beehive ART BOXes


My friend Kate stopped by the studio to pick up a few of our new beehive ART BOXes.  While she was in, I asked her to take a few pics of the contents of the kits. 
She has an incredible eye.. I love how she gets into the grit of the teeniest detail.
 She has taken pics of us at beehive over the years and also takes 
incredible family and children portraits.  
Much more about Kate here kerphotography.com















 

    You can order your beehive ART box  to pick up at the studio OR we can ship to you.

turmeric dye



I've had my eye in this turmeric dye for quite some time. Luckily 
 I came across great inspiration from Ellie Beck at petalplum
If you're itching about natural dyes..
 she is the queen to go to. 
Her blog is chock full of natural goodness and beauty. 
and her  instagram is a daily treat. Thank you Ellie ! 

 I love love this rich yellow color  
and the technique is simple, clean and fun.

fish prints
















   summer ART 2015 fish prints

I love how the kids used the sponges to create coral, water and seaweed.
We used only gold and/or silver paint for the fish.

we're bananas over beehive portraits. 

black + white photographs 
with colored pencils and teeny shells are just right.

spin shells

          

                                         








SPIN art is always a HUGE hit at beehive and 
spinning these shells was especially fun! 

I glued the shells onto a matt board base prior to spinning.  
After the spin paint has dried you can color and paint the base. 

yay!
