Perfume Bottle Art On The Cover Of Just Steampunk, vol 4!


Making The Cover Of 
Just Steampunk Magazine, vol 4

I just love cutting apart and decorating bottles, some big, some small.  It began years ago, when my son hauled some up from an old farm trash pit on the property that we owned.  Since then, I have found treasures at tag sales, and friends and family have sent a few pretty bottles my way.

Over the years, I have published about the transformation process and have taught workshops at retreats like CREATE and Art Is You. However, this month, I was thrilled to see my reptilian bottle on the cover of Just Steampunk Magazine, vol 4!  I am still pinching myself.....how terrific is this?

Other views of my bottle are seen inside the magazine, along with pictures of some of my other work.  Thank You Just Steampunk editorial staff for all your help and support!
