Here are more art journal page ideas in my playlist ❤ ruclips.net/p/PLEvk3pLyFljAwXi5nMP48hTJuBApuDoCa&si=x71OFmFUq6wUicA7
I have watched many of them several times!!!😁
Janet you are so amazing. I enjoyed your video immensely! Thank you for your goodness. ❤
Cheryl thank you so much for your lovely encouragement. Do hope you get a bit of time to relax this weekend 🩵🫖
I love the little safety pin page toppers.
Oh thank you so much Lisa. Do hope you get chance for a bit of creating this weekend 🩵
Oh my gosh Janet, I watched the Depression Cooking channel for years and cried when she passed away. Her nephew keeps her legacy going. I relate a lot to her growing up similarly, and my parents too ( they grew up during the war in Italy). We currently are in a depression in Canada actually. Ppl are struggling here, life is not as it was anymore. We are back to my childhood days in frugality. What a sweet lady❤ She made recipes I still make taught to me by my mother like using cicoria (dandelion greens).
Flo’s tiny glass cookie jar filled with paperclips was so cute! wow she is fully stocked this little fairy. Freddie melts my heart of course every time. And your experiments are wonderful.
I want to see your recipe for the eyeshadows. Mine involves honey and gum arabica. Maybe yours is easier.
I will be using my own alcohol inks made with Sharpies to dye metals too.
That egg tempera kit floored me! I make my own egg tempera and have painted pieces this ancient way. I love it. The pigments are mixed with egg yolk (skin removed), with vinegar as stabilizer. The yolk as the emulsifier and creates a very long lasting paint over gesso panels. Did you get it??? That was a true find! I would have loved that wow.
Since I injured myself outside, no gardening, potting, or much of anything for a bit for me. All I can do is watch videos and worry about chores and duties piling up. Thank u for these lovely escapes Janet.
That crochet border is beautiful. I need to try it and would love that around a shawl💜💜💜🌸🌼🌻🌺
I need to learn about nettle compost too. This is my first year with nettles. I planted seeds last year and one tiny plant survived our harsh winter. I cherish it and hope it makes seeds so I can plant more and finally use them.
Dear Jane, I do hope you can rest and recover and soon be out in your garden, meantime I know you will be researching nettle compost and maybe tea and soup too.
I bought a premixes water colour binder because it was my first time, gum Arabic, honey and oil of cloves.
The little egg tempura pallet was absolutely incredible and I know the right person will come along and treasure it.
Take good care Jane 🩵🫖
Love the project. Today's Quote:“Believe and act as if it were impossible to fail.” - Charles Kettering. I watched it twice so I could get the quotes. Huge HUGS! Namaste from the Pineapple County Gang! 🐞🧚🐞🐾🐞

Love to you, hubby and the family 🩵🫖🍪
Nice new digs, Ben and partner. Have fun fixing it up.
Janice thanks from Ben, it’s a lovely place same era as my place, well ten years older 1920. Sending love Janice 🩵
I enjoy the Depression Cooking channel as well, Janet. Simple, basic recipes ( that leave me some money to buy art supplies 🙄😉)
Heather isn’t Clara amazing, what a wonderful family to share her with us. 🩵
Fabric, paint and paper with a little sparkle, always a lovely combination, thanks so much for sharing dear Janet. Such a sweet little Robin , I wonder if it is nesting in that lovely pink flowering shrub in your garden? Ben's new flat looks great, seems to be lots of light and I loved the little stained glass windows, I hope he finds it comfortable and is very happy there. 💖 🧵💛
Thank you so much Maria, isn’t Bens flat pretty. There is a holly tree in the corner of the garden I wonder if the nest is there ? we definitely won’t be doing any chopping for a while, that’s our excuse and we’re sticking to it. Rest well Maria 🩵🧵🎨
Oh, Janet- What a lovely sesh! So much going on... thank you for sharing about the Depression cooking show and taking us along antiquing. I went to a Peddler's Market this morning and bought an antique enamel-top table for my studio. More space for creating! Happy Sunday and blissful creating. 🥰🥰🥰
Majella oh thank you so much for spending time with us. What a lovely name a ‘ peddlers market ‘ very medieval, have fun with your new table.
My creative area is in disarray ! Ben needs his cabinet and desk that sit behind me, I had quite a bit of stuff in them ! good to have a sort out though. Will have to keep my eye open for a table for Seraphina now.
Have a gentle Sunday 🪴🧵
@@janetnash I love the table! I now have less floor space but more work, storage, and display space. Have a blessed week, Dear Janet. 🐦🐦🐦
Thank you 🩵
Greetings Janet and crew! Looking forward to joining in the Monday live tomorrow although it might be a little on the late side. I have a positive quote. "Take all the time you need." I saw it today and it was with lots of turtles and snails. 🐢🐌🐢🐌🐢
What a great quote thank you I will share it with everyone. See you soon but absolutely no pressure 🩵🫖
I really enjoyed the time in the garden! Dying of the paper and bird on the fence!
Thank you so much, little Robin’s are so tame, just love them. Have a lovely week 🩵❤️

Lovely video xx I love watching & listening to you, I am definitely so relaxed by the end of your videos 🤗🤗 You should be charging us therapy fees 😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😍😍 Am I right in thinking that you don't take meds for high blood pressure, you are so chilled out 😍😍😍😍 TFS XXXXXX😘😘😘😘😘
Oh Pauline 😊 thank you so much, you are so kind. Take care good care of yourself 🩵
Oh yes, I want to see how you make the eye shadow paint. I know you said before how you needed to add a binder....Im so curious.
Well now, 14 carat gold safety pins!! Lovely being with you again today, Janet, Freddie, and friends.❤❤
So I wasn't familiar with egg tempera paint so I googled it. That was the primary method of painting before 1500 when it was superceded by oil painting. It was made from pigment and binder. The binder was actually egg yolk. Answering the question, "is egg tempera still used today"? It said, "unfortunately, few artists use this medium today. The most notable American artists in recent history using it are Andrew Wyeth, Paul Cadmus, Thomas Hart Benton, and Robert Vickery.
One recipe calls for egg yolk, sterile water, alcohol, and dry pigment. Oh, further info...Egg tempera was used by the early Italian Renaissance artists; Botticelli, Raphael, and Andrew Wyeth. Actually, there is a wealth of information on Google about this...interesting reading.
binder
Linda lovely to see you. How interesting to learn about the egg yolk as a binder, definitely worth an experiment sometime and you can actually buy pre-made egg tempera binder, we have both been researching. The antique tin was so precious, so glad we could see it and I left it behind for just the right person to find.
Have a wonderful weekend 🧵
Hahhahah, LOOOK at you with your two water jars 🎨💜 makes my watercolor teacher's heart happy 😊🤓 So funny, Mom and I had a craft night last week and I made six very similar covers for mini junk journals, SO fun. YESSS, matchy-matchy, I love the coordinating paperclips, brilliant 🌼 Love the upside-down chicken fix. Very cute.
Freddie can spell you know... 😉
The Depression cooking channel sounds so interesting. I've been interested in that event forever. There are two WONDERFUL books about the period I'd recommend if you're interested in learning more:
"Out of the Dust" is an award-winning YA book by Karen Hesse, a novel told in (poetry) verse. It's a great story about one young family's experience during the Dust Bowl (that took place at the same time as The Depression)
"The Worst Hard Time, The untold story of those who survived The Great American Dust Bowl" by Timothy Egan; a nonfiction book by a New York Times' journalist. I learned so much about that time period and the reality of living in the Dust Bowl and how far reaching its effects were. Really a good read.
Congrats to Ben on his new digs, that's always such a refresh, moving to a new place. It looks wonderful!!
Fun fact: egg tempra paint is the MOST permanent of all paints (ever tried getting dried egg yolk off something??) that was always on my art quizzes, lol. What a fabulous old find, a treasure. Egg yolk was added as a binding to powered pigment, tempera...and then used on canvases (A. Wyeth era)
Ker how wonderful to have a creative sech with your Mum, precious times.
Thank you for the book recommendation, I have been getting back into social history recently.
How interesting the egg tempera paint facts, looked it up and one can still buy the egg medium, maybe an experiment for another time.
Have a lovely time snuggled with Bits 🐾 this weekend. 🩵
