Hazel changed her mind and wants to move her stuff later (weekend?) so I have my day free. Puttering back and forth with crochet, piano and playing with the new paints that came in the mail this morning.

New here! Beautiful colors in your crochet! If I could have my entire home in these colors, I’d be a happy camper. I think I am going to be very happy here reading your journal!

The colors of the granny squares are similar to the colors you used in the painting. They are vibrant colors.

Hope you got a little nap in, I did.

Those are beautiful colours. They make me think of peacocks.

Yes. I thought at first that Peacock was the color of the yarn till I checked and saw it was dragonfly.

what would you need to make a shawl?
its very pretty wonder what their peacock would look like.
I love blendedcolors

think that's why I've seen the crystals added
to gel medium,with a touch of water to make a paint?
yup there's flow medium in the pamphlet
good to know I need to fix the colors.
Mine came today too.
it was such a little box for the price
I'm looking for a place to tell amazon
the"light package" is a poor excuse to put
a item fragile in cold and many other packages unprotected.
might have to tell brusho they need to put fragile item on the packaging?
the glue on the box(only protection) popped in the cold.

This yarn is Red Heart Unforgettable. They have some pretty colors.

I was thinking too that putting the crystals in acrylic medium would solve that problem. But then you might miss out on getting them to bloom. Need to experiment with very thinned out acrylic medium to wet the paper first and see if that would work to keep the wonderful blooms in place so you could paint over it if you wanted to.
