General Mayhem..
This is what I normally do on a Thursday..an engrossing, soul-enhancing, spirit-lifting art class in the sanctuary of a wooden hut on the green, leafy, quiet Common..
Today, this is my reality…it’s half term…so I’m at home..with the kids..and we’re working (??)(*&^%^%$£@!..hindering??) on a Top Secret project..which always seems like such a good idea in the abstract…
A happy worker!
I’ve now learnt that black gloss, children and white, blind dogs really don’t mix…pray for me..and my floors..and possibly my sanity..
Laters, Kate x

You are fearless, girl: Those carpets and floors and you let children to black paint! And your secret project seems to be a huge thing. Fearless. I say. Congratulations!
The secret project has been HUGE. All will be revealed..fearless or foolhardy??! xxx
Paint the dog black kids…he’ll never know….Kate you are a joy xx
One pot of paint between the three of us…and now they think they can paint anything!! xxx
What were you thinking?! Still, at least you got some great photos of the kids out of the deal . . .
We started this last week..and the last bits are still downstairs drying!! It’s been a long, long haul! xxx
Your floors will become your secret project! Thankfully you still got your blind guardian but… hey!… I thought I saw a black one… what d’ya mean white dog?? … xxx
Sometimes I question my intelligence!! But we did get there in the end…it’s all for an event on friday..pictures will no doubt follow at some point..but I am sooooo glad they’re finished! xxx
You are making memories, mum. Consider your home as a model for your children’s FUTURE homes. You are passing on the richness of living!
I fear their houses will be painted in black gloss in memory!! xxx
You are brave!
Or very, very stupid! xxx
oh my goodness, that would never happen in my world – good on you!! xxx
I think I need to come to your world… xxx
My mother always said “Your house will still be there when your children have gone”. It’s true you can always get new carpets. But if your kids associate you with fun, trust me, they always come back.
Does it work the same for madness??! xxx
This reminds me of my childhood. My mom always had us doing crazy arts and crafts.
I like your mum! xxx
Woooo! Can’t wait to see what this is! Black gloss ! ??!! So brave!
Big, big project..HUGE! But all will be revealed..might even require filming! xxx
Ooooh! Can’t wait! X
Love all of the art hanging around and can’t wait to see the project.
