Lesson Learned

#1 Check the weather forecast before doing outdoor crafts.

#2 Water-based yellow paint turns an awful colour of mustardy-beige when it gets rained on.

I was painting branches for a window display I am setting up tomorrow.  I got halfway done painting them yellow for Easter, the dog barked, woke up the Bug who was sleeping in her stroller and my painting was interrupted.  We went inside, the blinds were closed, I didn't know it had started to rain.  When I went to check if my branches were dry, I found them ruined.  

Plan B:: paint them brown

I hope it turns out the way I had hoped...
