I had mine 4yrs ago and I'm so glad I did.<br /><br />I have to say though that I was only in hospital for three days and was doped up for most of the time and didn't feel like doing much of anything for a couple of weeks...the painkillers I was sent home with meant for most of the time all I wanted to do was sleep.<br /><br />If you do want to take something with you though the journalling IS a good idea as it will be easy to go back to :D<br /><br />Good luck honey... hope everything goes swimmingly.<br />hugs<br />Chris xxChrishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10466807787737426201noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7039649077026683052.post-48602288977857570552011-06-08T21:36:15.029+01:002011-06-08T21:36:15.029+01:00Hello Dawn

I had a hystorectomy many years ago now & was not in hospital for very long. If my memory serves me correctly I was home after only one day. But if you are going to be in there longer then I sugest taking your journal, crayons & water brush. Plus a graphite pencil. Good luck & hope you have a speedy recovery.<br /><br />Hugs Your Friend Elizabeth xxElizabethannehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08197149099148402202noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7039649077026683052.post-35992219774362482122011-06-08T17:23:57.253+01:002011-06-08T17:23:57.253+01:00Sorry to hear about your coming op, if it helps af...Sorry to hear about your coming op, if it helps after mine I was so much better I never saw a doctor for over 4 years! Here's hoping it does as much for you. If it helps i took decoupage and cross stitch in with me, the nurses were a bit surprised that I had my own scalpel with me LOL.

Those magnet...Sorry to read you must have surgery. Those magnets are really adorable. I'm sure they will sell well and quickly.<br /><br />To answer your question, first, do not use used coffee grounds. The grounds are no longer strong enough. I suggest either INSTANT coffee or tea. Start by shaking some crystals onto the wet fabric, then allow the crystals to spread on the fabric. Cover the fabric for about a day, then wring out and line dry. Do NOT rinse.<br /><br />In the event you want to use regular coffee, make sure it is extra strong. Heat in the microwave or coffee pot, then place your wet fabric in the container. After a day, remove fabric from the container, wring out, then line dry. DO NOT RINSE. When you rinse, you are removing all the color you have taken time to add. The problem with tea and coffee is, there is no mordant, or way/product for you to set the fabric. Remember, this fabric can never be washed and coffee/tea should be used only for dyeing fabric or ribbon that will be used in craft projects.Bleubeard and Elizabethhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10149710375520733752noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7039649077026683052.post-15663388755227915412011-06-08T08:54:06.244+01:002011-06-08T08:54:06.244+01:00hi hun hope the operation goes well sweetie,def,ta...hi hun hope the operation goes well sweetie,def,take your journal glue stick,pens,or crayons,then you can journal when you feel like it,maybe write about your experience after the op. note book too that way you get any ideas that pop into your head,you can jot them down,hugs cheryl x<br />oh love the embellishments too xxxxxxxxcherylhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14313964352210605492noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7039649077026683052.post-49838226719800742752011-06-08T08:41:39.650+01:002011-06-08T08:41:39.650+01:00Hope your operation goes well and you recover quic...Hope your operation goes well and you recover quickly.

I ...Wishing you all the best & a fast recovery!<br />I myself, about 4 years ago, had to have a hysterectomy. I recommend an art journal, watercolor crayons, ink pens, markers, scissors, and a glue stick.<br />Family & friends usually bring magazines to the hospital for you to read. After I was finished with them, I created collages from my journals & made ATC cards.<br />Sending loads of *hugs* your way. :]aprilmariecole.blogspot.comhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10863444336112542439noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7039649077026683052.post-83955626389863946662011-06-08T01:04:34.660+01:002011-06-08T01:04:34.660+01:00Hi Dawn, wishing you well in your surgery.

If you like crocheting you could make little flowers for your artwork just use white thread and change the colours when you use them with your inks or mists.Chris Arlingtonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01720656339448063752noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7039649077026683052.post-62594950539057577492011-06-08T00:51:55.161+01:002011-06-08T00:51:55.161+01:00Your little magnets are so cute Dawn.
Am sorry to ...Your little magnets are so cute Dawn.<br />Am sorry to hear about the 'op, but if it sorts you out its all for the best.<br />Definitely take your Art Journal with you. Caran D'Ache watercolour crayons are great along with Aqua Flow brushes, both take up little room and are lightweight.
