STINK!

Yes, StInK! It's stink bug time and this year they are full force.

I've heard that this bug is fairly new to America. In the 1990s, it was said they were first found in Allentown, PA and they quickly spread from there. I had never seen a stink bug until I moved to New Hampshire in 2003 and was surprised they moved up north through Massachusetts, while I lived there.

I would LOVE to know how to get rid of them. They are one of the creepiest bugs (ticks being my number one creepiest). They can crawl in from the weirdest places.

Special Panel Finally Framed

Not loving the frame. It's for photos and I need a canvas frame, but to see one at this point one has to do what one has to do! LOL! ≤

I have several panels finished but not framed. When they are, I will share the pieces with the light shining through.

This panel was created to showcase a sand dollar given to be by a very good friend. She picked it up off the beach the last time she was visiting her place in FLA. I loved the way it turned out, so I found another sand dollar and made one as a Christmas gift for her (which I will share when framed 😆 ).

Pieces used in this 11x14" stained glass panel are; stained glass, sand dollar, shells, sea glass, and glass nuggets.

I also hope to create another to one day sell in my Etsy shop.

More Halloween Nails

While I slowly chip away at my latest stained glass piece, I am also polishing up my nails! Art nails last a little more than a week so it's fun changing them.

Nail Stamping

With Sharpie coloring!

I let the stamped image on the stamper dry and then I colored it using sharpies diluted with alcohol. After the colors dried, I applied a clear coat. Once all the layers dried again, I applied the image onto the nail like a decal!

Halloween Fun DIY Art Nails

Such a great time of year and this is a creative way to "nail" it (Oh, that was a bad pun).

I combined water marbling, stamping and plain old polish for these 5 nails. (Plates used: Preen Party 01 and Winstonia #116).
