Or is it just me? Boy, the past 2 weeks has been crazy busy, but I guess, this just comes along with the season 
I seem to be one that rushes and rushes to get things done at the last minute instead of taking my time and learning to enjoy it more. That’s my goal next year. I’m going to start much, much sooner!
I’ve done a little more pyrography/painting and I’m really getting hooked on it!
Here is a 12 x 16 Pine board that I’ve done for an upcoming charity auction.
I actually sketched and erased so much on the wood that it was throwing me off as far as putting together a new design, so I covered the entire piece with 1” squares of scrapbook paper and then started over. I burned the whole design onto the board and then painted her. The message on the house is from Hebrews 13:2
“Do not neglect hospitality for through it, some have unknowingly entertained angels”
I love that verse!
Here is another, 12 x 12 piece of pine:
I need to seal her and then she’s going to my Etsy store.
Hope everyone is doing ok, sorry I’ve neglected my blog visits and hope that everyone else is so busy they’ve not been able to update much anyway 
Then I won’t feel like I’ve missed so much!
I’m hoping to get back soon, but if not, MERRY CHRISTMAS to one and all!!
