Photography 134

I'm taking a photography class and I love it! I'm not nearly as good as Molly but here are a few shots that I like.

 BYU Baseball Stadium

 My guest bedroom. Come stay with me! 

 My take on water

 ROses! 

 Chase. 

 This shot and the following are a series about Chase's grandpa Boyd. He was really fun to take pictures with, I gave him ice cream and he was happy as a clam. Boyd is also an amazing painter and i wanted to capture shots of his studio.

DRABULOUS TO FABULOUS!

BEFORE

LET'S FACE IT. WE ALL HAVE A LONELY-LITTLE-WINDOW IN OUR HOUSES THAT COULD USE SOME HELP. GOOD NEWS FOR YOU! I'VE COME UP WITH AN AMAZING SOLUTION THAT EVEN YOU CAN DO. TWO WORDS CORNICE-BOX. THEY LOOK EXPENSIVE/DESIGNER AND COST A FRACTION OF WHAT YOU WOULD PAY TO HAVE THEM MADE...SERIOUSLY! 

ALL IT TAKES IS SOME SIMPLE MEASURING, A SEWING MACHINE, HOT-GLUE-GUN, SCREWS, L-BRACKETS, TRIM, CORDING (OPTIONAL), FOAM PADDING, 1 CURTAIN ROD, 1X96X12" WOOD PIECE, FABRIC DRAPE PANELS, FABRIC TO COVER CORNICE-BOX AND A FEW HOURS. 



AFTER


OK SO IF YOU WANT TO KNOW HOW TO MAKE THESE OR SOMETHING SIMILAR, SEND ME A MESSAGE FOR A TUTORIAL OR YOU CAN FIND ONE ONLINE AT: http://www.thenateshow.com

Snow Painting

I spent some time in Midway a few weekends ago and I was inspired by all of the huge snow drifts up there. I decided I wanted to spray paint a mural on them. I didn't end up doing an entire mural, but I got down a moose. 

ps. IT looks like a 5 year old did it because spray paint is hard to control!

My Dream Houses.

My dream is to have a house similar to these two. I found these homes in Midway and Heber Utah. After I saw these houses it got me thinking about restoring a house someday. So I did a little research and there are grants and loans available to people who want to restore their homes to their proper historical period. If you are interested go to http://www.utahheritagefoundation.org/preservation-resources/financial-resources




I think within 10 years I would like to acquire a home similar to one of these!!
