summer camp -- 02

this is the second project i've finished for red velvet summer camp -- tea light lanterns from re-purposed jars!

i used one jar i already had, and got the rest for less than $3 at a local thrift shop. since our outdoor color scheme is going to be yellow & gray {current WIP: yellow chairs with gray stenciled designs}, i used various black, gray & white pearl beads on the handles. i filled the jars with yellow glass beads, white pearls & black sand.

i love how they turned out, and hope to enjoy many outdoor meals by candlelight!

summer camp -- 01

i am a summer camp slacker -- i'm several projects behind schedule for red velvet summer camp.

project 01 was a summer log/art journal.
having seen other blogs about art journals, i was excited to start this!
but then i realized that art journaling is not the easiest of tasks for those with slight OCD, like myself -- it probably lends itself much better to those with free spirits.

but even though this has taken me a long time, i'm trying to loosen my grip on perfection, and have fun creating this journal. i'm already planning to make one for each of the 4 seasons.
