Instead of TV they are weaving

Do you remember this weaving loom when you were a kid?  I sure do!

In today's culture with the internet, facebook, smartphones, video games, TV, Ipad's, Ipod's and every other electronically gadget screaming for our kids attention.  It was refreshing to see this.  

They were not thrilled at first. 

BORING

  However, after  they got going they were laughing and having a blast. 

Well worth the $2.00

Giving Myself Permission

My passion is sewing. Oh, how I love sewing!

Unfortunately, life gets in the way sometimes and projects get put on the back burner.

Case in point: I started creating some funky aprons last summer. I enjoyed the process, no pattern, no guidelines, no RULES. Simple create!

Today I am giving myself permission to -- CREATE

What are you ding today?

Art Journal

Art Journal

The makings of an art journal. I gathered some goodies and began to create.


It's a work in progress. Sorta like me.








Have any of you created your own Art Journal? If so, I would love to see them.
