Painted Lady....Or two.

A little bit country....

 

 

Thought I'd go with something a little different this week....a bit of a Summery country feel with faded colours, woven straw hats and wild blooms.

 

 

Hats for all the family....an absolute necessity in our hot dry Summers.....l decorated a few with strands of shells, wooden beads and woven belts.

 

 

l've  also been painting and l'm starting to realise that if l paint too many more canvasses, l'll need more walls to hang them on as l'm running out of wall space FAST. (and my own gallery just isn't an option right now haha!!), so l recently began experimenting with different types of fabrics to paint on so the art can be turned into other things.....These couple of lady heads were painted onto a light cotton fabric and sewn into cushions.

 



 

Casual comfy bed throw with (cute) fur pompoms.

  

 

l went for a walk and filled my basket with flowering wattle.....little did l realise l had hitchhikers on board until it was all too late!!! Earwigs, flying insects and other unidentifiable little blighters....

Well it could've been worse l guess.....like maybe a tree snake...haha!!

The Golden Wattle (acacia pycnantha) is Australia's national flower.....and blooming everywhere at the moment:-))
