My daughter Tiffani works at an Italian Restaurant here in town. She saves me wine corks because I LOVE them. They look so awesome on these frames.
About Me
- Dominguezfam
- My name is Lorie Dominguez. I am happily married with 6 kids. I've lived my whole life here in the Mesquite area. I now live on our little ranch here in Scenic, Arizona with my family and all of our animals. It was here in Scenic that I found my new craft that I really enjoy, that is making crafts with recycled items. This hobby is referred to as "Trash to Treasure", these items are down the right hand column of my blog. I love what I do, and I hope you will also enjoy it! My Items make great gifts! So buy it and try it. You can see pretty much all that I make down the right hand side of my blog. If anyone is interested in placing an order with me, I take checks, cashier check, and money orders. You can place your order in a comment, or email me at Loriejuan@hotmail.com. Thank-you

I love recycled things:)
People that I see on the street in our small town know me as the "Trash to Treasure" lady. They give me bags and boxes off things they don't want to throw away. They know I will find a purpose for it:) A friend of mine named Julie brought me an assorted box of treasures. In the box was a popped bladder ball punching bag.
Well, this is what I turned it into, a cute little purse:) I love my job!!

Saturdays at Tuacahn:)
Tuacahn has always been one of my favorite shows because of the beautiful surroundings.
The weather is usually perfect. (Except for the wind)
But, you just can't beat the view.
My kids fight over who gets to go with me each week. This week Jeremiah & Jazmyn won.

First Friday in Las Vegas
I have a new favorite show that I have been doing since the 1st of January. It is called First Friday. It is in the Arts District in Las Vegas. It is held on the 1st Friday of every month. It has been going for about 10 years I was told. They close down several blocks and it is wild and CrAzY. (I love it)
They have live bands and DJ's. People are dancing on every street corner. It is a show that I will continue to do for a long time:)
