Video #2: Watercolor Pencils

I tried to color in the image as fast as I could so that the video didn't run too long.  I managed to do it in under 10 min.  I really wanted you to see me color it in all the way.

Thanks for watching

My $10 organizational item from the hardware store

I found this the other week for $10. It's awesome. It's got 18 compartments. I store my buttons and my smaller prima flowers. I also have some plastic embellishments and some of the HG pins. It can be store closed to take to crops or you can open it up when at home. So convenient.
