watercolor fun!

Take a stencil and trace name, saying, etc. Next watercolor lightly dabbing with papertowels, add some table salt to absorb color and give faded look. Go back with sharpie to stipple and detail!

Mosaics




 Did some mosaics with some girlfriends....used a variety of broken up glass plates, a large wooden cutting board, and a tub of grout and went to work! Put a mirror in the center and voila! Such a fun project to break glass and get your aggression out! :)

Tree Hugger










I will admit i love trees. But I don't hug them, intact I often feel like they are embracing me, as I walk beneath their protection i feel them all around me lurking down for a big bear hug.

Sewing Kit

I just got a new sewing machine, had to have my tools organized and stylin. I LOVE mason jars, they are one of my weaknesses- therefore I couldn't resist when I saw this idea. This little sewing jar can make a great present too! Very easy to make...see!









 




New Years Resolution


This is not the end
It is the beginning
The beginning of commitment
The beginning of intentionality
The beginning of appreciating small things

This is not the beginning
It is the end
The end of laziness
The end of making up excuses
The end of running away

This is not the end
It is the beginning
The beginning of singing with joy and praise daily
The beginning of trusting with all, ALL
The beginning of finding rest

This is not the beginning
It is the end
The end of trying to do everything on my own power
The end of putting you last
The end of dreaming

This is NOW
and you are HERE.
