WINDOWS WITH A VIEW - These translucent window scenes are hand-painted on custom-sized Plexiglas for placement onto a home window or RV window. The windows are specially commissioned creations painted by Toni to fit a specific window with a specific scene.
These two pictures show views of both sides of a painted stained-glass-look sliding glass pocket-door to the bedroom in a 5th Wheel RV. This window was created from the recent Tiffany postage stamp.

Silhouette Lampshades - These lampshades have hand-painted scenes on the inside of the lampshade which only show up when the lamp is turned on.
Some examples of the hand-painted scenes are shown below on different sizes and styles of lampshades. These lampshades can also be specially commissioned with scenes of your own choice. As you can see, I painted these with various wildlife scenes. I also plan to paint flower, birds, angels, and seasonal decorative scenes, for example.

Wedding Champagne Flutes -
These champagne flutes were specially hand-painted for a friend's daughter's wedding, designed to match the wedding invitation.
Baby Blankets - Toni created these baby blankets with specific babies and their families in mind. Each baby blanket has either applique aspects in their designs or are quilted designs. Most are made of hand-sewn flannel with quilt batting inside; however, the baby turtle baby blanket is made with two pieces of fleece with fleece turtles machine sewn on one side.

Julian's Baby Blanket (machine) Mason's Baby Blanket (by hand) Taylor's Baby (Turtle) Blanket (machine sewn - fleece)
The dad of these three boys loves aquariums and fish; and since Mason was born in Hood River, Oregon, I created a wind-surfing design.
Pillows - These pillows are made with little fleece flowers and leaves appliqued by hand with hand embroidered stems. The pillow cover material is very soft and smooth to the touch. Toni has many more designs in mind but is always interested in new design ideas and methods and materials to use to create them. If you have a special design or idea for a pillow you'd like to have made for you, please let her know.

Ceramics - As you can see, Toni enjoys creating artwork with a lot of detail to the designs. These ceramic pieces were carefully created in minute detail, using pictures she admired as the basic design. The Easter egg dish had a pre-formed raised design.

The first two dishes shown here are 7 inch sushi plates.
Fused-Glass Creations - Creating with fused-glass is a newer method of creating artwork for Toni. She has found that it is best to start with a mental image of the desired finished product, rather than attempting a random artsy creation.
These two dishes were fused so the glass flattened completely together and then the fused-glass item was fired again in order to shape it into the desired shape.
