A Glimpse of Shuntla's History

I started Shuntla shortly after my firstborn in 2007. My mother's DIY upbringing has made a huge impact on my life. Almost everything that comes through my door I have to do something to it whether it's paint, sew, glue or just tear up. If I can make it, I won't buy it. (Almost to a default) I may be jack of all trades but master of none. As years go by and different people enter my life, my market changes. It's been mostly jewelry lately but that wasn't always the case! As style and people change I'm ready to dive into more things once again. Here is just a glimpse of Shuntla's past (some in the form of terrible pictures) not including graphic/web design). I couldn't possibly list everything but here is some! Anything worth digging out again?

May I just claim that I know I am a project hoarder as there are so many more things I could add. I make everything and stop at nothing. May I also add this was years before Pinterest as I was cool before it was cool. 
Joking!

Shuntla DIY Lucite Tray

Image
I am crazy over lucite! Btw, acrylic glass is same thing as "lucite" when searching for items.  Every time I see clear lucite I buy it convincing myself it can be used for something. I really wanted one of those designer lucite frames but not only are they expensive but deciding on a pattern that is not interchangeable does not serve me well. Take these two (of many) for instance. 6" square for $35 (that site gets in the $100s for a plastic tray) And 12"x12" on SALE for $27 If you LOVED it you may buy, but of course I would wait until I find a way to make one myself. I was in Michaels for an entirely different purpose when I saw a row of lucite and thought they were trays. I found out it was a frame that fell down! Plus the 5x7 was only $4! It is an automatic tray. They have different sizes all cheaper than the designers of course. I wanted to share links but cannot find on Michaels.com. It is actually a joke that I am considering...
