A little whimsical, as every mushroom should be, I think. Just like all dogs should be boys and all cats, girls. The detailing on on the caps is what catches my eye! Love these little samples you are sharing with us! Inspiring! And thank you so much for the information on the crackle on your tiny bottle. I was wondering if it were DecoArt glaze. I laughed at your subliminal words about "turning in". I suppose having only a few hours of sleep would make you think of turning in! Ha! Ha! enjoy your weekend!sarasclosethttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09721374629006409763noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8817270423416767524.post-17515953916789530872017-03-09T13:09:59.716+01:002017-03-09T13:09:59.716+01:00Beautiful watercolor!
