Mother’s Day Gift Idea

This is a re-post from last year…..

Mothers, and especially Grandmothers, can never have too many pictures of their (grand)children.   This inexpensive and easy idea would be a perfect gift for any mother in your life.

I adore silhouettes.  This beautiful form of art has been around for years and years.  Here are silhouettes of my twin brother and I done for my mother (throat clear) just a few years ago.

May Day

 

Hi Everyone!

Have you ever heard of “May Day”?  May 1st used to be a big deal many, many years ago and has a lot of history associated with it.  It also used to be a major holiday for many countries and was quite a political event every year.  Farmers were also known to celebrate May 1st as a time that most of their seeding was finished and to celebrate the blessing of having fertile ground.  Now, it’s basically a celebration of Spring and showing your love for family and friends.  I’ve been a fan of this day since I was very young.
