FUN WITH WATERCOLOUR

 

At our last watercolour class Nick was away so our teacher felt it was an opportunity to do something girlie and frivolous.

We each covered an A3 sheet of paper with abstract flower designs.

This was then folded and cut through in the middle.

Then folded into a little book.

Great fun and very easy to do.

READY FOR SOME SUNSHINE and a new bathroom

The subject in watercolour class last week was "trees".  The sun was shining (briefly) and this palm tree seemed like the right thing to paint.

This week I am back in the UK for some errands.  Mixed weather is expected but I feel as though we have turned the corner and winter is on its way out.

Meanwhile, Nick is tackling a job we've been meaning to do for years.  Refreshing the en-suite bathroom.  It’s tired and dismal but the biggest challenge has been in deciding how far to go with the changes.  A bathroom is a Big Job and can be very expensive so we compromised.  

Nick is doing it while I'm away so that I can’t grumble about the mess and disruption - which is another major challenge!  He’s completed the demolition phase.  Now all he has to do is fit the new items.  Fingers crossed it will be finished by the time I get back!
