….must be out Christmas shopping
It’s bitterly cold today. A great day to read emails and stay indoors. I guess not everyone else feels the same because it’s really quiet on the blogging home front. With over 500 followers my site is unusually quiet.
I know that I, sometimes spend too much time on the computer but I love learning about new things and getting new ideas for my own art or projects for my art classes at school. This morning I learned about a woman in the Netherlands that recycles old t-shirts and makes rugs using only her fingers (after she’s torn and cut the old shirts apart using scissors).
I then watched a 20 minute video tutorial on making an art collage called Industrial Heart. I was mesmerized. If you’re a budding artist or want to try a new technique check this out.
Well I guess I should do something more constructive today. I need to buy a few more things for Christmas but my husband is balking at going to the mall. I may end up fighting the crowds on my own. Wish me luck.
Cheers!
Luck and cheers to you!

Everyone I know seems to be down with colds and coughs and struggling with all that needs done. Packing too, but could just curl up and sleep. Hope your shopping trip went well.

I ended up going by myself but didn’t really have much success. Luckily I’ve been healthy so far this winter.

I have a friend that do those rugs too, very simple to make … and I enjoyed the canvas video. Have done all my shopping, but I shop during the whole year, when I see something … Good Luck and I’m sure you will be home safely.
