Sixth Year of Projects - Week 8



Well this was a slow week with no real progress to show off.  I spent time letting my eyes heal and didn't really do much crafting at all!  I added three little mitered squares to my sock yarn scrap-ghan and I also added another inch or two to Bubbles.  Next week I hope to have some more progress to show off!!  But on the flip-side I had a follow up appointment for my eyes and the doctor was very happy with my healing.  He said I was healing faster than average! I suspect some of that is because I took it easy for the past week and really rested my eyes!

Now that the school year is back in full swing I also have less time to spend on crafting, but I do plan on making sure I spend some time on crafting each day - that is my relaxing time and gives me a lot of stress relief.

In other news I have picked up my paintbrushes again and have begun mixed media art journaling and Bible art journaling.

P is for Painting


And now for something completely different (from my usual knitting or crochet related blog posts).  P is for Painting!  In the past year or so I have tried painting for fun.  I have no formal training of any sort and have just experimented.  It has been a lot of fun!!  I ran out of watercolour paper and the canvases for acrylics so I have stopped painting for the time being.  I think I need to order or buy some more supplies so that I can use painting as a reward for finishing up this semester!!  I also need to decide what to do with what I have painted.  I listed some on Etsy and sold a few of the greeting cards I painted, but I need to decide what to do with the rest.

Here are some samples:
