Mom's friend, Nancy, invited us to come to Glide for a weekend of crafting - we had so much fun! She has this great house!
With Wild Turkeys
And sunshine :)
We arrived to a table full of goodies and gifts. Such sweet ladies - SO generous!!
Our first project was hosted by Pippa - we made a beaded broach
(SIDENOTE: Pippa visited from the UK! She was so much fun and I loved her accent! :] )

| Once your resist dried, you painted over it, then you peel it off. Pretty cool! |

| My dancing fiesta journal page - not finished - I added in song lyrics: "You make beautiful things, You make beautiful things out of dust. You make beautiful things, You make beautiful things out of US." |
Barbara hosted out next project. We made a "Book in a Box." Barbara is a teacher and shared LOTS of ideas and materials with me for my 6th graders.
