Mississippi Ave







Man, I tell you, this is my second day of a reallllllly slow computer and it is enough to bring forth the mother of all swear words.
Anyway....
Went to Mississippi Ave. today, I have never been and I loved it! I have never been to the shop Flutter and still haven't really because it was closed....but I got a few shots through the glass. I have to go back!! And next door was another shop named Front Porch which was soooooo cute, too! I love this street. All I am posting tonight are the Flutter pics.
It has been raining all day and even though I love the rain my hair hates it :D

er...Jacinta


...was making monsters last night and I saw this pile of pink wool felt I had bought for rosy cheeks. But somehow the cheeks haven't worked out lately so I thought pink hair! A snow cone pile of pink hair! Yeah! So I made this monster head and hair and then I thought I just couldn't add on skinny legs again and I had this spider sketch handy, so I added spider legs which can be interpreted as sea thingies, He-man arms...I dunno. I love her funky repulsive allure, but next time I will make her truly girly and not so monsterish :D Just cuz that was the orginal vision, haha.
That X isn't a bow, but it looks like one. It's a pirate touch.
So meet Jacinta,he she wrestler prison matron...a helluva girl.

New Monsters




I posted some new monsters on Etsy...man my computer is sooo slow today. I have another monster to show you but it may have to wait.
What would happen if all internet went away??? Man, I shudder to think :D

Little Miss Poisoned





When you live in a boardinghouse filled with too many dark corners, dark whispers and tenants who can't look you in the eye, you never drink the tea.

Total D.I.Y










Like I said, It's funky and JUNKY :D But FUN :D


I made an inspiration board out of cardboard. Taped it together, painted it and then sealed it. It's all cardboard and I am not picky about what I use to make things stay put. I like tape, staples, needles....anything. Somehow I always feel like I need to make excuses or try to make people understand. I hate it. :D
A name like JunkerJane should say it all.

Funky and Junky


I am working on some inspiration board made from cardboard :D
I have all of these bits of paper, flyers, postcards, fabric samples etc etc etc. And I have no where to tack them. I know, go buy a corkboard....nope! I hauled out an old cardboard box, tape (cause I can't find any spare gluesticks) paint... and just went for it. I'll show you when I'm done.
