String, Tulips and Texture Tuesday

Yesterday I was showing you my new string project.  As you can see it's progressed a little. It's also Texture Tuesday at Kim Klassen's and this weeks challenge is the color pink.  I love pink in photograph's so it was an easy choice to add pink tulips to "the project". All photos have had a layer of Kim Klassen's embrace with the blend mode of multiply reduced to 50% - 75%. The texture was slightly removed from the flowers. .

My string project has been winding and gluing string around a jar to create new vases. With the theme of "Modern Cariboo" decorating for the house, these little vases will fit right in. It also brings new life to pickle and other little jars that would have been destined for recycling.

Once I finished a few more jars, I'll post new pics to show you the completed project.

String Project

The weather here is still feeling like winter and we had a couple of snow storms last week, so spring projects are still a few weeks away.  A while ago I saw a project on Pinterest with colored wool and thought it would be more suitable for our house using a natural colored string.  Here's a sample of what I was doing today.

Check back tomorrow and I'll have the finished project.
