It was definitely a ‘pain’ cry which drew me to the surface from deep sleep. Poor Miss L, her teeth had been bothering her for the last week and still not broken through. I got up, quiet as possible, trying not to disturb the others in the house. This week in particular I was trying [...]
These necklaces are not yet listed. I made these up the other night in an attempt to use some of the beads that I have stored away (as mentioned here). Christie suggested I group them together and sell them in packs of like colours so I’ve taken her suggestion one step further and grouped them [...]

That’s the theme this week for PF, Extreme Closeup. This is a macro (ish) shot of some sort of bug or egg on a tree in our front yard. I thought it was interesting. This was taken with my digital video camera not my newer nicer digital so the quality isn’t quite as good:

Michael has often mentioned his use of resources from the Matthias Media range and until yesterday I hadn’t had a close look at their catalogue. Turns out that they carry a lot of really sensible books, studies and DVDs that I can see being of great use. Flipping through their latest catalogue I could see [...]

A pastel from a few years ago
For a long time now I’ve wanted to get out my paints. I used to paint all the time, I even have a BA Arts (painting) and every supply under the sun. I have piles of paint (oil, acrylic, watercolour, goache, pastel etc etc), plenty of canvases (some new, [...]

Mum of two, wife to Michael, follower of Jesus, Australian, lover of all things creative and artistic. I try to do fun things with my girls, I often stress too much, over-react or worry but I'm very grateful for the patience, love and forgiveness of God and those around me.
This blog is just my way of connecting with other people around the world. Its not my intention to show off in any way just to share a bit about myself. Besides all of that, blogging keeps me a bit more sane than usual!
