Paint Job


"Progress is impossible without change.." - George Bernard Shaw

Last week, I spent a day amongst paint fumes as I gave the bedroom a mini makeover. From purple to white, the room is much more fresh and bright. I think Mr J was a little shocked when he visited that night to find me covered in paint from head to toe. Oops. Note to self - avoid contact between paint and skin as much as possible, it tends to become very clingy.

Enjoying making this home ours.

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.
