Craft Interrupted (and forgotten)

Among the absurd thing about not getting crafts done, and forgetting about them is when you make plans to have something done, you often forget about it then, too.

So, Miyuki, with sincere apologies, I forgot to pass the tiles & canvas to you this weekend!

This One Goes Out to the One I Love

All failed projects start with great intentions. This is one of them (or rather, two). I wanted to make giant wall hanging, magnetic Scrabble canvases. And in some crazy world, I'm not too far off. The canvases are painted with magnetic paint and then topped with acrylic paint. One got so far as to have an actual grid design on it. I kind of got frustrated because my measurements seemed to be a bit off (that's what happens when you use a classroom yard stick for minute measurements).

And what Scrabble board would be effective without tiles. Unsanded, unmarked, bowl of tiles.


Someday, I'll get around to sanding these each by hand. And then lettering them. And then putting rare earth magnets into them. And finish those canvases off. And then I'll have super sweet gifts for a couple people.
