Alternative Painting Resources
Learning to paint on a budget? Try these resources.
1. Check out EBAY.com for used painting books and DVD’s.
I find many DVD’s and painting books on EBAY at good prices.
2. Check your local library for painting instruction materials.
Some local library take suggestions for acquisitions. If the selection of painting instructional materials is poor or outdated, ask for more current materials.
3. Check your local used book store or flea market for instruction books and supplies.
Flea markets many times have artists and crafters who are selling their wares. Many time these artists are also selling surplus supplies, materials and resources.
4. Try a building salvage store for painting surfaces.
Old cast off windows or doors make great large painting surfaces.
5. Try a government surplus store for surfaces.
I found cheap cast off cafeteria dishes at the local university surplus store. The dishes made great glass surfaces.
6. Record your favorite painting show for later review.
If you get painting instruction television shows in you area, record the show for reviewing later. You may learn something new each time you watch.
7. Find a painting club or art guild in your area.
You can learn a lot from other painters. Plus, you may make some great new friends. Some guilds or clubs have a lending library for instruction materials.
8. Recycle, reuse and be creative.
Look at everything before you throw it away to see the creative potential.

Michigan Mixer

mm MICHIGAN MIXER 2011 PROJECTS[1]mm Invitation Letter to Presidents[1]
Click on the links above to see the attachements.
I received this notice from the Heart of Michigan, SDP Chapter.
Attached is the flyer and class information for the 2011 Michigan Mixer that will be held on March 26 at the Holt United Methodist Church and hosted by HOMDA.
Due to unforeseen circumstances we have had to pull the date up from April to March 26. Consequently, the cutoff date for signing up for a class is March 6. I realize this does not give you much time to decide whether you will attend. We plan to have a some wonderful classes taught by some very talented teachers.
Please look over the flyer and pass it on to any friends you think would be interested in attending. I’m sure you will have a wonderful time if you choose to attend.
Any questions, please give me a call or send me a return email.
Respectfully,
Chris Keppel

Mommy Message T
I made my 9- year- old daughter a T with a message only a Mother could love!
This T was made with stenciled letters and Plaid Fabric paints. I made my own stencils by cutting the letters out of heavy card stock using my Cricut. I used gold metalic paint for the letters. I outlined the letters after I stenciled the letters on the t shirt. I added gold glitter demensional paint to the center of each letter. I freehanded the accents.
The words “my Mom bought me this T” were also from a stencil I made on my Cricut. Let the stencils dry completely between each use. I think she will wear the shirt just to see her classmates reaction.
My next shirt for my daughter will read “Delicious Broccoli”.

What Happened to Crafting on TV?
January 14, 2011 by Administrator
HGTV and DIY used to show crafting shows, where did they go? I was extremely excited when my cable company started showing HGTV and DIY. I watched Carol Duvall, Design on a Dime, From Junky to Funky and any other crafting show. Now I can only find crafting show on the PBS channel Create!. Bring back crativity and crafting to TV. In this age of recycling and economically imposed frugality we need to learn new craft technigues to make best use of raw materials and to recycle items.
