Simply happiness

My Nan shared this quote with me recently. 
'To find the universal elements enough; to find the air and the water exhilarating; to be refreshed by a morning walk or an evening saunter... to be thrilled by the stars at night; to be elated over a bird's nest or a wildflower in spring--- these are some of the rewards of the simple life' - John Burroughs
A simple life can sometimes be the best. 
Happy weekend everyone!

Crafting and Making Art

God provided us with glorious rain and cold temperatures outside today. He doesn't do anything by halves, especialy today - I think the clouds are ringed dry. Although I think this weather is beautiful, I was thankful to the person who created the heater.

What a super day to be inside crafting and making art.


Let all you do be done in love - Corinthians 16:14

Making Art

Yesterday and today I have been using my time to colour a canvas. I wouldn't classify myself as an artist but can say I'm a little closer now. Time well spent.

For this particular piece of art, all you need to do is pick a favourite quote, paint an undercoat, stick plastic/vinyl letters onto the dry undercoat, paint over everything in a solid colour, let it dry and peel off the letters to reveal your masterpiece.

Everyone should give this a try.
