  • This is the top to a pedestal table.
  • This is a doll table and chair.  I painted it, mosaiced it and covered the chairs with matching fabric. 3
  • This is a birdhouse for indoor decor only.  Each side of the roof and all four sides are different, but with the same color scheme.  I used a glass compote for the pedestal and then painted some of the etched part and added jewelry.
  • This is a plant stand I mosaiced.  This was photographed before I grouted it.
  • This is a silver tray with a Scottish theme.  I stayed at  a Scottish Bed and Breakfast on vacation and took this project along to work on and finished it in one weekend and left it for the Innkeeper as a token of my appreciation. 2
  • This is a Victorian Woman theme picture frame.  I bought all the objects in a box lid at an auction and decided to incorporate them into a mosaiced frame. 1

  • This is a two-shelf pie-crust table. 1

  • This is a commission piece I did for a woman.  This table was her grandmother's and the top was not in the best of shape.  She wanted it painted white and told me to do any design I wanted out of pastel colors.  When she came to look at it, she was overwhelmed because one of the dishes (unbeknownst to me) was some identical dishes that her grandmother had. 13
  • This is a curio cabinet that is heavy and sets on a table.  It is made out of beautiful china, stained glass, and kiln-fired butterfly designs. 2
  • This is a long (48") bench that I painted and then created with china dishes, glass mosaic gems, and stained glass.  I left much of the blue top exposed for interest. 5
  • This was originallly a silver hammered aluminum lazy susan which I painted and then designed with china dishes and stained glass. 2
  • This is wooden bed tray that a woman had me do for her.  Her daughter is named Rose and she wanted a Rose theme with not too many roses.  She also wanted it whimsical. 3
