Let's throw together a fall wreath for the Autumn Equinox with no experience necessary! After crafting for many years I learned that if you’re a little brave and do even just a tiny bit of research, you can set yourself up for success on just about any project.

Today I had a magical rare day off where I had almost nothing I had to do and I was frozen with indecision. Then I realized what I really wanted to do, something I’ve dreamed of doing for a long time: Plein air painting!

If you’re like me, color is wildly intimidating. There are posts and videos everywhere explaining color theory, but it felt like a massive puzzle that I just couldn’t put together. So I tried what the great artists of the past did. I painted studies.
