Hello again! Today I’m sharing how we made and canned salsa. You may remember how, about a month ago, I posted a tour of our family vegetable garden. It’s still coming along nicely. We’ve been able to harvest several varieties of vegetables already. We had to do something with those vegetables, however, so we decided to make salsa! I’ll share…
Hello again! Today we’ll be taking a peak into one of the recently completed projects in my sketchbook. A week or so ago, I found a course on Craftsy that looked interesting. It was called Seven Days of Drawing, and it involved watching a short video everyday (well, in theory. Due to some busy days, I didn’t actually finish the…
…they have a tale to tell. 🙂 Today I have an interesting little project to share with you: how I hand lettered and painted a sign! This sign has been sitting above my grandma’s sink for as long as I can remember. One of my older sisters, Caroline, has been saying that she would like something very similar to it….
Hello again! Today I’m going to do something a little different: an overview of my art supplies! Let’s get started! This wooden box is where most of my art supplies are kept. It’s a good size, and I don’t have to worry about getting it dirty with the various messy items I use. Pictured above are most of the contents…
Hello again! Today I’m sharing another sewing project: how to make a skirt out of a sheet! I actually made the skirt, pictured above, a few years ago. It was a failed attempt to make a maxi skirt, since I didn’t notice when I originally cut it out, that there was a big hole in the back. Just a little…
Ciao! Today I’ll be sharing about one of my current projects, a denim skirt. Now, for a little backstory: I’ve been wanting to make a new denim skirt for a while now, but hadn’t purchased any fabric for it yet. We usually buy fabric at Joann’s, but since the store is a little bit of a drive for us we…
Hello again! Today we’ll be heading outside to take a look at the garden. A little more than a month ago, I referenced the family garden in a post about my flower garden, saying that maybe I would post about it later. Well, today is the day! Here’s how it’ll work: I decided that I’m just going to show pictures…
Hello again! Today I have another skirt project to share with you. Here we have the skirt I altered. (Unfortunately, I forgot to take a “before” picture until I had already cut the skirt and started to gather the top. You can still see what the skirt previously looked like, I hope, in the one I did take.) I’ve done…
Hello! It’s Simply Saturday. Let’s get started! Recently, I’ve been thinking that I should use my artistic talents (such as they are) for more than a drawing or painting that sits in my closet and never sees the light of day. My latest idea in that area is, why not seriously pursue the possibility of making my own cards? Plus,…
Hello! Today I’ll be sharing what I’ve recently been working on in the area of artistic pursuits. The project: What is that, you ask? This, very detailed, “paint-by-number”. (I don’t really like calling it that, since it sounds like I’m working on a little kid’s coloring sheet…but it is technically a “paint-by-number”) Anyway, I’ve worked on this painting for many…
