Princess Bubbles Creates

LeeAnna  asks: do you like a cornfield maze, tell us about a time you did one and where it was We went to an apple-picking place on the weekend.  It had a cornfield maze that I was excited to try.  It was disappointing to us as it was designed for really little kids.  So basically it was a path to a set of slides.  I am sure it was fun for the little ones.  There was zero challenge for us though.  Still, it was a beautiful day to be outside.  It was lovely to get some fresh apples.  It was enjoyable family time.  Maybe someday I will get to try a real maze. We watched the first episode of High Potential and enjoyed it.  The character has so many great pairs of boots!  I can't wait to see what she wears next.  I hope it stays a smart show.  The premise is good. I wonder if everyone likes to clear out things as much as I do.  When I am in the mood to do I can be ruthless.  I have a bedroom that I have ignored for years.  We are getting ready to put new flooring in it so it needs to b

 I made a start on this mandala.  I love the snowflake centre!  Snowflakes are so pretty.  I love creating them.  This one was built on pipe cleaners.  I hope they don't get too bent out of shape while I work on this.  It probably should have been added last but I need it to build my pattern.   I will try to be careful so it doesn't get too beaten up.                          

 This mandala is wonky and imperfect and I still love it.  Using only blue ink was unusual for me but I find it striking.  I put this one in my Zentangle sketchbook that I started so many years ago.  It is a large sketch book so filling a page takes a LONG time.  Plus, I go through periods of enjoying it and times I completely forget about it.   There are only a few pages left in that sketchbook.  It will be time to start a new one.  I believe I will look for a smaller one to use next time.

  I am still working away at attaching my circles to this piece.  I have added some other stitching as well.  I am very keen to add some beading to this one but that must wait.  Beading needs to be the last step.  I don't need the frustration of my threads getting snagged on the beads.   Progress can feel oh so slow.  Especially when it is because I am distracted by other projects!

  LeeAnna  has asked the gang: what is your favorite fall scent?  would you rather have a pumpkin spice drink or apple cider? Oh, cinnamon is my favourite fall scent and Christmas scent too.  I buy a cinnamon-scented candle every year.  It is the time I burn candles.  Cinnamon makes my home feel cosy and warm. I have never had a pumpkin spice drink!  I imagine it is pretty sweet and I don't like sweet drinks.  Apple cider is okay but again rather sweet.  Honestly, I love a strong cup of black coffee all year long.   I love this photo of bubbles.  I am working on a painting of bubbles from the free sample classes of A Year of Light. I am having so much fun with the painting process.  I like having my own photo to refer to as well.  The painting is being done on paper and will end up in an art journal, not a wall. I like that one step of a renovation has been finished!  The new floor in that bedroom looks good.  It is exciting to have that room be useable again!  The next bedroom nee

 Oh my!  Look at all the dog fur on that black wool! Yikes my sweet boy is shedding up a storm! I have added some beading to this mandala.  It is coming along nicely but it still looks like a record album to me.  It is the right size and the right colour.  I guess I should have thought of that before I started.  Oh well, I am not going back now.
