@%&#!

A failed attempt of a hand drawn silk screen.....

I screwed this up earlier in the year and was able to rinse out most of the filler....the reddish brown stuff....

So i thought maybe i could salvage it....so i reapplied my filler and liner so patiently and quite diligently....and well.... nope....its not gonna work....so now i have to get some screen remover so i can at least re use the screens....this is the second one i have jacked up....at least Sophie had fun coloring them in....well i did the pink one...but how amazing did Sophie's turn out?... she is 3 and half....well better luck next time to me....hopefully there will be some holiday fun posts next week!

  1. Too bad it didn't work out (I know nothing about doing this) but you should definitely be proud and brag about it to all your friends and family of how good a coloring job she did! Have a great weekend!
