Hello sweet friends how is your week so far? With the kiddies being off yesterday, today felt like a Monday for me and I feel like I’m playing catch up.
But that’s ok because I got to visit Ikea and got some pretty things . I can’t wait to share them with you during an upcoming Spring tour.
But I digress, I wanted to tell you about this week’s ehow post.
I played around with different mediums to achieve a watercolor effect for my. Aren’t these cool?
Head on over to eHow to see how easy they were to make. Thank you so much.
I’ll be back tomorrow with another sweet little Spring idea.
In the mean time, I hope you have a beautiful day.
much love,
I think they are beautiful but, if I’m being truthful, they aren’t the colors I would have chosen. My faves are yellow, orange and green, the brighter the better, but then that’s just me. I love how you did them. I did something like it one Easter when a paper towel I was using on some eggs got into the dye. It made a tie dye effect on the paper towel when the ink spread out on it! That was a happy accident for sure. I want to do some and use them as a background for greeting cards. Thanks for showing us! I love Ikea! You can find so many different things there that you don’t see in regular stores.
Queda muy bonito!
Great idea! It seems to be easy work so I’ll try this with my kids next weekend.
How cute! I love these!
These are absolutely gorgeous! Who knew napkins could look like pieces of art work! I was very intrigued with all the methods you used. I too set out to see if I could watercolor on fabric. I used everyday watercolor paints and added a fabric medium. You can check them out in this link, if you would like. I went with brighter spring colors, but I do love all the blue tones you used. So lovely! Your work always amazes me!

The napkins look very cool. Thanks for sharing.
