The First Flower of theYear!

Hurray! One of my flowers actually bloomed! I am going through a bad garden year. Two out of the five types of flowers that I am trying to grow this year, are not going to bloom till next year! I didn't read that part on the seed packet till it was too late! Then two out of the three (excluding the ones that didn't bloom) are not going to grow at all because the rabbits ate them! "sigh"  But, I still have one flower that is doing very well.  They are about to bloom any day now!! It is the forget-me-nots!!  They are so easy to forget!     

Here is the first flower!

And the forget-me-nots!

 And I had some fun with the Cinnamon bread!

We have gotten so many cherries!! We had to put a net over our cherry tree because last year all of the birds ate them!!

Winged Owls

The owls have come back!!! Only this time they came with wings!!   And I started to hand sew all of the eyes and beaks on instead of gluing them.  These are much better quality than my other ones!!  Come and visit them on my Etsy shop!!

A Painting in Three Minutes!!

Here is a video I made of me painting a flower.  I really don't know how I thought of something like this, but you know.......that's just me!! =]

I used Master's Touch Acrylic paint. And a canvas with a wooden frame.

And here is the finished project.
