Then finding background papers, words and such...
These two children are my Mother and one of her brothers. They are the first 2 out of 5.. I love the look on their faces...kinda lost, sweet and her coat, I love her coat...This had to be in the 30's ..
I can see my Mammaw fussing over them and getting their hair just so..even licking down a piece whtat wouldn't lay straight..you've done that haven't you? licked down a bit of your child's hair that refused to do as it should? I know I have..

Love that picture! super cute.
Oh rats, I hate that we had to change our NB deal. I'd still like to do it. How far do you live from Wax? Wish I was closer to come to the class. I'm going to suggest that the Antique Gallery have some classes there - you could come teach! In your spare time...LOL Going to see what's new at Paper Cowgirl now. I didn't get any info - am I on the list? :)N
My mom called her granny Mammaw. That is the first I've heard of anyone else doing that, but I didn't grow up in the southern states. Maybe it is a common thing. It's a lovely picture and piece that you made. Something just comes through when your heart is involved with the subject! Lovely.
