guest artist...


I am lucky to have 5 very talented and creative kids.
Each one has their special gift of creativity, 
they are all an inspiration to me!

Today I am going to share 
Hannah's latest creation.

This fabulous piece of string art is now gracing our dining room wall.
Like all good artists Hannah made good use of her resources.

She went out to the barn.

When she came back in she had a few pieces of 
wood for her future masterpieces.


love this girl...


This is a pretty large piece, measuring 2'x2'.
She painted it white,
freehanded our great state of MI.
and the put many, many nails around the outline
and then went string crazy!

edit... see the open heart?  That represents where we live,
so you see why it's so special!

I love it!
It brings a pop of color and most importantly 

HAPPINESS

to the dining room!

Thank you BOO!  
love you!

Have a fabulous day,
and may you too be inspired by the special 
people in your life!

love, 
Theresa

  3. What a great piece of artwork from Hannah and to have free handed the outline is great. I recognized our "mitten" the second I started to scroll down. Give that girl a big gold start from another Michigander.

  4. Hannah's string art is a wonderful example of how the simplest materials can inspire fun, unique works of art. As a fellow creative-type in Michigan, my hat's off to anyone who can free-hand our state!
