Creating Fun Stuff

Jen had a couple of projects happening.  These are wall decorations.


Far Guy helped Jen by dipping the individual pieces of wood in food coloring.  I love the way it turned out...so vibrant!


This is one I helped paint, in this photo you can see how the wood pieces stick out at different levels. 

Jen took both pieces plus a few other creations over to the shop in Grand Forks. 

Fun Stuff! 

Still very cold here.

    1. Pine and regular food coloring that you buy at the grocery store

  3. The food coloring is a technique I've never heard of. It looks fabulous! These are both such interesting and beautiful pieces. Bet they sell fast.

  9. I'm curious, are the pieces glued together or attached to a backing. Very cool pieces indeed!

  11. Is there anything that she can't do? That's a really cool technique, but I love the Bee Kind painting too.
    Blessings and hugs,

  12. I like how you can see the grain in the wood, especially in the darker one.
    Well done, and it's fun that you can help.
