I saw another who glued (removable glue) the canvas to a board to keep the edges from curling) then painted the resin thinly first then let that dry. It gave him a hardened but leveled canvas. Then he poured. The result was beautiful. He sanded the edges and top and polished for top shine.

There is always a baby around for a cuddle as we come from a big family, her friends are having babies, plus work colleagues babies. Keep safe and take care x

My daughter used to have dogs, but they have passed and since her divorce, she hasn't had the heart to get anymore as yet. She's having a rough time of it. I wish I lived closer to my sister and her kids, because I could share her grandkids with her Lol. You take care and be safe also! xx

Hi there Judy!! They would have to drag me out if they tried taking me out on one of their "fun" walks - I would probably be unresponsive at that point Lol. The heat and humidity is just too much for me. I am looking forward to fall, and just hoping that we will get lower than in the 80's with high humidity during that time. I would love to have 60's and 70's for the fall - in my dreams..... I just might need to make a trip to Wisconsin some day..... That cooler weather sounds heavenly. 🥰🤗💖

I enjoy your wip & chats…it gives us a chance to know the real you. I can’t imagine myself living in Texas with the heat and humidity. I visited my in-laws in Southern Texas at Thanksgiving one year, and it was still too hot for me. I had them cranking that air conditioning up in their house and nearly froze them out! 😂 I live in Minnesota and we sometimes have snow around Thanksgiving, so I thought it would be nice and cool for the end of November in Texas….my gosh, the heat was a real shock! I’m sorry to say I won’t be visiting Texas any time soon! 😳 You have some great stories…love the one where the road got washed out 😂

Thank you so much Deborah!! Your kind words are so appreciated. I'm in Southeast Texas, and the heat and humidity seem to last forever. I remember times when we were wearing shorts and short sleeves on Christmas Day - you just never know. There are times when it is cool around Thanksgiving, but it's kind of like a crap shoot - you never know Lol. It's imperative to have air conditioning in Texas. That road washing out was a real treat 😂😂

Hello my friend, sounds like you could not win for losing with that rain. Oh my god, the road was washing out and you could not get out. How scary is that? Man oh man. You were having a horrible time. I think I would be the same way about walking 13 miles. I would tell them to just go ahead I will be fine at home. I happy you are going to visit your sister. 2 years is too long to go without seeing her. I am so excited for Isaac and his wife. I hope that she is doing fine with the pregnancy. I am looking forward to the new releases by Captured by radiance. See what is coming out. I hope you have a good day Grace. Say Hi to Jerry and all the animals and crittiers. Take care and I will talk with you soon.

Hello there my sweet friend!! That rain was awful, and it came so fast and hard, that there was no preparing for it. Thank goodness I had Jerry to come and rescue me LOL. As far as walking 13 miles, that is a hard no from me!! Ari, Issac's wife, is doing great right now, and I pray that she continues to do so and has a very safe delivery of their son. It's so exciting. I'm going to me sisiter's tomorrow, so I am happy to see everyone. You take care and I look forward to talking with you soon!!

The Christmas tree is gorgeous! THE bird one is way awesome. So large. That one will take awhile! When I first started doing counted cross stitch, I so glad someone pointed out the floss comes 6-stranded and you only have to seperate 2 of those 6 strands out to stitch with. I would have used 2, 6 strand hanks of floss 😛🤣 Cant image how thick that would have been? LMAO 😛🤣
