A fun ride on West Virginia's historic Buffalo Creek and Gauley Railroad involved pedaling 6 miles up and 6 miles back through beautiful, forested areas. Rail Explorers could be a great addition to Marianna, offering a unique way to pedal to Cokeburg Junction on the old railroad. However, residents along the route might find the noise from the Rail Explorers somewhat bothersome, even though it’s not excessively loud. Despite this, the idea of a bike trail remains appealing with the area's natural beauty and history. Visit Rail Explorers to schedule a trip. Autumn would provide a breathtaking view.

These adorable clay aquariums and terrariums have been a welcome change to my 3rd grade clay curriculum - everyone really loves them! This lesson was inspired by a post at johnpost.us - a cute clay fishbowl. It provided us the opportunity to work with rolling clay slabs, coiling, modeling, and joining clay as well as surface texture and glazing. The first week, we discussed the differences & similarities in aquariums and terrariums, and rolled our slabs. We used a bowl as our "tracer" to get the right size and cut our shapes, smoothing the edges with a drop of water on our fingers. We closed the first session by writing our names in the back and texturizing some pebbles on the bottom. Then we wrapped in plastic til the following week. My clay boards that top the tables really come in handy when rolling slabs and coils - you can read about making these here: http://dolvinartknight.blogspot.com/2013/11/clay-boards-for-tabletops.html The next session focused on brainstorming plants, animals, and objects that might be found in our containers, then coiled and modeled clay to create them, scoring and slipping to join them. After the first firing, we glazed the surface with a few coats of Blick brand glaze. To make them stand, I hot glued a cardboard easel back to each one.
This is the beginnings of a needle felted giraffe. Hours have already been spent on this project getting it to this point. Here I have put some work into the legs on one side. The legs are finished on the other side. The legs take considerable patience becuase I felt around wire. The head was […]
I was on the look out for some Valentine decor when I spotted this Topiary from IKEA. Right away my wheels started turning. I knew I could probably bend the round wire shape into a heart with just the right touch. The Topiary was listed for $8.99, I grabbed it and I thought what do I have to lose. To turn the Topiary into a heart took 2 people. One person grabbing onto the top center part of the wire with pliers, and the other person squeezing the sides of the Topiary in, while the person with the pliers pulls down. Once you have the heart shape, you can tweak it by continuing to bend the wires to make it just perfect. This was simple and quick, but whenever I think of Ivy plants or Topiaries, I imaging those vintage, aged, weathered, chippy Terra Cotta Pots. The kind you might find sitting on a window seal or potting shed in some dreamy European City. To get this look I headed to Pinterest and started researching different Pins. There are plenty of Pinterest Hacks, but 4 stood out to me as some what easy to pull off. The first is a watered down/ dry brush technique I found here. On a side note let me mention how much I love Mrs. Craftberry Bush's Blog. I adore her!! Here is a picture of what hers looked like After following her instructions this is how mine turned out. The next Pin I followed used a textured Spray paint technique found here. After spraying the entire pot with the spray paint you sand off bits of the spray paint to give it a distressed look. Once this step was complete I took black and green craft paint, watered them down with a little bit of water and dry brushed them along the base of the pot. Once the craft paint was dry, I dry brushed a touch of white paint around the entire pot to make it all blend together perfectly. Here is how this pinners pot looked... and here is mine. The next pin I followed was back to one of my favorite bloggers: Mrs Craftberry Bush this was her take again on an antique Terra Cotta pot transformation. Using plaster of paris ( I found mine at Walmart), you mix it according to the package directions and then tint it with a few drops of crafts paint. Next you appy it all over the Terra Cotta pots. It's been a while since I've worked with plaster of paris, but mine set up so quickly that by the time my pot was covered, it looked a little more like your child's first Jr. High art project in ceramics or pottery (a mysterious blob). I thought this was going to be a total fail, until I took a rough sanding sponge and started knocking the plaster of paris off the pot while it was still drying. This actually turned out to give the Terra Cotta pots a great unique texture. After the plaster of paris had dried completely, I blended the same craft paints as before (black and green) and stippled them randomly onto the pot. Then finished it off by lightly sanding with the sanding sponge to make it all blend. Here is Mrs. Craftberry Bush's antiqued pot Here is my take on the plaster of paris technique The final idea I used was actually mine. After I used the plaster of paris technique, I wondered if using drywall spackling paste would work too. My first step was to take a butter knife and slather on the dry wall paste in random spots all over the Terra Cotta pot. Then while it's still wet, take a dry paint brush and stipple the dry wall compound to give it a unique texture. I let it dry for a little while, but before it had firmly set up I took a dry paper towel and smooshed the stipple mark down in certain places to give it even more texture. Once it was dry I took the same craft paints as above (green and black) and stippled them in a random fashion all over the pot. Finally I finished it off with a light sanding to blend it all together. Here is the finished project. Here is a peek at the different aging techniques for the Terra Cotta pots with the cute Heart Topiary. I love all the different looks and textures. My favorite technique would be the dry wall spackling paste one. Thanks to Studio 5 for Hosting "West Creek Design" in another fun segment.

Decorating with color is fun! It is one of my favorite ways to incorporate some character into our builder grade home. One of the most amazing transformations in our spaces happened just with just paint. My top favorite is our main bedroom, it is a completely different room! and also the guest room
