While my house was being built i slept in the back of my pick up, and bathed in the old house that had electricity.

I had my house built on 3 acres of land i bought in 2000 ,with an old house on it running water and electric.I really wanted a round house but i settled for 3 round windows.

Had fun painting my staircase

Painted kitchen table

Livingroom

I rust dyed these curtains by wrapping rusty objects around the fabric and wetting it with vinegar,then covering with plastic and checking it and rewetting with vinagar until you are happy with the patterns from the rust.Then i hand paint over on top with acrylic.

I took on the job of painting my staircase to look like stone, one step at a time, day by day.

My new kitchen cabinets , stripped down and re- painted, Painted the walls periwinkle blue

My new kitchen cabinets , I bought this one and painted it red to go with my new painted walls

Painted my rolling cabinet

After the bathroom was finished i continued with the grout into the kitchen. I colllected broken pottery from friends who did ceramics and mosaic my counter top.

My fridge is my album of family and friends.

Each year i choose a creative project in my house, It took one month two people working everyday. I had broken tile,mirror,and plates everywere, my poor cat trippy cut her paw and needed stiches.

After several years i had outgrown my little house or 16'x28' and added on another bedroom,bathroom, and studio.
