A week back home

Lets see what I did for the past week. Ah yes, got all the pictures sorted out to print copies for William. I promised him that I would make an album and mail which I need to do this week.

Next I had taken some of the left over wedding craft supplies from Sabrina. Yesterday, I decided I will try my hand on fabric painting. It has been a long long time since I did the last painting. I brought these great German fabric paints with me to Bangalore when I came from Saudi and so now putting them to use after nearly 7 years. Ah you wont believe, they are in tact and just good to use. So I took one of the bags, if you remember what Sabrina gave us at the hotel with goodies in it, drew a flower on one side and painted it - oolaala it looks great and on the other side did free hand painting - something light. Great.

So the plan is now to get some nice christmas pictures and paint on the bags which i can use as christmas gifts with small goodies in it. Thanks Sabrina for the bags and for the idea of stamping which I can also do as I have stamps and pads too. You are great in teaching your mom crafts.

My maid Jyoti also loves to learn and do crafts. So far I have thought her cross stitch and embroidery stitch (only chain). She has done a beautiful project while I was away (it was an assignment I had given her since there would not be much work while we were gone). Now she iwill help me with bags and small christmas projects I have to finish within the next two months.

Today, we are going to do some small shopping for glass and fabric paint liners and some good glue. I will be doing some glass art also. Will post some pictures when done on facebook.

Until then all take care.
