Every year I am trying to celebrate my Auburn traditions by making a craft of some sort before the season starts. Last year it was making "AU" shirts for the Brindley girls: Sis, Mom, and me.

So this year I decided to try my creative painting side and make 3 Auburn paintings (one for each of the Brindley girls). Special thanks to Mom's neighbor, Brenda, for the hardwood floor samples. I wouldn't have been able to make this project without her! And I must say they turned out pretty cute especially for free-hand painting each one. I call them Auburn Aubie Art. Take a peek...

I think Mom and Sis are currently looking for ribbon in order to add a bow. Updates to come....
The projects didn't end there. Not only did I make 3 paintings, but I managed to find a set of navy placemats and turned them into this...

(Special thanks to my husband for buying me the plates. I love him!)
Hold on, because the crafting isn't over just yet! Mom even got in the spirit of crafting for football season and made me this for our front door...
My very own Auburn wreath. I LOVE it!
Stay tuned for next year's Auburn craft. Who even knows what that will be... And maybe Sis will get in on the crafting action. eh, or not.
War Damn Eagle!
