Hey Blog world.
How is every one doing?
Me well I have had a failure craft day. It was just one of those days where nothing worked.
I started out doing one craft but after three attempts I gave up. Also trying to paint our bedroom. Between moving furniture and taping the room I didn't have a lot of time to do anything productive. I did how ever have a lovely time on our vacation. Thanks for asking! :) We went to St Augustine and brushed up on some history. I also got some inspiration for my books. If you didn't know I like to write. Ironically being the biggest wimp when it comes to all things horror I write about ghosts. Its a mixture of romance and paranormal. So going to a haunted city was just what the doctor ordered. Of course now I need to sit my butt down and get writing. But back to tonight's projects. Yes projects as in plural because I started one. I was going to redo my wind-chimes
First, I hate wind chimes. I can not stand the clangy noise they make. I do not find it soothing. To me it sounds like nails on a chalk board. But I like wooden ones. The thunking is a lot better to me instead of the clanging.
Well my wind chime started to fall apart so I wanted to try to fix it.
Try.
Fail.
Before.
After.
Basically what happened...Well I have no patience.
Needed about eight hands to do this project. I wanted to do pretty beads and repaint some of the wood.
But I couldn't get it to work. I honestly could tell you all sorts of things I had tried to do but I am so annoyed with this project I want to forget it ever happened.
So I have been working on something else so I didn't completely fail you.
A few years ago I turned a little Christmas village into a Halloween village. So since then I have received lots of houses to redo. Some of them I can use for my Halloween village others are to big. But again back to the stories I write (ghosts remember?) I usually get my inspiration from creepy houses. Well I came across these two houses that reminded me of some of the houses that became my inspiration.
Before. Gave it a bath. Kicked out all local spider residents. Get ready to paint.
Just used acrylic paints.
Not my best work but I was rushed.
When Halloween comes around remind me to show you my Halloween village. It is awesome!
Anyways. So these projects don't require a break down in price. I don't expect people to try and attempt these projects. I just wanted to share a failure and a some what success. :D
Hope you enjoyed tonight's blog. I will see you next week.
