Dressing Up
Getting dressed up is a giant pain! We’re going to a wedding this weekend and since nothing in my closet fits anymore, I had to buy a dress. (I just have to stop here for a moment and pat myself on the back for having lost around 45 pounds so far!) Shopping for said dress […]

SCPCG 10 Year Anniversary Celebration
The Southern Connecticut Polymer Clay Guild celebrated our 10 year Anniversary a few weeks ago. The photos have been hiding on my camera, so I thought I would share the lovely display of members’ work. They’re not stellar photos, but they give you the flavor of the displays.
Work by yours truly, Debbie Goodrow, […]

Laughing at myself
You can laugh at me too. I made such great promises to get some things done in the studio, and to start on the scribble beads tutorial. I have made zero progress. I haven’t even managed to tuen the lights on in the studio, let alone move books around. I told my sister that I […]

Time to Dust
I haven’t written too frequently lately because my creative work has been at a standstill, and since that’s primarily what I write about here… well, you get the picture. I don’t really think I am fully in an artistic block, but some kind of inertia has definitely taken me over. So, I […]
