No matter where you go in life or if we are far apart,
a mother’s love will always follow because you left footprints on her heart.
NEW!
I like to entertain and have a drawer full of glass charms, and charms for every season. I got sick of not only having these charms take over an entire drawer of my dining room hutch, but I could NEVER remember which dang charm I ended up with.
Well, after a little brain work, I came up with a solution.
So, go toss those glass charms out - who needs 'em!?
Who needs little charms for your wine/cosmo glasses?! NO ONE! All you need are my latest designs, where I've made a "label" right on the glass. All you need to do, is write your guests name using a *sharpie and they'll know which glass is theirs the entire evening. No more wondering if this charm is yours. The best part is, when your guests leave, you take rubbing alcohol and a cotton ball and wipe the name off until your next dinner party.
Great for the Bride and Groom, the Birthday Guy/Girl or anyone that doesn't want to fiddle with silly little glass charms.
Designs and colors for your glasses are unique to your individual tastes.

Recreating History
I was given photos and asked to recreate "Frank" and "Lena" on dishes, including original signatures. The craft originally done back in the 70's was done using felt and glue. I have to admit, I myself did the same craft when I was a "Blue Bird" or "Campfire Girl".
A very caring and loving son, had these two special dishes made for his mother for her birthday.
Retirement Signature dish for 40 years of service!
AUTISM AWARENESS

RECITAL TIME
Here's a unique and thoughtful way to thank your child's dance teacher for a great year of dancing

First Communion

Auction Items
I kept myself busy last year with an auction for the local elementary schools. Twenty-six platters went up for auction, each with the children's fingerprint for their face. This item is always a huge hit with Moms and Dads and make such a wonderful keepsake.
Teacher Gifts
End of the school year seems a fitting time to show your childs teacher how much you appreciate them. For this dish, I worked closely with a mom who appreciated all that her daughters teacher did throughout the school year. Together we came up with this very unique design to thank her.
Later the teacher told me "she'll treasure it forever".
Be inspired by things around you, nature and yes, even food!
