rock painting: a craft eminently suitable for uncertain economic times ;)
caroline was painting rocks today

most of us can find a couple of (free) rocks in the yard or on a walk. most of us have at least a few old tubes of paint. ergo, most of us have the makings of a fun little project -- for free. perfect for down market times, and you're limited only by your imagination, which is (hopefully) abundant, and also free. and these sweet and lovingly crafted things can be recast as gifts - paperweight, anyone? (but no throwing stones, no matter how cranky you get ;)
happy saturday! i'm off to do some work, then cupcakes and ice cream with the entire first grade, and all of this to be topped off by a soccer tournament ... it's lovely to be a mom ;)

i like this space in our house -- it's a room with lots of uses, from entry (our side door opens right into it) through playspace for teddy, our six year old, to hang out space for tv watchers and storage place for soccer bags and cleats and backpacks and gloves and goggles and even games; it's also a space full of repurposed things, from a fixed-up-with-old-quilts sofa, to a vintage breadbox with wheels used to store hot wheels to an assortment of estate sale art, to a set of old lockers stuffed with kids' stuff (sprayed a fresh blue at the auto body shop), to a tree stump (from our yard) turned side table, to an antique, very primitive cupboard piled high with games and decorated with this month's postalpix .... just perfect.
