Day 20 #30DOC Painted Mailbox
Today, for Day 20, Caitlin and I painted our mailbox. Last year, we painted it in the American Flag motif. The pole still needs to be spray painted black. Caitlin did the one side with the dog and numbers, while I did the flowers on the other side. It started good, not too hot, but then we had to wait for the black paint to dry. As we were painting on the other items it started to thunder in the distance. I had checked the radar for rain, before hand, and there was none. Anyway we had to hurry, and it was hot too, the mailbox and the air. So the flowers and vines didn't come out exactly as I wanted, but it is still pretty. Also, I forgot I do not like to paint on metal, lol. Especially textured metal, I just don't like the way the paint goes on. We used acrylic paint. Total time of project was like one hour and 15 min. I did get to let it dry and sealed before the thunderstorm actually hit and the mailbox is just fine.

Creativity Catch Up #30DOC
Day 11-18 each day I worked a little bit more on my Princess cocoon. It is almost all done and then I need to do the hat.
Day 12 was painting fun for just me and I painted this lovely purse at the top.
Day 13 was photography fun with butterflies and flowers. There are actually more pics for both days.
Day 14 was all smiles with photography fun.
Day 15 http://melissashomeschool.blogspot.com/2013/06/did-you-know-nature-facts.html
Day 16 http://melissashomeschool.blogspot.com/2013/06/did-you-know.html
Day 17 is fun with pictures and the dog. This is Biscuit in various fashionista wear. Isn't she cute?
Day 18 is painting fun with the whole family. Mom painted on sunglasses and one wallet, Caitlin painted the Petshop dogs and the dog wallet, my sister painted the NC Tar Heels Wallet, and I painted the Love letters which will go above my Family Tree I painted on the wall on one of the other days.
Now that my sister will be returning to NC, I can resume a more normal schedule of creativity. I still want to paint my mailbox, and a few other things planned, plus others I want to try. Friday we are going seashell hunting, I hope, if it does not rain. So there might be lots of photos that day as well.
