Howdy Howdy

It's already "H" week for Alphabe-Thursday!

I've been busy painting this week, so I have FIVE signs to show you!

Our oldest Grandlittle had no painting time this week.   She has forsaken the letter "H" to take Ballroom Dancing lessons.   Geez.   Some little kids just have no focus.  ha!   She's painting this weekend she says.

Anyway.

Because I ran out of time at Christmas, I painted this sign that I wanted to do the entire month of December.


I really like the angel background.

This is one of my favorite Thoreau quotes.  I like the super pale pink letters against the sky blue.

 
Ah.   Hope.  One of my favorite words.  I like the coloring of this sign.
 
 
Okay.   Yeah.   See I told you I got carried away this week!
 
Here's a little, mooshy/gooshy sign!   Awwwww.   And this does, too, have an H in it!
 
 
 
And the last one is kind of different for me.   This color is a super dark purple blended with brown.  I like it combined with the pale slate blue lettering.
 
 
 
These are all hand-painted and available in my Etsy shop...you can see the mini link at the top right of my blog or click on any picture for a link!  No stickers...no stencils...my designs (and my Grandlittle's, too!)

Thanks for stopping by!

I love the Thoreau quote! I also like your Hope. Full sign. You really have been busy. It's good to start your signs now for next Christmas!

Holly said...

You are such a talent! You must have more hours in your day than I do (couldn't be that you use your time more effectively~)!
I hope you don't have to disown the granddaughter! Maybe she can pass her lessons on to you! I would love to take lessons...someday!!

Viki said...

I LOVE the love one. I'm still deciding which sign I'm going to want. I don't think the love colors would match though.

Theresa said...

Hark, you can really paint! I am thinking it is time to scoot into a little decorating store and see if you can sell some of your work. It is that good.

I had no idea you had an etsy shop but I'm on my way over there now. I can't decide which sign is my favorite but you're awesomely talented.

VBR said...

Oh! What a happy little horde of handmade harkening! hey, I was trying for a lot of h words! I like them all. but, I think my favorite is Hope. Full.

Pondside said...

I love all of them - and last week's Great Dane sign ..... well that was inspired!

Cathy Kennedy said...

You know, I linked up yesterday and then forgot to comment on this post as well as the Alphabe-Thursday post. How on earth did I miss doing that? I think I'm a brick shy of a full load. Oh well, these are all excellent & beautiful signs. I don't know how you write so well with a brush with no lines when I struggle to write with a pencil or pen without lines. Everything slopes up or down. :(

Don't know which I like best they're so good!

Great H creations. I especially like the Hark one. (I always love when you paint something in the background.)

=)

Terrific H creations!

A belated Happy New Year to you & your family - and many thanks for hosting this great meme!

Ordinary Words....the flu has left my building♫ finally getting around to commenting on your wonderful signs♫ the Hark, Angels...is my favorite this time around. Be Janu-Wary!

I glanced at the first one and read "Hank the herald angel sings." I just have to start paying better attention!!!

Esther Joy said...

You have such a steady beautiful handwriting. It's sad that handwriting is becoming a lost art!

Busy Bee Suz said...

I love them all; as always. Ballroom dance lessons??? Oh my, that is so darn exciting!

Amy said...

I think that angel one is my favorite. What inspired you to paint these, in the first place?

Splendid Little Stars said...

Your signs are lovely! designs, colors, sayings!
I like "put a little love in your ♥" and included it in an etsy treasury I made.
