Watercolor For Charity & Monday Cheer!


Hope you all had a great weekend
I spent mine drawing and painting.
I made this miniature watercolor this weekend for a charity event. 
I ended up with three paintings
by the end of the day.


This is my "Mackie" Doll
He is from Germany and he is a hedgehog.
I think he is really cute.
My Uncle Markus or as I called him Onkel Markus
looked a lot like my Mackie Doll.
His nickname was Mackie.
My uncle had curly hair and he was like a pied piper to kids.
He loved to tease!!!
Such a fun Uncle!!!


  
Here is the back of an envelope that I made my daughter.
I added a little poem to make it 
more fun for her.
I love writing letters.  My kids love receiving these special envelopes.

Below is a nice Moon Glass goblet.  I have started a nice little collection
of this type of glassware.
They made a complete line of dinnerware in this pattern.
It's kind of fun, because it fits to almost anything!

I must keep this short, I had a long weekend and it's getting late
so I need to go to bed and get
my beauty sleep!

Have a great Monday everyone!!!
