I've been bustling busy making some New Year's wishes cards out of my home made photos (yes, I am aware that I'm not a fabulous photographer like this lovely lady) and the pages of a postcard album from around the early 1900's. I sort of liked the effect and the mix of modern glossy photo paper with worn out cardboard. Still have to fix extra card onto the back to make it both writable and stable...
Then I made these New Year's wish sticks from pieces of driftwood. There's something I love about the feel of driftwood. They still have to be bundled into little groups and tied up with pretty pieces of string. That will be for some time after midnight tonight by the look of things!
My little Christmas angels, made from old pegs are still waiting for faces, text and wings...
..that'll be for after dinner I think - if I can get the messmonsters into bed in time. I'll take photos when they're finished. It'll be like a tutorial in two parts.
At least the new planks are all finished and signed,
must take photos of those tomorrow on my stand.
All I need is to put a hood on my Mac
and to get myself a pair of these
and I'll fly through it all ...
As the French say, " Pfff, Fingueur in ze nose!"
And they DO say that!
My first Christmas market since I officially stopped 'patine.'
Wish me luck...
