What To Do?????

What do you do when you must stay home  due to Covid-19.  When confronted at first in March I worked out in the yard helping my husband repair  and redo the patio, then put in raised garden areas, haul dirt for the garden, plan the garden, start seedlings and on and on...

 BUT finally I had to paint some so I finished a dog portrait for my daughter-in-laws fundraiser in Oklahoma City  . To me these dogs look happy........well I did not stop there I decided to learn to use my Cricut machine that was getting dusty .  Since we decided to only shop curbside I had no Easter cards to send the grandchildren so I made them.  Not my designs but at least I became familiar how the Cricut works. Now you have to know I have 10 grandchildren!   Which lead me to think............

I should really learn to create my own designs and make original cards on  the Cricut machine.....still working on that off and on.......So then the Eureka Springs Art School and their local animal shelter had an online fund raiser which I participated in creating pet portraits and I thought it would be a good time to try that in Polymer Clay so I managed to do three for them

You know once I get  the polymer clay out I just have to do more so I decided  to see what kind of veneers I could create to make earrings and that lead me to writing a pdf tutorial and to  create 2 videos which need some practice in order to get them to  be better but I think there will still be time since we are almost into our third month!  Note I posted one on my home page on my web site 
I will have 75 earrings once they are completed with findings and all.

It just seems like all days run together and feels like I get nothing accomplished at all.....BUT writing this post has made me realize I really have accomplished quite a lot!  Looking forward to the future most especially to hugging my grandchildren once again.  Stay safe everyone.
