stress relief

I have been doing some art~craft projects of late for stress relief.

I find it nice to "play" with various mediums and see what happens.

Never have I thought of myself as a very artsy type, but maybe I just haven't found my niche.

I am learning to just try, play and see what I happen to create.

The painting above was my first attempt with acrylics.

The frame is a project I made for a friend as a Christmas gift for holding/displaying jewelry.

I saw the idea in a magazine a couple years ago & recently made one for myself. My friend adored the idea so I made her one. Also I inspired my best friends daughters to make her own...love that!

keep playing folks
