First craft in my new room...

I painted mini birdhouses to hang on my wall after I finish painting my living room. I set up a tripod to snap pics as I paint and enjoy my day.

Painting the roof reddish brown

 Painting the walls barn red

 And lastly white trim

 And VOILA! I have a cute barnesque bird house to hang on my wall tree.

After this I pained a simple slanted roof house in bright yellow, green, and blue.

First foray into gumpaste...

Mix it yourself he said... it's cheaper that way he said... I think next time I'll just buy the pre made stuff and be done with it. I must have washed half of it down the drain just to get it off of me. I still have chunks of it between my fingers and apparently on my face. But here's hoping at least the half that's sitting on my table is usable. Good thing I'm only using it to try out my new Cricut machine.

Edit for pics:

 

Not much for the pain it was to get the gumpaste mixed and the machine figured out but now that I know what to do watch out world I have goodies to make!
