This was our Saturday evening project, while the lads watched a boxing match.
Coo kept her "Jubilee horn"--as she calls it-- nearby. I'm still not sure why. It's quite likely that she thought all the fuss and fury she heard coming from the laptop in the lounge was some sort of Jubilee-related celebration. How was she to comprehend the sporting importance of an event during which two over-grown men consistently attempt to hit each other in the face?
We enjoyed our creativity in the relative peace and quiet.
And this is how it turned out:
I love the delicate, dip-dyed effect, especially in the mid-morning light!
These IKEA rice paper shades are perfect for watercolour paints. Also, they're inexpensive [£2.25/$3.50], handmade, and when you've pulled out the wire circles at the top and base, can be completely disposed of by recycling or throwing onto the bonfire!
