“Owlie” – (because I can’t think of anything more original right now π) who holds the distinguished honor of being the flag-bearer for my new-found hobby [Diamond Painting] – is finished!
Here he is framed & displayed in our little grooming room:
I covered the canvass with a sheet of plastic on the suggestion of the cleaning lady. She was worried that dust might settle between the beads & wiping them would cause the beads to come lose – smart observation!
(Oh and I’m really sorry about the poor quality of these photos. It’s been cloudy/rainy lately so I’m using indoor lighting only π).
And because I am just “high-strung” like that, here’s my next project:
Drill pens up in 5! π€©
Owlie is wonderful! Youβre very creative. π

Is there a link to motherhood and creative pursuits? When I was rearing my four, i did a lot of crewel embroidery, needlepoint, decoupage, restyling and repainting of old furniture (not antiques), and art classes. Love the beauties you’ve shown on the blog.

That would be wonderful β€οΈ Right now the little one puts everything in her mouth, everything! π¬ One time I put her down and was distracted by the TV for a bit, and I didn’t know she could already crawl .. I felt something moist & warm on my toes and when I looked down it was her nibbling on them π€£
