'Before I Kick the Bucket''




My list has been in my head for a long time and it was glad to get it out artistically on paper. I have achieved a lot in my 52 years, like marriage, raising kids, travel, interesting job, water sking, etc......

This list incorporates the things I hope I can achieve........ some are crazy, some are quirky, some are down right stupid but thats what life is all about :)

I painted the galvanised bucket, onto another art piece for my laundry so, I took a photo, and then cut it out for this project. (I will upload and show you shortly :)
I added a sexy leg with diamond embellies on the black heels, the stripey leggings just look so 'me' lol
I added a sea of flowers and then stuck a R.I.P tombstone, cross, skulls and the grim reaper :(
I scattered some of my listed'bucket list ' items through out the sea of flowers.

This is my list.......

High Tea with the Queen

Visit Niagra Falls

Travel to Turkey and explore the Roman Ruins

Finish my Family Tree

Finish my mum’s book – Melvie’s memoirs

And here is my painted washboard that I took the galvanised bucket idea from....


Here is the washboard painting I did for my laundry, I used the galvanised bucket for amy's THC18 'Bucket List' challenge. I took a pic and turned it on its side, and then cut it out.

Cheers and thanks for looking
