Aprons, Aprons, Aprons

Yesterday was a fun class at Mystic Paper. I will blog more about that later as this will be an intensive photo blog. Colleen asked me to take pics of all the aprons for the Altered Apron Challenge Mystic Paper has. So here you go Colleen. I am sorry I don't know all the names that go with the aprons. They are strung across the Mystic Paper store and are really amazing works of art.
This first one I know:) as I was at Mystic the Day Carlene brought in her apron

Today: Chaos, Cooking, Cleaning and Creating

Image
What a day. I think I put the "Labor" into Labor Day. After yesterday, where I basically sat all day I needed to get going. And get going I did. From laundry to cleaning to grocery shopping to creating I have had a busy day. I have decided that what I eat sucks. I rarely cook a good meal and then at bedtime I am back to starving. So in my great wisdom I decided I needed to get with it and start fixing better meals for myself. Cooking for 1 is not the most inspiring thing. I am so used to cooking for larger groups and I tend to make too much. any how armed with a list for the grocery store and determination I headed out.

Tag Dress Form= a great day

Image
Yesterday Kim and I took an Altered Dress Form with tags class at Mystic Paper with Lisa Super . This was a fun self paced class. I managed to get a few tags completed and Kim went a different direction and painted her dress form with gesso and gessoed her tags. The tags she completed were beautiful so I am anxious to see hers completed too. All of us had unique tags even though we were working with the same supplies. Lisa had tons of paper, flowers, stamps and on and on for us to complete the projects. Of course I did a wee bit of shopping and was able to pick up Prima's new stitched papers and 3 of their acrylic stamps as well as a wonderful new stand to hang "things" on. Then I scored some of Kim's new wood shapes. Loving her new line! So here you go tons of pics The new Prima stitched papers and a couple of collage sheets for future projects My fabulous new stand with my new Prima stamps And the new wood shapes by Kim. And congrats Kim on the overwhelming success
