Thursdays Time out for Art

Posted on June 17, 2014 by Karen's Stone Soup

Retirees Paintbrushes

As I retire my old paint brushes they need a voice. They have served me well, and each one is different in its own way. These fancy ladies were created for my Artsie Fartsie friend Susan for a Christmas present, and they are displayed in her dining room on a shelf. Maybe they will inspire you to do something similar, giving your old worn out brushes a voice as well.

Thursdays Time out for Art is an online blogging group to keep us painting, creating, and sharing. It does all those things for me, check them out!

  Wow, surly I would. I’m so glad you loved them, that have a place in my heart, & people think I’m crazy for wanting each and every brush that are being tossed. Never toss anything! I now have a big drawer full of “stiff” old brushes.

Thanks for sharing this idea that honors your trusty old friends. I know I hold on to some tools way past their prime because I feel they served me well and cost me a pretty penny when I didn’t really have it spend. I have started having my picture taken with some of them before they ceremoniously “transition” in the name of reducing clutter. Other than this, I am a pretty normal person!
