Exciting News!

One of our creations is being given away on the lovely SUNNY VANILLA'S blog!! Make sure you check it out here!!

Jen from SUNNY VANILLA is celebrating a "blogiversary" - blogging for one year this week! She is a sweetheart and I have loved to getting to know her! Congratulations SUNNY VANILLA! We love you and love your blog and creations!!

Mr Safety Man (hubby) and I are just starting our business and getting it to grow. We love a lot of different mediums for our art forms - mostly concentrating in clay (porcelain, raku), glass, yarn (crocheting/knitting) and textile... thus the reason we're called 'mArrineR's monTage' - creating ART to beautify life!!  We are enjoying every minute of our little store. It's been a dream of mine and Mr Safety Man just jumped in with both feet to help satisfy his artistic side and work alongside me. Our two young daughters LOVE being a part of mArrineR's monTage. It is wonderful to see their artistic personalities blossom while mummy and daddy work on our artwork!!

Welcome to everyone coming from Sunny Vanilla!! We are so happy to have you visit!!
This blog is going through a bit of a transition - but I hope to have a few crafts, goings-on with mArrineR's monTage and musings on life as a mom of two girls!!

Glad you're here!!

Ooooo I want this quilt so badly...

One of my ABSOLUTE FAVORITE pattern designers is Chelsea... from PINKFIG... I purchased her two shirt patterns (among a bunch of others) - and LOVED how easy they were to make... and let me tell you - I had basic knowledge from "Home Ec" and my mom and grandmother... but I needed a new creative outlet - some fun, funky - not the 70's version of patterns for my girls... AND BOOM! I fell in love with PINK FIG!!!

She has a lovely quilt that she is doing a Holiday giveaway on her blog... with her new line of fabric (which I SOOOO soooo sooo sooo soooo soooo need - even though I have so much fabric...). I am totally addicted to beautiful fabric and her line IS gorgeous!!! Check out this lovely quilt...

Look at that ADORABLE fabric!? HEAVENLY!

Ooooo I just want it so badly...I NEVERrrrrrrrrrr win these blog giveaways... but I am just really hoping and praying that this one will be won by yours truly... OH I CAN HOPE!!! It would be so nice to end this tragic year with something wonderful...

I have been working on my latest PinkFig pattern...The Rosie Posie Ruffle Pants... for my BooBooBear! I cannot wait till these are complete!! THEY ARE SO CUTE!

Check out Chelsea's blog (here) and her Holiday giveaway... but just remember... I NEED TO WIN!!!
Fingers and Toes crossed!!!
