the one I got!

This is the jewelry box I got!!!!

back to normality

Well the holidays are over and its back to the grindstone! Aqeel and I started classes along with the girls on Monday. I am taking one of my two senior capstone psych courses and a ceramics class! My ceramics class is soo fun! I am not very good at wheel throwing, but I am getting better. By the end of the term I should have it! We get to make all kinds of cool stuff this term like cups, mugs, bowls, plates, pitchers, and serving dishes! The final project is planning a meal that uses all of our dishes for serving and eating. Then we have a potluck! How fun is that?! Aqeel is writing his thesis and is excited about being done in March!!!! The good thing about this term is that he doesn't to go to an actual class, which means no homework other than his paper! This works well for me cause my capstone class is gonna be time consuming. Wish us all good luck!

Need some opinions please

For Christmas Aqeel bought me a jewelry armoire that got lost in transit. We had our money refunded and now I have the chance to get the one I really want. I need some help deciding. I want an armoire that can hold several necklaces and has drawers that I can organize earrings and bracelets. It also has to look cool. Here are the three I have widdled the list down to. Please help me decide on one.

This one has 4 drawers (2 divided and 2 open) and the sides open with hooks for necklaces. I am not sure if the top opens or not.



This one is really pretty. I like all the detail in the wood. It has 2 side open doors with hooks, a flip top and five open drawers some with ring slots.



This one I really like the look of. I am not sure if I like the depth of the drawers. It has a flip top, four drawers (at least one divided), and sides open with necklace hooks.

Almost...

Ayron is only 10 months old and he is already almost walking!!!

Ward Christmas Party

This year Aysia played a shepherd and Amaya an Angel!




Santa was there too, which I kinda have issues with, but the pictures turned out pretty cute!




Jr wouldn"t sit on Santa's lap, but he wouldn't leave without putting in a request.

Finals week!

It's finals week for Aqeel and I. This would normally be a stressful time for me, but because both of my classes are studio classes all of my work has been done. Here are my midterm and final paintings...


My midterm! Here is the pic I used as a sketch for the painting. I stayed pretty true to the pic for this painting.


Here is the painting...


My final. This is the pic I used as a sketch of what I was going to paint...


Here is the painting. I changes the background to read as a wall instead of having the entertainment center there.


Here is a pic of a pot I made in my ceramics class...
