Throwback Thursday

I've never posted anything throwback on Thursdays.... not even on Facebook, but I was thinking I'd like to post on this blog on a regular basis and not just once every few months.  So I thunk and I thunk.... knowing nothing, not having any creative, new ideas... I could do a Throwback Thursday of art/craft I've done in the past.  What to post for this first in a series??  I looked around my mess studio (really I was taking a shower and going through the files of stuff in my head) and decided upon this piece. 











 I was still living at home so this is perhaps 40 years old or more.  I wrapped string around a Pringles can and probably used poster paint for the sunflower.  Can you see the face in the center of the flower?

 I've kept this silly thing for all this time and have used it to house incense sticks most recently (when the boys were still home)

Don't even know what's in it now......leftover incense I wouldn't let the boys use.   ha

I don't even use incense anymore.... takes up too much of the air I breathe.  :-)


Ciao!

Current project - spiral crocheted doilies

I made the larger one years ago and have at least one as an unfinished project. Had no desire to make again until this week.  So we shall see

digital photos for real.

Ordered photos from Walmart tonight.  Looked through some landscape photos I took and some family photos.  Some old, some new.  It will be interesting to see what they look like in my hands on real photo paper instead of sitting in front of my computer zooming in for details, etc.

I've been taking photos of Dale's wood burning and have made an album of his art.  This is what started me ordering photos tonight, trying to keep up with his plaques.  That and my kindergartener great-niece's beauty walk... Turns out my great-niece and my great-great-niece are both kindergarteners.  I know because I have photos (smile)
