My husband and I have been enjoying the cool fall weather and having fun getting creative with our hands. I have delved into painting, mixed media and crafts while he has been busy making rings and wood working.
There is a local church close to our home, which will hold a fall festival and craft fair. We enjoy making things to bless others. I thought I would show you a few of the art projects I have been crafting.
Acrylic Painting
I painted this on wood. If you like this and want to try it here is the tutorial link for the Michael's class.

This horse is an acrylic painting adapted from a tutorial by Michelle the Painter on youtube.

This acrylic painting, Icy Florals, was a Michael's tutorial.

These two paintings are another Michael's tutorial. We used Folk art acrylic and diluted it to more of a water color consistency.

Mixed Media Art
Several Mixed Media Art Pieces. Some were done on canvas and some on wood.
Bookmarks
Here are a few bookmarks, some are done in scrapbook paper, mixed media and some painted.
I found the tutorial for the feather bookmarks and the mixed media on skillshare. The flower bookmarks with the water color backgrounds were on youtube.
Recovered Spiral Notebooks
I bought mini spiral notebooks and replaced the covers with scrapbook paper, making these a cute gift.

These are just a few items we will be putting in our craft fair this fall. I hope you have enjoyed viewing them.
