Charisse's 30 by 30

Welcome to my site. The point of this site is documenting the 30 things that I have said I am going to do before I am thirty. I will turn 30 on March 25, 2007! See the first post for the history of "30 by 30" and the entire list!

Creativity On Overdrive

I am a creative person but not when it comes to art projects. I put learning a craft on my list, because I knew it would be something that one of my dearest friends - Berta - would want to do it with me. She is always has a new project. She can make beautiful books, cards, pillows, and now she is into jewelry. She loves doing all of that stuff and I have no interest. But, that is why we are friends we are as different as night and day.

Saturday, Berta and I took on a new artistic task and learned how to create stain glass. A few months ago I enlisted our friend, Don to be our teacher. Our lesson started around 9:30 and Don has several cartoons drawn out for me to choose from. After much deliberating I decided to go with the design that looks like an abstract 30. This was diffidently a team project and we all had input on what the final piece would look like.

My favorite part of the day was to be able to watch such a creative minds at work. Thank you, Don for being a part of my 30by30 and being such a good teacher.
