Brown Trout
A while ago my dad had asked me to do a painting of a brown trout but I never got around to it. So when I was racking my brain thinking of a good christmas gift I thought this would be perfect! So I bought a wood slab from Hobby Lobby and used acrylic paint.
Christmas Ornaments
So Im on a roll with making instead of buying christmas presents so I decided to paint ornaments too! All I did was buy plain glass ornaments from Hobby Lobby and I just used regular acrylic paint. Afterward I sprayed a clear protective spray on top to prevent them from chipping. I also bought some gold ribbon and tied some to the top of the ornaments to hang them from the tree.
Peacock Wine Glasses
Sorry for the crappy picture (my camera broke so I have to use my phone), these are a little something I whipped up for my mother in law for christmas. I just bought some wine glasses from the dollar store and I bought squeeze paint and made this peacock design.

LOOMING!
I recently discovered the art of "looming"! I cant believe I never knew about this. Ive always wanted to learn how to knit but figured it would be just way too hard until about a month ago my sister in law taught me how to use a loom to knit and it was SO EASY! So I immediately was hooked and knitted this purple infinity scarf which I thought went perfect with a jean jacket.
So the scarf in the picture below was made because I had some yarn left from the first one I knitted and decided to use the rest to make my mom a neck warmer.

Crafts!
So like tons of other people Im obsessed with pinterest and got inspired to start being more crafty. The candle holder was super easy! I just put rubber bands around it and sprayed frosted spray paint and voila! I found this wooden key holder at Goodwill, painted it gold, and turned it into a necklace holder!
Golden Tree
I think my new favorite thing is gold spray paint! First I used it on a necklace holder I made, then on a frame, and now on my newest painting. :)
