My wall of Awesomeness...


Hi everyone, sorry theres been no posts for a couple of weeks- sometimes life just gets too busy! I have completed my ukulele which has, for now, joined my guitars on my wall of awesomeness. It's so little and cute next to the big boys. This one has been created with paper mosaic, paper covered beads, glass beads and other funky bits. This one doesn't have a name yet so if you have any great ideas let me know.
I also have a few paintings on the go, so as soon as they are finished I will give you a sneak peek.
