arts and crafts with Wyatt

Mom and Dad have been busy playing with concrete and mortar.
I make myself available at every opportunity.
This is an old laundry room wash tub.
Once, we had a mosiac of colorful tiles stuck on there....but some of the tiles fell off.
So we decided to mortar basalt stone to the old wash tub.
I'm sure, many of you dogs are asking right about now, "I wonder what mortar tastes like?" Not so good...and I had to go sit in my kennel after I tried it.
So, this is the finished planter...and I helped!
We also made some more concrete leaves and finished staining them.
We have Borage and Rhubarb..
Hostas
Weeds
Hostas, Grape Leaves and Rhubarb
Happy Crafting!

  1. Wyatt, you are definitely a multi-faced individual. I hope stanzie does not suffer from an insecurities as a result of your far reaching talents!

    I tried making those concrete leaves, once. I was sooooo disappointed with my end result. I know I am feeling somewhat inferior, right now. Hence my worries about Stanzie!

  15. Whoa...I give that planter 10 barks! The leaves are cool too. Mom is waiting for her tufa planter to dry. It is her first one and she will share it with you when she's done. She lined the container with rhubarb leaves...she must have been channeling with your Bipeds!
    Keep on crafting...I like the idea of paw prints. Maybe next time!
