Surf Board contest.

Few weeks back our local library held a 'Decorate The Surf Board' contest. To keep my 8 yr old busy I told her to participate. She started with lot of enthusiasm, but slowly lost interest. In order to motivate her I promised her, that if she completes and submits her artwork on time, I will mention it in my blog.

Slowly but surely after a week of drawing she completed and submitted her artwork just before the closing time. I have to admit...her hard work paid off. She was one of the winners of the contest. Congrats T.....I am so proud of you.

Taking a break

For my next project, I will take a break for a week. Instead of starting right away, I thought it will be better to start on March 1st.

During this break I am planning to clean out and organize my basement.....especially my work area. My kids take out all my stuff from the arts & crafts cabinets and don't bother to put it back...I can't find the things I need when I need it.....I am sure most of you moms must be suffering from this too and can understand my plight.

For the next project....I have an idea in my head. Frankly speaking this project really scares me, as I have never done it before...never handled anything remotely familiar. It will be challenging, therefore I have planned to research it well.

Along with research online, I have to make a trip to the local library and see if I can get my hands on some crafting books. I am also planning to go to Michael's today.... I have to checkout and see if they have the necessary supplies. They are the biggest arts & crafts store....I am sure they will have it.

Hopefully all of you join me on March 1st for the big reveal. Take care.
