It’s early February as I write this, and here in Colorado, that is pretty much smack dab in the middle of winter, but even in the wintertime, we can hit 70-degree temperatures, and today is one such day. So it seems the perfect time for a springtime project, and what says Springtime better than the…
It’s true: while other cats are lounging on designer velvet cat couches, frolicking in fancy catios, or using hundred-dollar self-cleaning privies, our cats spend their days in a room full of trash. To be clear, it’s not the hoarding kind of trash but rather what I like to think of as beautified and use-ified trash….

I like to believe that I create innovative items from unlikely materials. Perhaps you will agree? Like many of my projects, today’s starts with an empty soda can that becomes a cute little ant creature. You can check out the detailed tutorial in this video or read on for a quick step-by-step overview. Step 1…
I like to think of myself as an inventor or, better yet, a mad scientist of sorts. I create, dream, and draw blueprints in my head, mostly during restless nights when I have trouble falling asleep. Sometimes, when I am feeling particularly daring and against the approval of my childhood art teacher, I even sketch…
Well, I have gone and done it again. I think my latest project is pretty cute, but as always, it might come across as a little complicated. So, I will break it down into a three-step process. For this post, I am primarily going to concentrate on the final step, which is the assembly of…
