What is a "Lizzborotory"?
My brain is a wild place that comes up with some weird ideas, creative experiments, if you will.
This is my space to share those things with the world.
So, in its simplest version, its me!
What should I expect around here?
That's a loaded question.
Art, definitely art.
Probably really shiny ridiculous art in every color of the rainbow. Best to just expect the unexpected because I never really know how, when, or what will bring inspiration. If that sounds like something you might be into, please, tag along. We can collect, hoard, and use all the art supplies we can get our hands on.

FAQ
How did you come up with the Stained Glass Embroidery? I've never seen embroidery with glass before.
I started dipping my toes into embroidery in about 2021 and I was hooked. When i got my first box of glass things just kind of clicked and I made my first piece with scraps in the same year. I knew that I wanted to make something I had never seen before. That's really how I try to approach anything I'm making.
Do you take commissions?
Commissions are hard for me because I have to be really into what I'm making. I find inspiration in great ideas though, so always shoot your shot and bring the cool ideas on.
What's your "Why?"
I'm still looking for that answer. I follow what makes me feel alive inside and hope that it resonates with someone else. I think art should be available and accessible for anyone, so I do my best to have some variety in everything I make. I'm inspired by everything I've ever learned, no medium is safe. I try to take every skill I gather onto the next project to see how it can be elevated.
And I'm not here for the "I'm not creative" excuse. Come hang out and I can show you that you can make whatever you put your mind to.
Care Instructions
All pieces should be handled with as much care as possible, particularly the ones made with glass.
Because some pieces may be made with scrap pieces of stained glass, there is a chance they could be sharp. I do my best to prevent any sharp edges getting through, but it can happen.
✦✦✦
All handmade items should be admired from a distance and not overly handled.
✦✦✦
Most pieces should be kept away from children and pets.
✦✦✦
It is recommended that pieces not be kept in a damp environment such as a bathroom. Once placed or hung, the only care needed is a possible dusting.
