Trying new stuff
Posted on January 8, 2010 at 12:46 pm
Hey Guys. Of course I am always playing with more animal paintings like my newest one above, but I want to learn some new things now.

Here is the new paper mosaic I promised you.
The title also has to do with my lost feeling right now. I know I need to paint some more animals, I am working on that. For now though, I have played with making supplies because, although they can be time consuming, they do not take a lot [...]

At our house, we LOVE Halloween. We also love to make stuff, or at least Mady & I do. Here is a garland we made with dyed coffee filters, styrofoam balls & embroidery floss.

Here are some Party Poms I bought [...]
