I did some painting for twinchies and used the wrong paint on the wrong base, and it came out a sticky mess so I threw it all out and started over. Now I'm feeling back on track! I love how these projects get us to learn through experimentation... except in the moment when I'm ready to scream!

Lyte · 01-07-2018, 10:34 PM

Well... lol

I'm pretty committed to the direction I've chosen. The "background" is already set and I've got pieces prepared for the foreground. It's the midground... if there is such a word that got hosed by Etsy... but only temporarily. I hope!

It was finally warm enough to send out my twinchies. I bundled up for my walk to the post office. As soon as I walked out the door it started snowing!! But I persevered. The package should arrive Thursday.

Lyte · 01-12-2018, 04:03 PM

Hey!! I got my first twinchies today and they are adorable!! I love mine! Thank you CCB!!

You're welcome!!! Glad they arrived safely.

nycfem · 01-15-2018, 01:07 AM

My twinchies are done. I had lots of fun doing them. Now the big quest is mailing them.

FireSignFemme · 01-19-2018, 01:44 AM

Wow, this has been crazy but lots of fun. It's weird because this is the simplest project ever, with plenty of lead time, but it's taking me so long. Some of it is mail order drama but the main difficulty has been size. I can't find my good glasses, remember where I put them, and my hands are all trembling from a recent med change. I feel like a kindergartner trying to color within the lines.

Lyte · 01-20-2018, 08:37 AM

Today is assembly day! I have all my crafty bits ... and it's the weekend... so it's time to put everything together!

Gemme · 01-20-2018, 08:40 AM

Assembly day is a lot different with two curious kittens in the house.

clay · 01-20-2018, 10:08 AM

I will be getting my crafting on in next couple days....'

I made a major long ass move this past week, so am just getting settled in again. I will not fail to make deadline though.

Getting my dinette set in Tuesday, so will then have a table to work off of...

.

I know everyone's projects will be so cool and fun to receive and look at...

Lyte · 01-20-2018, 10:33 AM

Funny! I dont have it quite so bad. I've got three feline teenagers! I usually wait till they decide it's nap time. They get tired of watching the birds outside and everyone goes to their preferred napping spot. At that time I might get some shite done!

Yeah that must be bad. I've been having trouble with just one teenager. But he is sooooooo curious about whatever I'm doing. He actually jumped directly onto a painting I was working on yesterday and got blue footprints everywhere and it was hard to correct.

I don't envy you!

Good luck all artistes assembling this weekend.

FireSignFemme · 01-23-2018, 08:03 AM

Done, mine will be in the mail in time to beat the deadline. What a relief.

I will be screeching in at the last minute, as usual, but this time I'm thinking things through more and the pieces show it. So far, anyway.

*crossing my fingers that I don't do something stupid to mess it all up

I'm having fun with this project!

FireSignFemme · 01-26-2018, 07:01 PM
