My Inspiring Art and Nature Walk Part 2

These photos were taken on a walk over to my horse barn in the morning. I am always amazed by the inspiring nature all around me. The colors, shapes and textures. I had quite a few photos so I will be posting part 1 and part 2. 
Part 2
Heart!

Birds nests I found on the ground, the one on the left is horse hair. The birds love to make nests from my miniature horses hair, but they blow away easily and I find them on the ground a lot.


These are spiky balls from the sugar gum tree. I wish I could figure out something to make out of them that I could sell because we have thousands of them on our land. 

More of Tennessee's pretty rocks.

Our Eastern red bud tree is so beautiful this time of the year.

My inspiring Art and Nature Walk Part 1

These photos were taken on a walk over to may horse barn in the morning. I am always amazed by the inspiring nature all around me. The colors, shapes and textures. I had quite a few photos so I will be posting part 1 and part 2.


Below is a tall dead tree stump on our land.

Our Peach tree blossoming.

There are some amazing rocks here in Tennessee.
But I think these may be to heavy to make a necklace.

And of course my little ones have to rush right over to see what I am up to. This is FlutterBy and she is 4 yrs and 28"h.

Adding and Addition onto our House Part 3



Well it's been a busy couple of weeks but the addition on the back of our house is pretty much done. Just a few minor things left and of coarse clean up, dust and debris.
The right side is the garage addition which will be pretty convenient for a packing area for my Etsy shops.

Here is a photo of the inside where the glass doors are. 
We didn't cover over the brick wall that use to be the outside. I think it gives it a nice rustic look.


A few DIY Tips - The wide wood around where the old door way was has to be stained. The sides I will use a small brush as not to get it on the white molding but the wide wood part I will use a white cloth to put the stain on. It seems to go on more even with a cloth.

Calking Tip - Make sure you cut the opening to your calk tube on a slant and not to big,. Cut it about the size cracks you will be filling. When calking the trim around the windows and baseboards. Run a bead of calk all along the baseboard top and wet your finger and run it along the the calk it blends it in well and gives it a nice finish look.
