Hi all! It’s the first of the month, so another challenge starts over at the “Merry Little Christmas” challenge blog. It’s always an “Anything Goes” challenge as long as it’s some craft object that is Christmas themed.

I decided to paint a Christmas wreath with my watercolor paints. It’s my first painting a wreath with poinsettias and birds but I followed a tutorial on Skillshare by Irina Trzaskos and I learnt some very useful tips like how to create the circled background for the wreath, to give it more depth. I love the classes on Skillshare as it has taught me so much about painting. It also helps me start my daily painting practise again when I’m lost for inspiration or after a long break.
I created a video of my painting process and I hope it will inspire you to start painting for Christmas, or just to create something Christmas related and share it on the Merry Little Christmas challenge blog.
Thanks for stopping by and I look forward to see your wonderful creations! Don’t forget to stop by at my fellow teammies blogs to admire all they’ve created just to inspire you!
Have a great day doing something you love!
Hugs,
