CIJ ornaments for me. Dgs wants to learn counted cross stitch, so I will most likely spend time with him on that.

I am working on 2 projects at the moment, during the day, a CCS like I did last week that I will frame for my self and at night time I am working on a crocheted rug. I would like to cull all the wool I have here and that is a good way of doing it.

I picked up canvas to do a poured acrylic art project. I want to use the colors in my downstairs shower curtain.

No I have not. I'm not sure how to post photos here. I'll have to get my photos downloaded on my computer and post on FB. Thanks for asking.

Only crafting recently was making end of year gifts for all of DS's classmates - just made simple tag strips on computer and printed - then wrapped around a couple of popsicles (unfrozen kind in plastic tubes) - tags say "Stay Cool This Summer" :)

Sent those in today (last day of school!) along with teacher cards I made!

This week may not see much crafting - getting ready for Nashville trip, but I do need to make Father's Day beaded keychain - with DS's help! That has to get done!

Just click on Upload a File next to Post Reply and it should take you to your photos to select the one you want. Not sure if you can share more than one at a time. Let me try. Yes, you can. I just held the CTRL key down as I selected the two photos below. I clicked on Thumbnail for the star and Full Image for the card. Capiz Star (2).JPG Card 2017 Stamped.jpg

Here are two of our poured art projects. DD turned out to look like it had a moon in it. The small one is poured from leftover paint from our projects. VH poured.jpgpoured leftovers.jpg

Here is a project I finished yesterday. DD had made the clay figure of her hairstylist and gave it to her for Christmas. Her stylist was afraid to hang it on her tree incase it broke so I put it in a shadowbox for her. I took a photo of her station and then had some mirrors put on three sides of the shadowbox to add some light to the box.steph box.jpgsteph braid.jpg

Am finishing off the crochet rug. It is only small but I want to get 2 or 3 done and give them to a shelter or nursing home for use through the Winter. Some of the wool I am using I have had for many years and it is time for it to go.
