Artistically Challenged

I am terrible at drawing and it seems Rex has inherited this from me. He likes to draw circles, jump ropes, snakes and even a plug and cord (this is what he says his drawings are- too funny!). What he lacks in drawing abilities, he certainly makes up for with his creativity and imagination. Here he is with a little of his artwork.



While I can't draw, I do okay with some creative pursuits. I like crafts and scrapbooking and things usually turn out pretty good. Lately I have been trying to make a few wreaths after picking up the BH&G Holiday Crafts magazine. I made a Halloween wreath partially inspired by that magazine and this wreath.



For my first attempt at a wreath, I am very happy with it. I thought it would be easy to find a spider at the store but couldn't find one in the right size so ended up making my own. He had a tragic accident and lost half his legs but he has a nice home on our wreath on our front door now. Maybe there is hope for Rex after all!
