I found a few items in the charity shop this week, and decided to utilise one of them. Before I get onto that, here is the stitch so far.
This was made with resin pieces, a piece of grungeboard and some wooden letters that were glued on and then coated in black gesso before waxes were added. You can see the symbol from the Hallows from Harry potter, so the waxes I used reflect the colours of a patronus in keeping with the theme. Finally I added some orange gems, to give it a pop of colour, and a fresh coat of chalk board paint.
Challenge wise I've been going out every day, and even been working on the garden. Next week I'm gonna try and post my log on Saturday cos I'm away after that so there will be a gap in posting.
Until next time

Progress is being made finally, but I'm slightly worried about running out of some of the colours. Anyway, back to this week's make. This is the item before I altered it.
I didn't see this straightaway but I saw a lamp in the window that I liked (and my mum spotted an identical one two shelves down so I got two) and when I turned around to show the shop assistant where they were I saw this. I knew what to do with it immediately. I then had to change what I wanted to do cos my paper clay dried out!
