Test Video for my blogging course

If you can't see this video. it is because it is a house tour, so I have chosen to make it private for just family members to view.  But now that I know how to make a movie for the blog, I can do some journal flips and technique videos, so there will be lots of content soon!

Today I finally got to publish the draft of my first post for this blog, written in March - see below.  I think I need to print out todays blogging lesson, because there is too much stuff to remember, and I think I have labels and properties confused!  Since starting this blog, I have begun the 21 Secrets workshops.  I really enjoyed "Go Green" by Rae Missigman. The book I made for this workshop was totally from recycled materials.

These included an old book for the cover and some of the pages, fabric remnants, re-used painted paper towels, onion bags,  paint color samples, an old key, beads made from remnants, tickets, coffee sleeves, cut-up paint sponges and much more.
