This week I'm actually trying to make a bit of art, although I'm having little success. I DO love my new art tool holder, though. It is even better than the one that rotates, and this one takes up less space.
My rocking horse tonight is rather Christmas-y, but I like it because it acts as a planter or a large candy container. And of course, it rocks, too!
I thought I would make some elephants for Amy, but I'm not sure they are going to be good enough for her. After all, Amy is madly in love with the elephant Julia sent her.
And here is the final piece I worked on this evening. Actually, I've been working on it (and the other one, too) for three days, because I keep waiting for parts to dry. And just think. I've only started on it. These are made of wood left over from my new porch.I hope to visit many of you this week, but today I have to be gone all day, then tomorrow I have another commitment for part of the day, which means I'm not starting the WOYW week out very good. Have a great week, anyway and know I'll really try to visit you when I can, since I'm sure some of you will be at the "big" wedding this week, too.

Lovely to see you here again, Elizabeth, hope you find time to create more soon.
I'm not patient enough to let things dry properly and usually end up rushing in and spoiling things so well done you.

That rocking horse is so cute, and I am sure the elephants will be very welcome.
I love the elephant canvas. really lovely colour combo.
I love it that you can work on more than one thing at a time. Me, I just get myself in a right old mess if I have too many things on the go.
This week’s rocking horse is sweet but I just wonder how and where you store them all.
Have fun and ……….Happy Crafting!

A rocking horse that hold candy is VERY cool! Glad you liked my new tidy desk today :-)
It looks like you have some very fun projects going!
Hi Elizabeth; the porch off-cuts are put to very good use. If the rocking horse were on my desk, I'd stuff it with sweets.
Take care!
