A special commission

 I was working on a special watercolor commission lately. 

Four cute pets of Lauren's family are having a tea party.

These prints are for a newly born baby girl's room!

I would love to know which animal is your favorite in this illustration!?

Here you can see their super cute photos and my initial sketch.

Dancing around the May Pole.

Which animal is your favorite in this painting?

DIY How to color your own map tacks

I love map tacks. How about you?

Unfortunately I couldn't find that many lovely colors in the market.

Most of the ones I found were primary colors. Then one night I dreamt of 

a whole lot of map tacks in adorable pastel colors. Haha! That sounds silly but 

when I woke up I was still thinking about that dream...and then I decided

to color my own map tacks using nail polish! 

Aren't they adorable? 

All you need is two flat nose pliers, some white map tacks and some nail polish colors

(I have a big collection of nail polish. Some are from 15 years ago!!!)

Hope you enjoy and have fun trying this little DIY project!
