Watercolors


Brendan Fraiser was on Martha a few weeks ago and they made kid craft stuff. Well, I happened to have misplaced Abra's new watercolor set and had this empty one lying around and decided to see how well it worked! It turned out well and wasn't too messy! I am still playing around with color combinations. These are NOT TRUE watercolors, they leave a powdery residue on the paper, but for kids, it works just great!!

Happy Birthday Gracie

Tomorrow is Gracie's birthday party!! I got her present finished up today and I am kinda excited how it turned out!! There are a few things to improve upon next time around, but for not having a pattern of any kind, I think that I did a pretty good job!! Hopefully the little diva will like to cook:)

May Day fun


I remember as a child, every May 1st we would make May Day baskets for our friends and leave them on their front porch. There was only one family that reciprocated this fun tradition, however, it was still fun!!! Usually we would full plastic cups with popcorn and gummy candy and leave it at the front door, ring the doorbell and run away!! It was suppose to be completely anonymous! Abra and I did the popcorn baskets last year, but since most of our friends are in Hillsboro, I decided that sucker flowers would be better! Last night we made the flowers and this morning made out deliveries!! Enjoy my friends!
