Every direction

Tuesday, May 5th, 2009

My mind is swirling with projects! (which is a good thing right?)  It’s how I’m my thoughts are arranged … in every direction like the bands of the ball.  (more on that later in the post)  I’ve got so much on the go, but it sure feels good to be working on all things creative….

For work, I’m helping jewelry designer, Sandy Comstock of Toby and Max, with some new ‘one of a kind’ designs, using her sterling elements, and fun things like pearls and precious gems.  I guess I’m playing guest designer for a few things – that’s fun!  I’m also working on a brand spank’n new design for her website – it’s going to be pretty!  I hope to have that done in a few weeks, but it seems that’s the first thing that gets pushed to the side when I get busy.  Cross your fingers that I’ll have it for June.  Here’s a plug for her…. stop by her online store and use code TracyToldMe for 10% off!  Good till the last day of 2009 – woo hoo!

rubber-band-ball-2In the studio I’ve got 2 mixed media paintings on the go… 3 knitting projects (if you can believe that – since I’m normally quite challenged with that kind of thing), a new caged doll that I’m constructing from scratch, and 2 sewing projects!  Holy cow – has Martha Stewart invaded my soul?  The art is just in my blood, but domestic artsy crafty stuff like knitting and sewing is not my forte… but I’m sure having fun.

Oh, are you wondering about the rubber band ball?  The photo is kinda fun hey?  The first in my series of office supplies that I think would be fun, framed in an office or studio.  I love office supplies, and hardware store goodies – especially wing nuts – I really love wing nuts!  Maybe that will be my next series… I just can’t turn off my brain these days!

What are you working on?  Share the link to your photos and blog posts :)
