It's been a very chilly month with snow and cold wind. Haven't done any spring cleaning or pruning outside. I was busy cranking on a cross stitch I started in mid-March and finished that the first part of April. I made it for my stepson & stepdaughter in law in Ohio.
I pulled out this watch face when I was doing the resin crafts, found the back for it and decided to just fill it with some Swarovski crystal beads and glued the back on.
There was a Pinterest pic going around also on Facebook, for 'glow stick bubbles'. Filled a jar with the bubble solution and cut open the glow stick. It worked great at first but the glow chemicals faded almost immediately.
I added a second glow stick and ran outside to blow the bubbles before the light faded out.
The wand in the jar. Unfortunately the bubbles themselves didn't glow at all. I suspected that the walls of the bubbles would be too thin to see and that was the case. I don't recommend cutting open glow sticks. I've done it before and the stuff smells bad and you can't help having it spill or drip on stuff.
Had a stunning sunset on the 12th after pouring rain all day.
Still working on my calendar project and started a new cross stitch. Pepper's not doing well at all so that's had me really down as well. And on top of that, I've been bone weary exhausted, having bouts of anxiety and not sleeping well either. Seriously been a 'blah' month. Hopefully things will get better when we get some consistent days of warm weather.
