Frida meet-up!

We all got together yesterday to catch up, plan our four big events for the year and...CRAFT!

After our meeting was adjourned, we busted out with bangles from DIYBangles.com and Crafty Chica markers and went to town. There is no better feeling than to add wet color to dry wood, so relaxing!

 Lucia worked on her bracelet and told us why her mom named Lucia - after the patron saint of blindness and eyesight!  It must have worked because here she is working hard on the details of her bracelet.

 April is wearing a bracelet that I made because it was too small for my wrist. The bracelet that April made fit just right, so we swapped! She showed us new pieces from her new collection of paintings.

 Here is Emily! She cracks me up. She worked on all these ornate details on her bracelet and then all of a sudden, she grabbed the black marker and covered it all! That's why I love her, she is always spunky and unpredictable! Emily is working on pieces for her space at the upcoming M7 Street Fair. (I'll be there too!)

 Anita didn't make a bracelet - yet. She worked on this elaborate crocheted necklace, very intense and beautiful! I can hardly wait to see it finished! She also made us this amazeballs lunch of shrimp, avocados, BBQ and cocktail sauce mixed together. Delish!

 Here I am modeling April's bracelet!

 Finished bracelets.

Anita made all of crocheted rings! Here is mine, I love it, it is so cute and delicate, yet it is big and colorful too!

I love that our Frida meetings always end with ART!
