TEASER!

Happy Sunday everyone!  Tomorrow, the amazing CASASUGAR.COM is showing a little slide show of my house to celebrate the launch of THE BIG ASS BOOK OF CRAFTS 2.  I'll make sure to link and share photos with all of you here.  Just for fun, I'm teasing you with a photo of the outside of my craft house.  All the photos are by my old friend, Jimmy Cohrssen who also photographed the beauty shots for Big Ass Crafts 2!  He is an amazing photographer and you should check out his work.  He is  the official photographer for Louis Vuitton.

In this little house is where my magic happens.  I hope you get a chance to look through 

THE BIG ASS BOOK OF CRAFTS 2!

And tune in tomorrow.

KRYLON.COM ROCKS!

Hey everyone, I'm OFFICIALLY with Krylon.com now as a spray paint guy/expert?/guru?  Ok, I'm really just a guy who loves a good spray paint and I like KRYLON! I can't help it! It's a great product and I can't seem to get through the day without it.  Periodically I'll be sharing a project with them that uses their product.  We have 2 simple projects up now and more to come. Go check it out!

This is a simple shoe makeover from THE BIG ASS BOOK OF CRAFTS 2.  REMEMBER, There are more than 150 projects in the new book so go out and grab it.........and if you see me, grab me too.  I like that!

P.S.  I can't stop thinking of the GoGos when I see this shoe.
