Fun with teabags I do love teabag art! Yesterday I began a new page in my beautiful Organic Journal, by decorating a dozen teabags to stick down in a grid pattern as a kind of teabag design sampler. I kept the colour palette limited to black, white and copper (gorgeous metallic acrylic paint)…
Completing the second page Today I completed the second page in the Organic Journal - more or less a revamp of page 1 which came out so completely different from what I'd planned, that I decided to make another attempt! This page ended up different as well, but in a good way. When…
Completing the first page Last night I completed the first page of my Organic Journal. I had a plan in mind, how the page would look when finished, and it turned out completely different! This was because of several mistakes I made. I look on this page as a steep learning curve in…
Organic Journal I made a start on my Organic Journal today. For details of this exciting book, please see this post. A collection of collage papers. On the right, one of my music sheets painted with coffee. In the centre, a scratch paper with marks created by cleaning off my paintbrush - this…
Teabag Mini-Album Number Two After setting this aside for a period while I was busy with other things, I was keen to get back to it and complete it. Please refer to this post for details of recent progress. What I intend to do in this current post is to show the photos…

Completing the completion! When I did my previous post, I reported that this storage unit was complete - until I decided to order a couple more boxes of the trays and really complete the job! (This photo is of the original sets I bought.) There are six trays in each box, with three…
Ink Storage Unit Today I completed the construction of my revolving ink storage unit. This latter part of this project, making the storage for my spray inks, was much more troublesome than I had hoped, and as a result it took much longer than I'd hoped, too. It isn't quite as neat and…
Storage for my spray inks It's been a good few days since I posted. I have been working hard on my ink pad/spray storage unit. This job has proved to be a lot more protracted than I had hoped, but I am on the home stretch now. From my previous post, you will…
