Wedding keepsake

Wedding season is now upon us!


Below with the happy couple is the canvas keepsake I made especially for them!
This is 8" x 10" stretched canvas. I basecoated it black and the next little layer was metallic initials -
M and K.
On top of that I used gray acrylic paint and lettered their names and wedding date.
I sprayed varnish to protect it and there is a hanger on the back.
Congratulations to this nice young couple!

A storage bin becomes a toy box

We've had some more snow days so it was the perfect time to get crafting!




I bought a storage bin at my local Home Hardware store.


I cut out letters and numbers from cardstock with my Cricut and some ladybugs (cut from wrapping paper) and I decoupaged them on using Americana Decoupage Medium.

It is now a toy box.

Polar Vortex!

We're into February 
and the ground hog seems optimistic about the weather 
so bring on spring any time now! 
 (Ok, wishful thinking!)

I've actually been accomplishing a lot of projects lately, here is my newest one for my friend's new grandson.  It's wrapped canvas, I used acrylic paints, spray varnish and used jute rope for hanging.

It seems like it is baby season!

End of January 2019.....

We sure have had some terribly cold days this week! 
Coupled with snow, it makes for a frigid day outdoors....

So I stayed inside and did more knitting!

This is a baby blanket, knit with double strands of yarn.  
The color is good for a boy or a girl and is nice and soft.
