Recently I’ve been pretty darn inspired to give word burning a go. At some of my more recent art shows I’ve seen a lot of stunning work that combines wood burning and paints. I can’t imagine this being any kind of profitable endevour for me personally, but I am thinking I have a chance at making something beautiful.
I picked up my first wood burning kit yesterday at Michaels (gasp – the horror of it all). I was fortunate enough to get a gift certificate so I didn’t feel all that guilty paying their ridiculously high prices for my newest tool. It sure looks an awful lot like my soldering iron, but a hell of a lot less grungy and beat up.
Stay tuned. More details as this craft develops.

I haven’t had much time to do anything super fun or crafty recently. My husband and I have been busy busy packing up our packed apartment. The silver lining in this whole situation is that I’ve uncovered lots of vintage treasures. I’ll be adding some of these fantastic re-finds to my Etsy over the next few days.
Here’s a sneek peek at what I’ll be offering.
