The Infant Jesus from Prague came to me after he walked off the dresser he'd been standing on for 20 years! He fell to the floor on his side and broke a thumb, a finger, and his pedestal. He and I talked about guidance getting a thumb back on to look like a thumb!

I just have to share this before and after. A client had this 100 year old oil that a great-great aunt had painted. It had a tear in the canvas too. So, I patched the hole (and will give it to an oil painter to paint), and cleaned the painting. I am thoroughly astonished at the difference!

I brought this cat home from Santa Fe the same month that my Cleo passed about 8 years ago. It got knocked off its perch when I was cleaning the patio last week and shattered. Because to me, it was too dear to throw away, I fixed it. Now it's back in its proper place, where I can see it, and remember Cleo.

Here are some images of Susie's frame at her home in Arkansas with her grandparents back where they belong! The first view is from the front door, then the dining room door, and finally a nice close-up!

This antique frame was a flea market steal at $7 for the new owner, but it had a lot of cracks and was missing a flower. I made it better!

The owner of this greyhound bus emblem wanted me to fill the holes and try to match the texture of the aluminum. This took many tries, but he liked how it looked when I finished. This 40 year old piece will go back on his bus!

The Danish kitty has returned and now is getting its cracks and crevices filled up. Last, it will be painted to disguise, as best possible, the little inevitable cracks. Update: Kitty was returned to its happy owner today!

A friend brought this little mosaic back from a trip to France. For some reason she didn't notice that the dome on the shorter building had just a funky ink drawing under clear glass. She asked me to finish it, which I did with the blue tiles, millifiori, and the orange finial.
