Time for a fun Craft

Sometimes during the holidays there are those days that the weather is really not that great outdoors.
When that time comes, and the holidays are close at hand, it is fun to make these great little angel decorations.

They don't need to be angels, they can be snowmen, or cookie cutter people or critters.

Here is the recipe for CLAY DOUGH you can bake. If you cannot see it clearly, click on it to enlarge the image.

Sometimes if your dough gets too dry, just wet  your own hands a little bit and knead the dough some more to soften it.  I keep it covered while I work.  Using a damp paper towel works well.

These are fun to make and can be hung on a Christmas tree or in a window.

Winston the Wonderhound coming to the interenet

I have figured out that the only way to actually provide Winston's story in a reasonable progression is to put him back on the internet in a way that people can access his story and any chapter more easily.  Blogger is fine , but it is hard to go back and forth if you missed something, so as time permits, his adventures will continue at:

Winston and Roxxanne are off on their newer adventures.  If you want to keep track, just bookmark the link above.

ILLUSTRATION FRIDAY ~ GERMS

I would guess it all depends upon how you look at this.

Germs? Love? Both?

We love our pets as part of our family. They are the most trusting members who give

us unconditional love 24/7. This illustration is dedicated to my friend

Sherry who lost her beloved dog and trusting friend, LUKE this past week.

Old people in old places

This is one I am working on.. the finish will be pen and ink and maybe a bit of digital. Right now I am in the exploration stage, but loving the adventure I am able to create in this musty old library.

I love the idea of old books, old libraries, and older people who still love to read and explore.

Stella is one of those avid readers. She belongs to three separate book clubs and is the host of an online bookblogger club. Her friend Jerome, however is rather a loner. He loves to haunt the rare bookshelves for some timeless novel or historic fiction. Uh oh.... looks like he dropped something.

Never mind.. Stella will catch it. Hmmmmmmm... but what will she find and what will she do next?
