Boho Boquet Art Journal Page

I love Gwen’s new stencils. I love her old stencils. I love the fact that she’ll probably have more stencils in the future. (I don’t have any inside information, but I can’t imagine a world in which this is not the case.) Not only do I love her stencils, but I love printing them on …

Longing – An Art Journal Page

by lshoupupdated on May 22, 2018May 24, 20182 Comments on Longing – An Art Journal Page

This journal spread was an expression of longing. “What are you longing for?” you might ask. What do we all long for? Longing for things that are past or improbable or somehow out of reach. The feeling is far from unique. The illustration I chose does not have to be interpreted as longing, but it …

Bohemian Flower Pot

Every spring I get excited about growing things. Fresh leaves. Plants at the grocery store, home repair store, roadside stands and sell everything discount shops. Every year I get the bug. Buy some plants. Well, that’s about it. So I am the least likely person you will ever ask to housesit your plants. Or manage your …

Boho Meets Boro Bag

by lshoupupdated on April 28, 2018April 28, 20188 Comments on Boho Meets Boro Bag

I love Bohemian style. Years ago a guy with a green mohawk taunted me by saying with a sneer “You’re so Boho!” I laughed because I didn’t think that was an insult. In fact, I wore it as a badge of honor. Boho is a style that I love.   Shabby Chic collide) and so many …

The Wheel of Karma Drop Spindle

by Lynda Shoupupdated on January 29, 2018January 10, 201814 Comments on The Wheel of Karma Drop Spindle

Many of my projects start as ideas for one project and end up an entirely different object in the end. This project has flown far from the concept.  It all started because I was cleaning, well clearing, at the end of the year. I came upon a great stash of CDs that had really served …

Bohemian Paper Vase

by Lynda Shoupupdated on January 29, 2018December 27, 201710 Comments on Bohemian Paper Vase

I’ve been taken with the beautiful paper vases that grace the origami scene for quite some time. While I admire that stark esthetic of rice paper and black or indigo ink, anyone who has been visiting this blog won’t be surprised to know that I just couldn’t follow the trend. Mine vase was going to …

  • Been having fun making these cuffs with a labyrinth stitched in the middle. That way when someone asks you “what time is it?” You can reply “Time for some grounding” and get right to it. Many of my labyrinth items will be in my Etsy shop after the labyrinth class I am teaching on @making_co app on Tuesday. There’s a 10% sale for the rest of the month so grab them while you can. #labyrinth #embroidery #fabricaccessories #meditative #grounding #making #makersmovement #makersgonnamake
