Merry Christmas

May the Reason of the season fill you hearts and homes this Christmas.

May His peace and joy surround you and if you've lost someone dear... may the thought of them celebrating Christmas in heaven comfort your souls. (how amazing that would be)

Have a wonderful week everyone

More balloon fun

We found these see through balloons and just had to experiment! Semay put pompoms in hers and I put sparkles in mine. I love the results.

Now I just hope the sparkly one doesn't bust because what a glittery mess that will be...

Hope you find some inexpensive FUN today!

Glazing

I am learning how to glaze and oh it is so much fun - you just never know what you'll get. Here are a few paintings I've done with this technique. The result is amazing. Luminous and almost "stained glassy" colours. Hope you like it!

Missing solitude

As the holiday season is upon me I feel the crunch, the rush, the sugar high, the excess, the too much already!


And all I want is the quiet, the hush, the solitude, the paintbrush in my hand, the hum drum of daily living, the slow down and just sit and be feeling to return.


So with that I remember this day back in the fall, such a quiet day and I breathe deep and know that this amazing...glorious...magical Christmas season...will also pass... and I will sit yet again to enjoy the quieter seasons of the year.

May you find a moment of peace and quiet today

Balloon Painting

What can be easier and more fun than this. Blow up the balloons just a little bit, dab in paint and go for it ROLL, DAB, SPLATTER. The added bonus is beautiful balloons after the paint dries on them.

Happy crafting with your kiddies today!
