The city in the sky

Well i did this for the first time with my 2nd grader. We talked about the intermediate colors. They thought it was cool how you could do that with the paint. But when it came time for them to do it that was whole another story. Instead of kids just pulling the paint in on direction they were pulling and pushing. So I must try this again with an older class. But some of them did a great job designing there city/castle in the sky.

The hated sweater.

Ok I have this sweater my wife really hates. I have had this sweater for many years. So I thought it was about time to get ride of it. But being the me and I can turn just about nothing into something. I figure I would start working on a Xmas gift for my wife. So I know she never looks at my blog so i would share this with all of you. The hated sweater has now became a brand new purse for her. I cut up the sweater and got out the sewing machine and made this wonderful purse she is going to love/hate.
