It's a pool party!


Good morning blogger peeps, I thought I would post before breakfast this morning. Who am I kidding, my three cups of coffee count as my breakfast! 
Onto the pool party...
As you can see, I was struggling with painting an empty pool -the walls, the curved bottom edge, and the shadows. So what does one do with these issues?  
First: change the music you're listening to.  I know it sounds odd, but if you're like me and you listen to the same selection on your iPod or even the same radio station, change it up.  I'm talking alternative to jazz, headbanging metal to blues.  Yep, these are my jams.
Second:

Build yourself a pool out of paper.
Then go back, and repaint.
Much better :-). Not sure if you noticed, but a few more kiddos joined the pool party!
