Mixed Media - Mosaic/Collage/Paint
Ashamed to post this, but I am in a creative slump and tried something new. Can't win 'em all. Tried a collage, paint, mosaic mixed media on thin plywood. The shells and fish are cuz Russ lives near the beach in MD. Other found objects were pulled from the drawers of an old Singer sewing machine his Mo - Shea, my DD - gave me years ago when the kids were young - frog, jeans tag, digital clock, key, and the half beer bottle is cuz he loves to drink beer w/his friends most evenings after work. In his Christmas gift thank you note he said "Nana, just because I'm a guy doesn't mean I wouldn't like to have a piece of your art work". I wouldn't call this art, and I hope to stick to what I know in my next piece for his birthday.
I forgot to say that the "message in the beer bottle" isn't a cork as it appears. It is an old shopping list of DD's. It was in one of the drawers. I imagine she did the same as I used to do when I was cleaning my house - whenever I found something outta place, I stuck it in the nearest pocket - hiding place. I Mod Podged it to permanentize it and rolled it into the bottle.
hmmmmmmm, its difficult to say for sure but its feels.. maybe "unflowing" like your slump is in the piece??/ maybe you have exercised it from yourself with this work?
I have a piece like this too, got half way through it and stopped - just wasn't feeling it, I didn't throw it out though so maybe it will strike me to try it again oneday...
Russ is going to love that! So you've been in a slump too? Maybe it's the weather (in addition to the news; all the bad that's been reported lately). I've been in a slump since before Christmas. When the temperature got down in the 20s and stayed there for weeks, I just laid around unless I absolutely had to do something. I would actually go lay down during the day and watch TV. I could tell my husband was worried about me because I just do not ever lay around like that! And at my age, I can't afford to waste any time!!! When the weather warmed up several days ago, I forced myself to start a new project -- the mod guitar -- and I'm s-l-o-w-l-y getting back into it. I spoke to my good friend in Austin who also mosaics, and she too has been in a slump. Ladies, we must snap out of it and get busy! Spring is just around the corner. I need to get back into organizing, which I was doing before the cold weather.
Thanks, ladies. I'll give it to him, and since he knows nothing about techniques/proceedures, I think just the fact that his Nana took the time to make something for him w/be appreciated. SILVA - this project is what happens when I try to FORCE inspiration. Think I'll just wait for it to happen - usually does. Gonna work on altering a pair of my favorite slippers that I've taken to PV for evenings in my satin pajamas - they're too worn to go again, so out comes the fabric, beads, sequins and glue today - we'll see if I make a mess of those too.
INGEORGIA: WOW - that makes me feel better. My daughter, Suzie, beat up on me too, but I just can't give away something I don't like as much as I disliked that piece. Thank you, though. I haven't seen you post b/f. What do you do? W/love to see something from you. NANA - please run w/one of those ideas running around in your head. NT - I have one slipper covered w/bits of fabric and like what I've done. It took as much time to cut the bazillion beads off than to attach the fabric. Had to go to Hobby Lobby for embellishments, and can hardly wait to get started today. Spent lots of time on the net looking for more pointed toe, kitten heel mules. Lordy, those things are expensive - mostly on Ebay - pre-owned - only found one new pair, in my size but it wasn't offered in Buy Now, and I don't make bids on Ebay. Posting a picture of the WIP
Altered Slippers WIP
Nooooo Slow, don't throw it away! I think it's wonderful! C'mon, it's going to be the best conversation piece ever. I guarantee no one will come in Russ' house and not ask about the piece on the wall. You should give it to him and let him decide if he likes it or not. You can still make him something you like much better.
On the subject of slumps, I have not been in a slump. I've been in a crazy mosaic frenzy making these pendants:
I've made over 60 of them so far and haven't come near exhausting myself on them. They are soooo fun. After making such larger yard art items, I'm loving something I can do a) indoors where it's warm and I can watch TV, and b) quickly. I can make a dozen of these in one weekend. I keep getting caught up in, "just one more" itis. And my friends are going crazy for them. I sell them for $20 each. They cost me about $4 each to make. And because they're so much lighter and more portable than my concrete pieces, I'm planning on doing shows.
I definitely think the cure for slump is to try something completely different. SLOW I love how you're experimenting with clothing. It reminds me that we never know what will come next. Maybe doing GOG mosaics on indoor vases? You know, the cheap glass ones that you get when someone sends you flowers. Okay, I've been married 25 years. I ain't getting many flowers these days, haha. But you can pick those up at garage sales cheap. Or how about candle holders, or coasters?
LORI: That's what I keep telling myself - go BACK to mosaicing little things like the vases, boxes etc. That's how it all started. The house is so full of all those things, I have hardly any room left. I bought a litle shrine off a Flickr artist - Elsie - and scrambled to find a place on the wall for it, cuz there's absolutely NO table space left. I keep thinking when all else fails, I can do as you suggest. Right now I'm in a cloth mode - taking a break from traditional mosaics. I'm sure when I get to PV I'll be inspired again - it always happens.
Your pendants are lovely. Isn't it wonderful to be into something you enjoy so much you don't want to sleep?
LOL yes. Unfortunately, I have a day job so I only get to play on weekends. But your situation is one of the reasons I'm going to give craft shows a shot. I love making pendants and yard art, but I could use some help paying for the supplies, and then I seriously don't need tons of them. I hope the experience of doing a show is enjoyable because I'd like to keep making things, then selling the excess to pay for supplies to make more.
Slow I am sorry that you are throwing that piece out. I think you are too close to it because I know people who would pay goood money for that. But I do understand. If I'm not happy with something it has to go.
Well I do some GOG, some mosaic and a lot of other stuff. I have ADD and keep hopping from one thing to another. Have about ten things going at once. I'll try to get some photos but it can't promise it will be soon. Ya'll give me great inspiration ! Slow what size mules ?

Sizzix Vintaj Bigkick Die Cut Machine
Love the machine and can't wait to use it. However, with the amount of money i paid for the machine, I thought there would be at least one die and one blank stamp included with the machine so you can try it immediately. So note -- you buy this machine -- you also have to buy the dies and the blanks before you even try the machine out.Read More
Excellent value and product
I have had 2 other die cut machines, which I sold either to upgrade or because I was moving. I finally was able to purchase a new machine, and really liked the versatility of the Vintaj. As both a mixed media/paper crafts artist and a jewelry craftsperson, I felt this machine would be ideal. I was not disappointed. I feel the cuts are much cleaner and the metal embossing feature is amazing. This is the best price I have found for the Vintaj and shipping was quick, and free !Read More
Terrific price
I love using this rolling mill to create embossed and etched metals. This has kicked my jewelry making to the next level. This is the cheapest price on the machine and the shipping just saves you that much more.Read More
Fun and very useful
Practical and lovely machine. It's very versatile and easy to use, and it looks great. This is my first time playing with an embossing machine, and I was pleasantly surprised at how easy it is to get good results. I don't have experience with other machines of this kind, so can't offer a useful comparison, but am very happy with this.Read More

infant separating zipper
quilter46ppNovember 8, 2006
I am making a cute little jacket for a newborn boy and I wanted to use a separating zipper. What is a good source for a small separating zipper? I can find lots of big ones, but not small. Thanks for the help.
Here's a link to the online catalog at MyNotions.com. The catalog web address differs from the direct access address here:
They have an assortment of separating zippers in many colors and lengths: 10, 14, 16, 18, 20, 22, 24, 25 inches.
The 10 or 12 inch size should be about right for an infant jacket.

|Minimum Stay
|2 nights
A mile up a dirt road and twenty thousand miles from the cares of the world, the True World Bungalow is perfect for a relaxing getaway. Originally part of the Mojave Rock Ranch Resort, the bungalow is the epitome of "Joshua Tree Style", in which rustic, artistic and luxury elements combine in unexpected and delightful ways.
As you enter the front gate, you will be greeted by the bottle wall fish pond and blooming water lilies in season. There are private patios in the front and back, perfect for sunrise coffee and sunset cocktails. The bungalow shares a five acre property with the owner's home, and backs up to over 150 acres of desert wilderness, so you can literally hike out your door and explore a vast landscape of boulders, abandoned claim shacks and wildlife habitat.
The bungalow has two sunny bedrooms (one king, one queen), nicely appointed with down comforters, original artworks, plenty of closet space and views for miles. The custom woodstove (a work of art in itself) will keep you toasty on cool evenings and the sweet retro kitchen is well-equipped with everything you need to prepare a feast. Enjoy complimentary wi-fi, DVDs on the flat screen TV, or music from the CD player (or your iPod). In warm weather you can relax under the trees in the cowboy spa, laze in the hammock, or enjoy air-conditioned comfort indoors. And in every season you can count on star-filled nights, 50 mile views of Mt. San Gorgonio and Mt. San Jacinto and up close and personal encounters with a myriad of desert wildlife.
Joshua Tree National Park Visitors Center is 10 minutes away in the artists' community of Joshua Tree, where you can also explore the galleries and shops and grab a bite to eat. Please feel free to ask your hosts for suggestions or to arrange special trips, from rock climbing, trail riding, guided hikes and night sky viewing venues to massage, yoga, and spa treatments and visits to local artists' studios.
Our calendar is always kept up to date so you can check availabiltiy before making your inquiry. Please call or email with any questions – we look forward to your visit!
Keywords: 2 bedroom desert retreat created by artists
While living in New York, we first discovered Joshua Tree on a side trip after a Las Vegas convention. Business and family moved to Los Angeles and so did we, allowing us to spend many weekends in our beloved desert, just a short drive away. In 1999 we and our friends stayed in the Bungalow of the Mojave Rock Ranch, the resort that defined Joshua Tree Style. When this beautiful little home came on the market in 2003, we bought it (and its five acres) as our own weekend retreat. Three years later we sold our LA home, moved into our Joshua Tree Bungalow and opened the True World Gallery in town. Last year we finished a new home on our property, and we have opened up the Bungalow once again as a rental, renaming it the True World Bungalow.
For us, the desert is the true world -- a place to live in harmony with the environment, and with our wonderful community. We welcome you as our guests, and maybe one day as our neighbors!
Bonnie Kopp purchased this house in 2003
From the moment we drove up the driveway and saw the red bungalow, we knew this would be a magical place. What a gift is was to find you through Homeaway and to discover that you are friends with 2 of our favorite people. Wish we could have spend more time with you both (and Brodie!) but the park trumps everything!
We stayed here with our 2 kids (3 year old and baby) and our dog and had a great time! the house is beautiful and the views are breathtaking! we could hike right outside the back door and do some exploring. We were really impressed with the place and will definitely be back!
All the other reviews say it all, there is nothing really I can add...just wonderful!
We loved staying here. The bungalow is beautifully landscaped, with lots of private outdoor spaces. The inside is an artists' playground; every piece of furniture and accessory is something unusual and unique, from decoupaged tables to inset glass vases in the stucco walls. It was immaculate and fully stocked; we even preferred their(homegrown?) oregano to ours. Our dogs also loved the huge fenced yards. bonnie and George were delightful hosts; friendly, helpful and unobtrusive. We will definitely be back!
My boyfriend and I live between New York and Los Angeles. We were in dire need of a getaway and had never been to Joshua Tree. We found The True World Bungalow and were so delighted when we arrived. It was a very comforting and beautiful environment away from it all. Close enough to town but still with a feeling of being in the middle of the desert. The home was cozy and incredibly artistic and wonderful. The landscaping also was impressive. It felt so tranquil. The owners were wonderful people. Not intrusive and yet completely available and helpful if we needed anything. They were also so kind as to leave us a bottle of wine for our arrival! I would recommend this place to anyone seeking refuge and tranquility in the desert with a nurturing, inspiring and healing environment. My only complaint was wishing I could have stayed longer :)
This was our second time staying at the True World Bungalow. We enjoy hiking with our dogs. Bonnie and George have been very helpful in suggesting sites where we could take the dogs off lead. Brody (resident dog) is very welcoming to visitors both human and canine. The bungalow is in a rural area with dirt roads to explore and get away from the crowds, especially for those with 4WD. The yard is fenced, however, for just relaxing at the bungalow. The bungalow was very creatively designed, decorated, and maintained. A beautiful spot to spend quiet, private time.
We had an excellent stay at True World. Highly recommend this house.

Kansas court deals a blow to Tri-State's planned $2.8B coal plant
- Cathy Proctor
- Reporter- Denver Business Journal
- Email | Facebook | Twitter
The Tri-State Generation and Transmission Association's plan to help build a $2.8 billion coal-fired plant in Kansas received a blow Friday when the Kansas Supreme Court unanimously reversed the state's decision to grant the plant a critical air permit.
The high court said the Kansas Department of Health and Environment's decision to issue the permit for the 895-megawatt plant in December 2011 was flawed because the agency didn't consider the tougher federal Environmental Protection Agency ruled in place at the time, the Kansas City Star reports.
The court sided with the Sierra Club's arguments, reversing the decision to grant the permit and remanded the matter back to the health department. You can read the ruling here.
Tri-State, an energy cooperative based in Westminster, was backing the plant and working with Kansas rural cooperative Sunflower Electric Power Corp. to build the new coal plant near Holcomb, Kan. The new plant is planned for the site of an existing coal-fired power plant run by Sunflower.
Tri-State was supposed to get 75 percent of the power generated by the new coal plant.
Lee Boughey, a spokesman for Tri-State, said the wholesale power provider isn't giving up on the project, according to a story in The Topeka Capital-Journal.
"We respect the decision of the court in this very complex case involving state and federal laws and regulations and we will continue to work with our Kansas partners and [the Kansas Department of Health and Environment] to implement the instructions of the court as the permit process moves forward," Boughey said.
"We will continue to take the steps necessary to preserve and advance our option to participate in the project. It remains one of a number of resources under consideration to meet the long-term power needs of our member co-ops," he said.

91 points Stephen Tanzer's International Wine Cellar: "Bright ruby. Vibrant, perfumed aromas of cherry and raspberry liqueur underscored by cracked pepper and dried floral notes. Deeply concentrated, almost medicinal cherry and dark berry flavors gain sweetness with air, with chewy but harmonious tannins emerging. Finishes spicy and energetic, with excellent clarity and persistence." 93 points Robert Parker's Wine Advocate: "The 2005 Moonlight Run is a blend of 53% Grenache, 29% Shiraz, 10% Mourvedre, and 8% Cinsault sourced from vines ranging in age from 85-150 years. Yields were less than 1 ton per acre. Dark ruby-colored, the wine offers a fragrant perfume of mocha, coffee, black cherry, and black raspberry which leaps from the glass. Velvety on the palate, it has gobs of flavor, terrific concentration, and superior length in its hedonistic personality." (10/07)
Below is a listing of the wine review scores we frequently reference in our notes. While these sources remain an excellent source of information, we always recommend that you trust your own palate. Scores in these publications often represent the personal taste of an individual critic, which may not always coincide with your own.

Commencement 2013
10:00 a.m. EDT, Saturday, May 18
CIM's 2013 Commencement exercises will be held in Kulas Hall on Saturday, May 18 at 10 a.m. More than 130 students will receive their bachelor's, master's and doctoral degrees, along with Artist Diplomas and Professional certificates.
The ceremony will feature El Sistema founder Dr. José Antonio Abreu, as CIM presents him with an honorary doctorate. Founded in 1975 in a parking garage in Caracas, Venezula, with just 11 children, Dr. Abreu's program has been so successful at using music as a common language that it has been adapted in countries around the globe—including the United States. In Cleveland, CIM alumna and Cleveland Orchestra violinist Isabel Trautwein launched an El Sistema program at The Rainey Institute in 2011.
Dr. Abreu will give the 2013 Commencement Address to graduating students, with the assistance of a translator. Musical performances will include the Omer Quartet performing Mendelssohn; Andrew Manea, baritone, accompanied by Andrew Rosenblum, piano, performing Richard Strauss; and Matthew Allen, violoncello, and Pin-Hsuan Huang, piano, performing Cassadó.

Enjoy a musical fall season at the Opéra Garnier and the Sporting Monte-Carlo
The Groupe Monte-Carlo SBM is putting on some unmissable concerts throughout the season.
Lionel Richie will set the ball rolling with a chance to discover his new album, Tuskegee, named for the town in Alabama where he grew up. The music is a blend of influences from classical music, country music, gospel and R&B.
Then Hugues Aufray will share his own very personal world, with extracts from his latest work, with an evocative title - Troubadour Since 1948!
Alain Souchon will close this series of concerts with a moment of poetry tinged in turn by irony, melancholy and nostalgia.
Alongside these "star performers," Monte-Carlo SBM will be offering Harlem Swing, a Broadway show with rhythms that will transport the audience to a legendary jazz club in the Harlem of the 1920s. A show that combines passion with humor and immediately makes you want to dance!
Lionel Richie:
2 November - Opéra Garnier, Monte-Carlo 8.30 pm
3 November - Sporting Monte-Carlo - Dinner / Concert

16 November - Opéra Garnier, Monte-Carlo 8.30 pm
