• May 16th Photo-A-Day P

    Security camera frame

    I was going to use Photo-A-Day P for paint pours. I am having so much fun with these things!! The color combinations are so COOL!!! I get all excited when I get large cells. Cells are almost like bubbles, unique and only pop up with the correct balance of Floetrol, paint, water and silicone. Floetrol (2 parts) Distilled water (1 part)  I’ve also found that rubbing alcohol instead of water makes some great cells! Silicone (2 or 3 drops) Acrylic paint (1 part) I’ve started using ceramic tiles which I can wipe off easily if I don’t like the design. Paint Pour was my first choice, then I remembered I still had a PICTURE frame to review. So, y’all get a double P today. This is first a pretty frame. But y’all know I wouldn’t just give you a review of a plain ole picture frame, right??  This frame has a built-in hidden camera! (OH, where was this frame when Paul the contractor stood on my stove?!?!?!?) This frame has the look of metal lattice work, but it is actually plastic. A strong plastic. The picture opening is 5″ by 8″ and the entire frame is 8″ by 10″. The…

  • May 15th Photo-A-Day O

  • May 14th Photo-A-Day N

    Photo-A-Day N Sandpoint Idaho

    So I am trying my hardest to figure a way to use the Photo-A-Day N with the fact that I finally did it!! I FOUND an ANTLER!! Ya know an aNtler! Bear and I have been going out on a morning hike, which for me is unheard of! I am climbing rocks. I am dinged and dented, scratched and sweaty but having so much FUN!!  There is no noise other than the birds and bear and I traipsing around. Antlers or SHEDS as the locals call ’em. (Aren’t I fancy? Knowin’ all the correct terms and everything!) are hard as heck to spot! Since no one has lived here for so long they are hidden under the brush and pine needles. Now that I’ve found one I am so anxious to find more. I did also find several golf balls. Again, not an N. Of course, not an N but I did capture a cute little fawn with my trail cam. So, it was either a post with aNtlers or post with NADDA. However, I have a really great T coming up. But, for today that is all! WAIT!! WAIT!! WAAAAAAAIT!! Hold the PHONE!! We could pretend this fallen tree…

  • May 13th Photo-A-Day M

    I had a fairly good idea for today’s letter but then Rosie reminded me Photo-A-Day M for MONEY PIT! Yes, I have a million dollar view. I have a craft room that would make Martha Stewart jealous. (okay, not really, I’m sure that hers is equally as nice as mine. HOWEVER, she probably doesn’t have deer that lick the door! HA! I win again!!) So, Rosie thank you so much for today’s prompt. We started to work yesterday on the decks. The contractor truly is amazed that no one has fallen through and down 2 stories. OHHOLYCRAP!! Oh SO very, very bad. Oh SO BAD. I’m on a loop in my head right now, I can’t think of any other words except really, really bad. The contractor hasn’t started tearing down the upper deck but he said truthfully he would HIGHLY recommend NOT stepping on it. AT ALL. YOU GUYS!!! That’s where I go for moon pictures, scenic pictures. I’m on the decks A LOT. Several times a day. Every. Single. Day. So, my first take away on the decks is THANK YOU GOD that we decided to go ahead and bite the bullet and replace the decks this summer…
