I’m having a raffle, consisting of: an 11×7 canvas, a beautiful handcrafted wood box, a photo mug, and a copy of my book. All you have to do is come to the showcase! If you purchase the tickets before 6 PM, May 22, you will be entered to win twice!

The video above is a trunk table I’ve been working really hard on to get ready for the showcase. I’ve inserted a couple of before photos below for comparison.

The two doors below will be part of the backdrop for my showcase. They were plain, white doors when I started.
