Dry brushing is so fun, easy, and effective and a super endorphin rush! Just dip a dry brush in paint, wipe the excess of on the container, then dry it off with a paper towel. Then very lightly brush just the tips and edges of of an object and you’ll begin to see your piece magically transform
Before your eyes! And don’t b concerned about messing it up. You almost have to to totally understand what’s going on, and you can always repaint and start over.
Try it out! Let me know how it goes - I love to see people enjoy this rewarding pastime.

Where does time go?? It seems like winter would never end and now Summer is on its way!
I was sure it was yesterday when I last posted and now I see it’s been half a month! Of course, if you go on vacation and forget your phone…
We went to western WA to visit our son for 10 days and my daughter in AK had a baby and it had surgery in Seattle while we were there, so it was a busy time. Here’s a few pics

Look at the different finishes and hues of blue glass... I find it so fascinating!! It changes with the light and the direction you're viewing it from. I like the way the shapes go together too. Lots of interesting little vignettes in the store right now, thanks to Seija Sundberg and her amazing talent!!
