Paint Party

Last night I went to one of the ever most popular paint parties with my mom's church's women's group. (Boy, that's a lot of possessive nouns.) It was actually quiet fun and I really think I want to buy a few canvases and paint them for the house. Several years ago I painted a few fun girly canvases for a friends little girls. Anyways. Back to the party. We painted crosses.
The background.
Drawing and painting the cross. lots of people used a stencil they had, but I didn't like the shape of it.

I honestly can't wait to start painting more. I loved art classes that I took in Jr. High and was actually really good. For some reason once we moved to Lake Hamilton I only danced. I stopped running track and taking art.

You can type in anything dealing with houses and get thousands and thousands of pictures to browse through. I look at EVERYTHING and pin the things I like on Pinterest. This makes it so easy to go back and review favorites. I have several boards dedicated to various rooms and the outside of the house. My focus these days is on the exterior. Hopefully in the next two weeks I will have a house pad and be ready to frame the house. I  know that I want a metal roof (not sure what color), cedar columns, stone, and cedar siding/shingles. not sure about color combination, how much siding or how much stone, and the front porch and walkway (the front yard will be pretty steep). I'm on Spring Break this week so I plan on visiting some lumber yards so I get a closer look at certain materia...
