A Dog named SUMMER

The beautiful puppy silouhette is Summer.

She's Bing Bings niece! ;) (well... sort of! ha ha)

Pretty Little Girls

I love making mirrors to hang above little girls dressers.

(or sometimes next to their dresser if they aren't tall enough yet!)

This one is for a special little girl, Leah.

Lulu's Rescue Artwork

Last October, my husband and I made the decision to adopt a dog. We decided to use the rescue organization, Lulu's Rescue in eastern PA.

We have nothing but wonderful things to say about the amazing people that volunteer at Lulu's every week to save sweet puppies like Jersey. They put so much of their own precious time and energy into making a difference for one dog at a time.

Jersey is our pride and joy. He is a very happy lab mix with a big heart for everyone. He has become one popular boy. (he even has his own facebook page! http://www.facebook.com/people/Jersey-Buns-Dailor/100002471738952)

When we heard that Lulu's was hosting an Art Auction to benefit their organization we knew we had to get involved!

This pop art glass mosaic was inspired by Jersey himself! :)

I had to hang it up temporarily to make sure it 'worked'. But then I didn't want to take it down!! :( I think it looked pretty good in our hallway! ha ha

Anyways... best of luck to Lulu's this weekend! :) I hope you raise lots of money to help spay/neuter/save more puppies like Jersey.

Tuscan Grape Vines

The rolling hills with fresh plump Tuscan grapes! :)

Makes me want to kick back with a glass of wine!

I am amazed every time I finish a lamp and see the 'on' verses 'off'...

I think it's so cool how different it looks!

Van Gogh for JDRF

I made this mosaic for the JDRF Gala Fundraiser in New Brunswick.
My inspiration was Van Gogh's 12 Sunflowers Painting.
It measures 30" x 40". I used both store bought globs and hand made miniature globs for the seeds. The kiln my husband bought me for my birthday about 5 years ago comes in handy for things like that! :) I also used some round and square mirror tile. It has a lot of shine.



I had to include one with my dog Jersey! He was so sweet just laying around while I worked on it for so many hours.

A little Arizona inspiration is ALWAYS welcome in the dead of winter! :)
