7 random things

Since I was tagged and I feel like sitting downstairs for a bit... I will fill out the request, but with the standard L-edits

The Rules:
• Start with 7 random facts/habits about yourself
• People who are tagged have to write their 7 things on their blog
• Then choose another 7 people to get tagged and list their names
• Don’t forget to leave them a comment to tell them they have been tagged



1. In general I find that at any given time I have no fewer than 5 projects in some form of not-finished.
2. I have heard people refer to those as UFOs... Unfinshed Objects.. so apparently my house has UFOs in it.
3. The UFOs are usually in vastly different mediums. (in other words, when I say 5 projects, I don't mean I am knitting 5 scarves or painting 5 paintings at a time)
4. My favorite art materials are.... metal, glass, cement and paint. In roughly that order.
5. Even though paint ranked as #4 in that list... I have oil paints that I am a little afraid of trying. Something about needing strong chemicals to clean your brushes/fingers and the paint not drying for ages.... it also brings to mind images of some cool painting marred by stupid pets while I'm not home.
6. I tried batiking for the first time ever today. let me tell you. it's a SLOOOOOW process.
7. my hands were dyed blue-green for most of friday and saturday but I remembered to wear gloves when batiking today.... so except for a little dye around all of my fingernails, we're pretty back to normal in this house :)
