Been busy crafting

A couple of weeks ago I mentioned that I had gone to the Ceramic Craft Studio in Northdene with my friends, Shelley & Rayna and started painting a plate. Well, I eventually finished it and had it glazed and this is the end result. I am sooooo impressed with myself as I have never seen myself as a painter (even though I copied this). I had fun doing it and I might just surprise myself and do another plate or something else that will be useful.Two weeks ago when we went for another lesson I decided that I wanted to make this welcome plaque to go on the wall next to my front door. This was done using the dry brush method of painting, which I really enjoyed. I finished this on Saturday at our lesson.

I have already reserved a nice big bull frog for my next lesson in December. I won't be going to any lessons during November as Leanne (my daughter) is arriving from Wales next Monday and will be visiting for a month, only going back on 4 December. I can't possibly go crafting when we will have girlie things to do. I am sooo excited to see her and am literally counting the sleeps until she gets here.

Thanks for looking.

Excited painter signing off ....
