Social Media Happenings

July 19

How was your weekend? Creative?

Working at my Retail job on Saturday and then I helped out a friend in her Kitchen at an Auction House on Sunday, but managed to find a few moments to enjoy our yard and create just a bit!

The flowers continue to put on their show in our yard, my hubby gets all the credit on this one, beautifully created. He even shared his crop of veggies coming in….good looking cucumbers!

We added to our glass jar with no bottom, Jerry’s snack mix. It’s the little things that bring joy…..having fun surprising each other with what we find and toss in!

Saturday evening we made another favorite dish ~ have been making it for at least 15 years, Rachael Ray’s Chicken Salsa Verde, it may be the first dish that I declared a success and started to enjoy cooking!

And slowly but surely we are working on the Sewing Corner of the Studio. This tiny desk on little caster wheels is coming along. I will be sure to share the paint mix and more once completed! My brand new sewing machine hasn’t been used yet, I have had it since April and am waiting on a new foot petal that is out of stock, I am so anxious….and trying to have patience.

Off to a good start today…..my paint brushes will finally be moving. Everything else can wait Make it a good ‘paint brush in hand’ kinda day…..

Creative Kindness

Did you know that there is a place for you to visit within my website called a ‘blog’? (you’re here)

A blog is simply a way to share all things Creative….Art & Home.

Like opening a favorite magazine, turning page by page.

And guess what? It is free to you, a little creative kindness from my heArt to yours.

Autumn happens to be one of my favorite Seasons to share, you will find gift tag ideas, vignette arranging, market bags to create, place settings to set, comfort food casserole recipes, homemade breads, gooey desserts, and soooooo many photos of fun pumpkins and such!

Get comfy, grab a cup of your favorite coffee and scroll thru the blog post contents…..I am sure you will find something to enjoy!

We have had a couple of questions come about from last evenings Show & Tell thru Artfully Connected with Cindy Harrison (which is still available to view on FaceBook!)

I know it sounds crazy but when I create in Paint & Pencil ~ I create on watercolor board or paper that is attached to wood then painted in acrylic then colored penciled…..how crazy is that!

For the upcoming class on September 2 and 9th, I used watercolor paper on the baby bundt box and watercolor board on the pumpkin plaque.

Here is a link to purchase the watercolor board thru Blick https://www.dickblick.com/…/crescent-watercolor-boards/…

And the pumpkin plaque can be purchased here ~ https://tolepaintingdesigns.com/…/classic-pumpkin…/

The baby bundt box is available here ~ (this is made to order so allow at least 2 weeks) ~ https://classicamyjoanne.com/…/8-x-8-x-4-inch-baby…/

And the watercolor paper thru Blick here ~ https://www.dickblick.com/prod…/canson-xl-watercolor-pads/

and you can read a little bit more about how I adhere the paper, click below ~ https://classicamyjoanne.com/…/watercolor-paper…/

Hope you will join us….let’s be creative together!
