Yarn Bowl

Hello there! How are you? I do hope you are well. I have a bit of an ear infection so not brilliant - that'll teach me to use cotton buds! Still I did manage to get lots done yesterday - I had a successful run and spent a couple of hours in school trying to get organised for Monday - I have three 100 minute lessons to teach ...oh well. I suspect I am under prepared but its so very hard to tell until you have taught the kids once! I'll feel better once that first teaching day is over!!!

I've been doing a bit of pottery painting - this one has been on the go for a while but now it is finally done.


Its a yarn bowl - I have used stamps from Clarity and I used a bit of an ombre in the painting!


Here's the bowl further around - and the dobbing around the rim.


Here's the main feature of the yarn bowl - you can put your ball of wool in the bowl and the cat won't chase it! Result!!!! I wish I had done a few dots - but there it is!

Hugs

    Good luck with your first lesson tomorrow, my son started his fist teaching job this week - he has 26 8/9 year old children in his class, I think it went quite well.
