The pillows are 2 large pashminas bought on the streets of NYC for about $5 each - couldn't find the right color in teh fabric stores so.... inserts are 2 regular bed pillows per green pillow - again bought on the streets of NYC - the black squares are leather from a piece i had bought at Mood Fabrics a while back but could never figure out what to do with...

this is a closer view of the harlequin patterning i did on the photo wall... was very easy to do - just a bit of patience, a lot of masking tape & 2 quarts of white paint - one flat & one gloss...

Found this mirror on the street in NYC - carted it around with me for an afternoon before getting it home - popped out the old dirty glass & replaced it with the pieces shown here which i silver-leafed on t he back to make them look a little more antique-ish & old.

my living room with a fire going on a cold winter night.

Again, with my fake screen printing technique. I spent HOURS doing these, but it was all for a good cause. When the SPCA would hold adoption events at Petsmart and the like, people wouldn't always be able to tell which animals were pets and which were up for adoption. This was my cheap (free to them) solution. I didn't sew any of these vests or bandannas at the time, but I applied vinyl stencils and painted them (3-5 coats on each). At one point, over 50 dogs sported these in a parade in downtown Kalamazoo, Michigan.

It was all a labor of love. I miss the SPCA of SW Michigan.
