Mattes

I edited (somewhat poorly, at first, anyway) and then made some mattes for displaying paintings and other artwork in our home today. After I got home, I realized how I would have been able to make the edited ones much better… which was slightly annoying to discover after the fact (haha), but which might prove useful still.

My notecard for making the mattes – it was quite fun, once I’d gotten the hang of the cutter!

I still have to order some archival tape to put them into the frames, anyway, so I can check tomorrow after school about how the mattes actually fit and if I can do the better way of editing on the poorly done ones still. I also potentially can just put an exacto knife to them. So, I can try that tomorrow, too. That might be perfectly successful, giving me no need to bring them back to school. But we shall see. 😛

I’m glad I did them and I feel a great sense of accomplishment at having done them all, and on my own.

Thank you, God, for this successfully completed task and its associated positive brain chemicals. Thank you. Amen.
