Thursday Trios – Collections from Home

for this week’s trios I decided to find some of my favourite collections in my art studio

From bottles, rocks, and hand decorated vases to some of my favourite little stuffies.

If you have any trios to share please copy my link and paste it into your post. When I get your pingback I’ll be sure to check it out and leave a comment. Have fun!

I’m a Fan of….My Husband’s Art and Studio

I love the joy and satisfaction my husband gets from painting, especially in the summertime when he can paint in the backyard studio. He can get as messy as he likes and he listens to his favourite tunes. Sometimes he even gets up and starts dancing. This past week he sold one of his paintings. I wired it for him and we hung it up to get it off the floor so it wouldn’t get damaged before it is picked up.

My Second Jig Saw Puzzle in 2024

was gifted this puzzle last year by my friend, Maria who also gifted me the first puzzle that I completed last week

The foil pieces were a bit of a challenge, especially at night when the light from above would leave a glare. This one took me just over two days to complete.

Cee’s Which Way Challenge With Snow

Last night we had our first significant snowfall this winter. My husband was out early shovelling the snow on our side and over at the neighbours on the opposite side of the street.

Day Three

How frustrating to discover that one piece is missing. I searched under all the chairs, tables, wall units, carpet and the couch. No luck but my house is cleaner and I discovered my tablet that I hadn’t realized was missing.
