{This Moment}

{this moment} - A Friday ritual. A single photo - no words - capturing a moment from the week. A simple, special, extraordinary moment. A moment I want to pause, savor and remember.

If you're inspired to do the same, leave a link to your 'moment' in the comments for all to find and see. Inspired by Soulemama.

    Beautiful colors. What is the wooden frame around the painting? Is it a light box?

    This week, our cat decided that he wanted to see what this car toy was all about...
    Have a great week-end!

      Thanks! That is a painting board. We were doing wet on wet watercolour, so the paper is soaked and then laid on the board and sponged to remove the excess water before painting.

      Happy weekend!

    Beautiful. I don't think anything relaxes my children more than painting with watercolors! Have a wonderful weekend!

    Such a peaceful moment. My daughter has been asking to paint a lot lately as well. We painted rainbows the other day and hung them in her room. Ikea had adorable water color sets for only a couple of dollars. : )

    Have a beautiful weekend ~ Wendy

    Looks like you've had a week filled with beautiful craft activities. Thank you for doing the post on the God's Eyes, they're not something I've come across before and they look great, we'll definitely try them. I really love some of Reece's colour combinations, please tell him they were good quilt inspiration as well as inspiration for crafts for my little ones! Hope you have a wonderful weekend.
