Canning Jars Work In Progress

Hi Everyone,

Hope you had a fabulous weekend.  We had a nice family weekend before school starts and Brian starts his training.  Steven, my 5 year old, is starting pre-K tomorrow.  His first big boy school, he has an early July birthday so we've decided to wait to start Kindergarten until next year.  We've been through orientation, met the teacher and I think he's going to have a great year.
Still working on the middle jar but it's taking shape.

This is where I am right now on my painting.  I'm hopeful to have some large chunks of time this week to work on it.  I'll share a few more of my progress pics with you:)




I'll see you on Wednesday, hopefully with a finished piece:)

Carrie
