Last week was a good one for crafting. I've challenged myself to do a little bit of crafting everyday. I want to spend about an hour working on something, with the goal of finishing it, or at least getting a good handle on it in that time. It doesn't really matter what I make, as long as it gets the creative juices flowing. I'll try to do a weekly update every Sunday to share what I've done!
My creative week started on Tuesday:
I did a little bit of ''art'', if you want to call it that :) This is a 2 inch ceramic pot that I colored with a silver sharpee. My son got in on the action and colored one of his own. Were going to get some small flower seeds, plant them, and watch them grow.
Wednesday:
I did a little bit of beading. The body is a straight jewelry pin and the wings are wire that are just twisted around the body. I love the beads: the body beads look tye-dyed and the wings are alternating seed beads in bright rainbow colors!
Thursday:
I
quilled a birthday card for my Granny. She turns 80 this month! Wow! I love the effect of quilling. It is simple to do, and you can really create a lot with the little paper shapes.
FRIDAY:
I made some more beaded dragonflies, although I forgot to take pictures before they were sent off to friends! They were made with the same beads as above.
The weekend was (and often will be) devoted to knitting. I always have something on the needles, so it's easy to grab and go for all that weekend business!
