This was one of my favorite projects from my summer art camp! The students were introduced to Salvador Dali, surrealism and especially his outrageous mustache. I snapped their pictures, each student created their own mustache and added a surreal world behind their photos with crayons. I love the flying pig, surreal elephant and twisty giraffe in this unique world from one of my talented summer artists!Ellenhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08391190023541272029noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5834271515639034169.post-79384552595120957612015-01-11T20:06:00.000-06:002015-01-11T20:06:12.213-06:00Romero Britto inspired jumbo snowmen<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

I came across this Romero Britto snowman ornament which provided the inspirations for my fifth graders' cooperative jumbo snowmen. Each table of three students worked on giant snowballs, boots, hats, scarfs, etc. adding bright bold patterns with black accents and assembled the pieces with glue when finished.<br />

A few fake pumpkins and a few real ones, real gourds, pine cones, and fake leaves.  <br>
Really proud of my refurbished gourds. They are home grown, and years ago I painted. After I did, I regretted it. But after a few years they started peeling, so this year I used a little steel wool, wood stain, and polyurethane. I love how they turned out, not sure I could recreate it if I tried.<br>
Enjoy, Lori</p>

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: large;">Life is beautiful and precious, and I am lucky to see it's beauty often. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: large;">This spring, when working in my garden, I noticed a momma bird flying out of the cavity of an old cow skull we have hanging on the fence.</span></div>
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: large;">After doing a little research, we determined they were a type of sparrow eggs.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: large;">A couple weeks later, we were lucky enough to see them hatched, and waiting to be feed by mom.</span></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: large;">About the same time, I found another nest in my window boxes. Our research lead us to believe that these were wren eggs. No picture of the chicks though.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: large;">The shelves are beautifully built, functional oak. We each have our own cubby. We have a shelf for helmets, thermos', gloves, etc... Then we have a tall section with hooks for bags, jackets, etc...Finally we have the grated bottom, this is a great place for our rubber boots.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: large;">In addition to us having our own 'cubby', we utliized the side for essentials like a papertowel dispenser or bug spray. The top shelves are for those not often used items like party trays or large stock pots. And don't forget the area for our recycles, just out the door.</span></div>

<span style="font-size: large;">Our favorite way to enjoy the garden fresh tomatoes.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

Sorry no before pictures, I have been out of the blogsphere for a while, so I realized I forgot to take a pic after I added my base color. I followed these great steps from <a href="http://www.shanty-2-chic.com/2012/03/distress-paint-with-vaseline.html">Shanty-2-chic</a> on how to distress paint with vaseline. I love all their ideas!! I used spray paint for both coats of paint. I did add one more step, I rubbed on paste wax and than just buffed it off for my final coat since I love the look! <br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I finally put my solar chandelier together after storing everything in my shed since last summer. I got the idea from my good friend, Windy. I took all the electric wires out and unscrewed the bulbs, than glued on solar lights. See my post on a <a href="http://barnnumber2.blogspot.com/2012/06/diy-solar-wall-sconce-and-garden.html">diy solar wall sconce</a> for more details... Its hanging on my back patio, love the twinkling lights...</span>Ellenhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08391190023541272029noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5834271515639034169.post-88479776507483818452013-07-03T06:30:00.000-05:002013-07-03T06:30:03.642-05:00What's Cooking Wednesday-Taco Soup<div style="text-align: center;">

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small; text-align: left;">**This is a recipe my mom shared. I don't know the origin, therefore, unable to give credit. Please let me know if it's yours.**</span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: large;"> This is a great week night recipe.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: large;">Ingredients</span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
</div>
<ul>
<li><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: large;"> rotisserie or grilled chicken (bones removed)</span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: large;">1 can mexicorn</span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: large;">1 can campbell's tomato soup</span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: large;">1 can black beans</span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: large;">1 ranch seasoning packet</span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: large;">1 taco seasoning packet</span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: large;">Sour Cream</span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: large;">Shredded Cheddar Cheese</span></li>
</ul>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: large;"> Dump the ingredients into a stockpot, mix and warm up. Served with a dollop of sour cream and shredded cheese on top, with tortilla chips on the side.</span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: large;">My alterations to the recipe:</span></div>
<div>
<ul>
<li><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: large;">The recipe does not call for it, but I add 1 or 2 cans of diced tomatoes.</span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: large;">I often double the soup, corn, and beans to the chicken ratio.</span></li>
</ul>
</div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
