painting panels

The weather here has taken a bit of a turn, and the rain has come for a visit... a few perfect days to stay inside and get some craft production done... well, since heading outside would mean get very soggy and wet. Here is a sneak peek of some of my craft production yesterday. I have been busy painting some little wooden panels... these will soon be woodburned with images of little birds and wee forest friends.... will take some pics of that and share soon! You can see some finished panels up in my etsy shop here though, if you are dying of curiosity and can't wait. Hope you are having a happy crafting day!

    It's a little crappy here in the northeast - rain all weekend until Monday. Yep - I think good craft days are in order!

    I guess we have to be thankful for the rain keeping us inside to paint and be creative, just remembering how wonderful the weather was last week :) T.

    It rained sooo hard yesterday! I was ticked because I really needed to go on a walk, but I just couldn't do it. Looks like you made the best of it :)
