Not of all us are meant to be and besides I think painting and crafts are two totally separate categories of the arts, don't you? ;) Yes, a perfect combo for me to make this. And I just bought a I-kid-you-not "treehuggers" calendar! :) <3elly stornebrinkhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03901483285489789483noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4481012230858682867.post-48382644020186088712015-02-05T19:29:41.132-08:002015-02-05T19:29:41.132-08:00My mum is more of a crafts person.

I'm a bit embarrassed to admit that I should be the one doing the crafts because I'm a painter by academics and thus expected to be more creative but am pretty moody about pursuing creative endeavours.<br />Making trees out of discarded books sounds like fun! What more could you have asked for as a tree hugger?!Vinodinihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10293137036120700126noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4481012230858682867.post-45223752349199100902015-02-05T13:06:17.766-08:002015-02-05T13:06:17.766-08:00Thanks, though it wasn't my (original) idea! ...Thanks, though it wasn't my (original) idea! ;) I consider myself an "artist at heart" too; however, I don't include crafts with my definition. ;) That's a long time ago you made a craft Asma...perhaps time for another? ;) <3elly stornebrinkhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03901483285489789483noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4481012230858682867.post-3093591118032489242015-02-05T10:09:25.408-08:002015-02-05T10:09:25.408-08:00That's such a wonderful idea!and the tree look...That's such a wonderful idea!and the tree looks so beautiful too. I would love to learn this art. I'm an artist at heart, you see! :) the last piece i remember making is a simple nursery class work with my nephew- to draw a house and paste broom sticks on it. Sounds simple, but required real attention and neatness, and lots of time. But doing it with him made it so much fun :D asma ferdoeshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13426971625548353725noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4481012230858682867.post-11470406134040183522015-02-05T09:23:38.020-08:002015-02-05T09:23:38.020-08:00We all have our talents Sanch, and it doesn't ...We all have our talents Sanch, and it doesn't matter that you don't have a tendency towards it. :) I generally don't as well! :) I wish they had a shower curtain with pine trees on it, not a bare-branched tree! ;) <3elly stornebrinkhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03901483285489789483noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4481012230858682867.post-59538065213618468302015-02-05T02:39:47.358-08:002015-02-05T02:39:47.358-08:00I'm pathetic when it comes to arts and crafts....I'm pathetic when it comes to arts and crafts.

Just the odd one from time to time, and of course this one captured my interest due to my love of trees. Sounds like your son is rather young to be doing crafts with him: hope you both enjoy it! :) <3elly stornebrinkhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03901483285489789483noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4481012230858682867.post-17526505488015429862015-02-04T09:13:41.360-08:002015-02-04T09:13:41.360-08:00I sure do Suzy!
