Burlap Art?

Not sure that you can call slapping burlap in to a frame art....but we will go with it. During dinner last night...I got slightly creative and decided to add something to those empty frames in our living room. I utilized the leftover burlap I had in my fabric drawer....I simply measured the burlap to be slightly larger than the mat insert....I made sure that you could not see any edges once it was flipped over....I first tried taping the burlap to the mat itself. This proved to be a bad idea. Once it was in the frame it was lumpy and didn't give the smooth surface I was looking for. Therefore, I taped it to the frame back. I eye balled it to make sure it would still fit correctly in my mat. There you have it....burlap art!The frames are RIBBA frames from IKEA. The burlap provides some texture and is slightly darker than the wall color.
I love a project that takes 20 minutes:)

Infinity Tattoo, meaning and pictures


Infinity Tattoos - neverending possibilities of manifesting yourself. This tattoo design is best described as a figure eight on its side, it is used to denote that which is limitless and without boundary or end. The symbol as a tattoo would stand for the state or quality of being infinite. The concept of infinity first appeared as a mathematical conceit and was quickly adopted by philosophers. Historically and culturally, the infinity symbol is similar to mythological creatures such as Ouroboros, the snake that consumes its tail and is a creature without end. Circles and loops are reminiscent of the idea of life being conceived as an eternal, often times seasonal cycle, that endlessly repeats itself. In many eastern religions and belief systems the idea of endless reincarnation and planes of existence is similar.

OH Canada.

I went MIA for a week :) I took a last minute trip to Toronto for work last week. There was lots of work and zero time for blogging. Though the entire trip was a blast it was also very exhausting! All better now though. While in Toronto we did get to visit a few of the touristy sites...we had an event at The Hockey Hall of Fame where I got to show off my goalie skills.

And admire the Stanley Cup....We stayed in a hotel that was attached to the Rogers Center {where the Toronto Blue Jays play baseball}. The night we arrived the Blue Jays were playing the Yankees. Work gals...Emy and I ventured out on our own to go up the CN Tower....Very scary ride up but worth it for the awesome view.....

I missed Tal and Tils so much! Very happy to be home :)
