In September we enjoyed a few days in a cottage on Sauble Beach. It was wonderful, the days were calm and restful and I'd planned a fun workshop for us to enjoy: making a 3D scene with a focal point. Even though it was just the two of us, it was an entertaining way to spend an afternoon.
We did some prep work in advance before our vacation. First, Mom thought a swan on a pond would be a nice piece to make, so we hunted for a small swan and found one at the local Home Hardware store (of all places). Then we mapped out the size of the piece, and she picked some driftwood to surround the swan. I poked the base until it was firm and we were ready to go!
My piece would be a tree stump, in memory of all the trees that have recently been removed from our streets in town... honestly, people don't value their trees until they're gone.
Mom's pond turned out beautiful! I am so impressed!
And my stump is exactly what I'd hoped it would be:
Bravo to us both!
