My Friday Finds . . .

A few of the things I find each week that spark my interest, intellect and curiosity.  I hope that they do the same thing for you.  Its hard to believe that this is my last Friday Finds post for May. This month (year!) has just flown by!

 

Five basic watercolour techniques for the colourist, artist, beginner, journalist, etc.   Found on Adventures in Making.

 

Crochet your own shopping bag.   From The Adventures of Cassie.

 

Matching cotton dishcloth and teatowel pattern. To crochet.  From The Yarn Box.

 

Decorate a handbag with buttons.  So sweet and so simple.  Found on Inspire  Co.

 

Two Brothers Two.  
In this unique documentary series Two Brothers Two, director Rick Stevenson takes us on a 10-year journey through the lives of the Nelson brothers, Sam, Luke, Tommy, and Joseph, as they struggle to find love for each other and for themselves.  There are sixteen short videos, each about 10 minutes long.  It is a compelling look into the lives of these four brothers.  I discovered it by accident yesterday morning and I watched ALL sixteen videos yesterday.  I couldn't not watch it.  Each one inspired me to want to watch the next one.   It was fantastic.

 

A Unique idea for holding your earrings.  Found on Homemade Crap. 

 

How to make your own compound Herb Butters.  From Buzzfeed. 

 

Maraschino Cherries from Scratch.  Found on Creagirl.

If you want to be 
truly understood,
you need to say everything
three times, 
in three different ways.
Once for each ear  . . . 
and once for the heart.
