8000 Views and Summertime News

Summer has been off to a good start so far. I went to Heart o' the Hills for my counselor orientation, got to see my big brother graduate from Texas Tech, saw so much family that I hadn't seen in way too long!, painted big orders of graduation gifts--and still have more coming! (Kat that's you!), hung out with my best friends, gone country dancing one night, been on about 5 flights, finished an online class, and just had a blast during every second of it. It's been pretty busy over here, but that's the fun part!

TECH GRADUATION!

 Some of my awesome fellow counselors at the Heart! We got a night off, so we were pretty happy!

My parents (and family in the background) all excited to be at graduation

I had an order for one of my close family friends. She and her mom have been in the process of redoing her room, and asked me if I could make a few canvases with her monogram and one with her favorite Bible verse, Jeremiah 29:11. It's funny because the color scheme she picked is the one my mom and I used to redo my room this past year! Here's what they turned out like:

After I finished those, I had another order from her older brother! He asked me to make this canvas for a friend's birthday. I love making stuff for guys because they are so funny when they describe what they want, and then they are COMPLETELY amazed when you finish it. It was so rewarding seeing how impressed he was with it! Thanks, bud!! I hope the gift is a hit!

Thanks so much you guys for supporting me. It's hard to believe I have 8,000 views! My brother keeps telling me I need to look into getting sponsored, but I don't know the first thing about that. If anyone has any details on that, let me know. I think that'd be so fun! 

Psalms 71:14

As y'all know, some of my favorite colors are turquoise, light blue, and white...but I absolutely LOVE gold. Especially when paired together! This week I painted a canvas for my friend Allyson, and I got to use all of those colors together!

Hope y'all like it!

Wreck 'em, Tech!

My first Texas Tech delivery was this week! When Ana, one of my friends from high school, told me her roommate Anna was interested in buying a canvas from me I was soo excited. She wanted a Texas Tech double T for her place next year, and since I am the daughter of a Red Raider (and a very proud one I add) I knew I had to do this one perfectly! In my last post I had a picture of the canvas in action, but now I have one of the final product!

Anna sent it to me yesterday! You can't see the sides, but I wrote stuff like "Get your guns up!", "Wreck 'em, Tech",  and "Red Raiders" on the sides. Thank you Anna for sending me the picture! I love posting pictures of people with their canvases!

Cowboys

Okay, I know most of the things I post on here are rather girly, so when I was asked if could make something for a guy I was totally up for the challenge. What she wanted was a canvas with the Dallas Cowboys logo on it! Now I may be from Texas, but I am definitely more of a Texans fan than Cowboys...but I love a good challenge, so I DID IT. I think it looks pretty sweet.

I even got a picture of how it looks in his room! (I think it fits perfectly.)

3000!!

Oh my word....within a month b.krafty has gotten 1000 views (it's over 3000 now!!!)! That's incredible. I can't believe it. Thank you everyone for encouraging me to start this and to make it what is has turned in to! Today my parents came up to visit me, and they took some of the canvases I made back home so they could be delivered! I had so many in my dorm it was AWESOME. In fact, I think I had some that I hadn't even posted on here, yet.

I thought this picture was perfect for the occasion! I made it for my dorm room. It's one of my favorite quotes!

Love, Bethany

God's Love

Yesterday I finished this zebra print and hot pink canvas for Taylor, another friend of Erika's. This verse is definitely one of my favorites. I remember I wrote it down after my dad was diagnosed with skin cancer, and it really helped give me peace.

 

This canvas is for my suite mate, Dani! She saw the one I made for Priscilla and liked it, so I made her one with similar designs. I love the colors and how the letting turned out!
