A week FULL of FUN CREATING!!

Monday started out with paint classes and we painted a cardinal, evergreen sprigs, and pinecones on a wooden desk (available at Hobby Lobby) and we had a blast! Starting to get into that festive mood with all the holiday painting we've done this week!

I'm Home! I had a fabulous time on the Donna Dewberry Painting Cruise!!
We painted, we laughed, we painted, we danced, we ate and painted and ate some more!
It was awesome seeing and meeting so many new painters and now friends!














It was my first cruise and I have to admit I was a bit nervous about it at first. I really wish my family could have come along with me - they would have so enjoyed it! Next time!!

























































































































Group shot at the meet and greet the first night on the boat!































































Me and Donna at the 80's Music Show - it was incredible and I think I knew most of the songs in one note~and of course I shouted them out to Connie and Lori sitting next to me!
We were all dressed up because it was Captain's night at dinner.

We had so much fun dancing but oh my...I haven't moved or used some of those muscles in a LONG time!!! I hurt all over!!

Hope you have a great weekend. I'll share more photos with you soon.

Sherry and her pin creations












Martha
Martha is the mother in law of one of my students (Sherri) and she even stayed a day longer in town to come to clay class. This was her first class and she did such a fabulous job.
Have a safe trip home Martha and we hope to see you at class again next time you are in town.








We created some holiday hurricane (chimneys) with clay last week.
We made Christmas roses, pinecones, holly and berries and they are the perfect decoration for that holiday table this Christmas.
