craft time!

sooo i got home last night and after a nice long discussion with my roommate karina i decided that i was feeling artsy. i had purchased some acrylic paint a few weeks ago with the intention of painting the flowerpot i had purchased to use as my magazine holder (it was a fun and cheap alternative to an actual magazine holder).
it took me a while to get my vision, but started out with the little flowerpot (which i use to hold makeup and stuff) and did this... what do you think it is?



well it's a sunset, kind of... there are some clouds too :) i like it...
then it was on to the big pot (the magazine holder). i had visioned a dove, but didn't know what to do and ended up with this:



it is surrounded by my favorite bible quote, "lead a life worthy of the calling you have received. be completely humbe and gentle; be patient, bearing with one another in love." (ephesians 4:1-2) and the crazy thing.. it fit perfectly around the ring!

lastly, i woke up this morning INSPIRED to decoupage my dozens of concert tickets to a board of some sort to hang up! sooo i went to home depot and bought a piece of wood and this is the beginning of it :



in a few days i will be sure to post a picture of the end product :)
