"If you hear a voice within you say, 'you cannot paint,' then by all means paint, and that voice will be silenced." --Vincent van Gogh

Step Aside, Ruby Slippers!


What a burst of sunshine, eh? My 10 year old DD is in a choral performance group. They are performaning a routine from "You're a Good Man, Charlie Brown". She is Woodstock. She needed yellow sneakers. Yeah right. So I bought her some $5 white canvas shoes and broke out my yellow Jacquard Textile Paint - and 30 fun minutes later, she's got the brightest shoes on the block! I just love them. So does she! We were thinking of all sorts of fun things to do with the sneakers - like beach scenes and polka dots. Maybe we'll even make a matching set! The nice thing about the textile paint is that it does not change the feel of the canvas, and it won't flake off. That's some yellow, isn't it?
