Texas Under Glass

Please be gentle...

this is my first post at your weekly party!

I may be "tardy to the party"...

but I am here now!

Recently, when my husband was released

from a lengthy hospital stay,

we spent a week at my son and

daughter-in-law's house recuperating!

I wanted to say thanks to them

for being hospitable,

but had no art supplies or craft items.

So what's a girl to do?

A quick trip to the Goodwill store

brightened my day with the $2.99

price tag on this!

Then a quick trip to the Dollar Store

provided me with these supplies.

Hobby Lobby had these on sale

for half price...

along with these half price goodies!

Here is the finished product!

My son is a Texas History teacher

so I created this to go with his

Texas art wall.

I named the creation

"Texas Under Glass"

because I was inspired by

the wildlife in the Texas desert

that we called home for many years.

My son, on the other hand,

calls this nature scene

"Sparrowarium".

I like that.

Thanks for including me in your party!
