I've been working on expanding on and increasing my level of craftiness. Both in terms of secret undercover operations and in terms of the decorative arts. Here's my status with the latter form of craft.
My Crafternoon with friends a few weekends ago went well enough, in spite of my summer cold. A fun time was had by all and the creations were quite spectacular in one way or another.
One of our projects involved using plastic bags which I have been diligently collecting for years, especially if they are pretty colors or have cool graphics. In spite of the fact that I try to use reusable totes, I had plenty of the plastic variety on hand for this project . Here are some samples of the work. The beet is a farm inspired one - I'm going to keep trying to see if I can come up with one that does the farm-raised beet justice.

The lime green with bright blue man figure is Penny's creation - two of her favorite colors of the moment - I think I'm going to frame it and include it in her room make over for her B-day in January.
The other two are mine made as examples for the Crafternoon.
