Once you allow your creative side to blossom... it opens up a whole new world you never thought existed!
We started with "Renaissance Rags" over 20 years ago... giving new life to vintage jewelry, laces and handbags... today, I look around our home and it seems we've expanded to just about everything :)
Thought I'd share two separate projects where an idea was found on the web and tugged at the heart strings until it materialized into our own "mendlbarr" version... take a peek...
Fell in love with these little pebble feet...

reminded me of the "hang ten" surf shop wear from the 80s...
Since my husband loves going to gem/ mineral shows, it wasn't hard to go off on my own adventure and explore the numerous vendors to find the perfect twelve labradorite stones... what fun!!

The possibilities are endless... how about making them in pink quartz? or your favorite stone/mineral?
The other project I wanted to share with you was this red truck with tree idea I found on one of my favorite blogs... Pink Postcard!

It took almost a year but I finally got around to it and this is my first version... an old cast iron farm truck! Love the idea so much, I have a bright red 1/18 scale 1951 Ford pickup on it's way for my second version...

told you... creativity is addicting :)
