I’m Cyndi, and I’ll be your host. Come travel with me through a mixed media wonderland, where no materials are considered too strange to use in making something!
My constant cry as a young child was, “Please Mommy! Don’t throw that out. I can make something out of that!” No surprise that years later, it became the cry of my daughter as well (pictured above). It’s wonderful having a kindred spirit to share with. I hope that you each have someone in your life to share your passions with, and I hope that you’ll come and share them with me as well.

I’m proud to say that my father still has the pencil holder that I made him in first grade…a can wrapped with two colors of yarn. Seeing that on his desk for (mumble mumble) years gives me great joy too :)
When I was 9 in third grade, we made a paper weight with pencil holder out of a piece of wood and painted it with nice pictures. Mine was a boy. I still have it at home and it brings me joy just to stare at it.
Whoa! I don’t suppose you’ve got a picture?
Reminds me of a project I did called “Strange Valentine” – Mine was a bunch of broken electrical things nailed to a board and turned on. These were all then painted erradically and then illuminated with a blacklight. It was entitled “Broken Hearts still work”
