“If I could wish for my life to be perfect, it would be tempting but I would
have to decline, for life would no longer teach me anything.”

The first wishing star was made for a gallery show on mixed media. After
the show I brought the work back home, where my youngest child asked if
he could have it in his room for a little while. I said, of course you can, but
why? He had been having nightmares for a few weeks, and he said that he
thought that the star would protect him at night and keep his bad dreams
away. Needing a good night's sleep as badly as he did I hung it in his room
that very day.
Because the stars are made with tons of mirrors, glitters, reflective metals
and glass marbles they reflect light even in a dark room with just a night
light on. It worked like magic, no more bad dreams.

Time travel with me to the present, four years later...my son comes into the
studio and asked out of the blue, Mom, why don't you make magic wishing
stars anymore? Kids need magic and art too. Maybe there is a kid out there
(or a grown up kid too :)) that might really need a wishing star, maybe you
could make some for those other kids too.

That's just what I did, I started making stars. I have three so far, two are
ready for sale, this is one of them.
So, do you know someone who needs a little magic and art in their lives?
Well, here at BAD! Kitty we aim to please, so no worries, we have you
