Fall 2015

The fall went quickly and the holidays are upon us!  They seen to be running together craft wise ...

First, pumpkins and more pumpkins!  I actually did these before Halloween, and they stayed displayed through Thanksgiving ... The white, black, and silver will actually be on the mantle up all year, except from tomorrow through Christmas, while the stockings are hung ...







These are all "craft" pumpkins; the "black" ink is Identapen, the white is Gelly Roll.  The silver and beige pumpkins are not tangled, just extras ... their is always next year!

Since it was pumpkin season, I had to take the idea to the classroom, and with a directed draw lesson and a few patterns my fourth graders (ages 9-10) produced these ~ they took them home for Thanksgiving.  They selected where to put the patterns, and added a little color for shading.  This is only the second tangle project the students have done.









Happy Thanksgiving!
