So much to Learn

So much to learn, so much to do, so little time.

This was a lesson.


Cute eh... bird feeders.. everything glued with a glue that would probably harm me if I gave it a chance.  Hang it by the cup handle, birdie sits on the spoon and has breakfast.


Problem ... big problem... I'm not an engineer... 
I just stuck the cup on the plate and the angle of the dangle is such that the seed would fall off.

Back to the drawing board with that one.

It has been a long time coming

I haven't posted on my blog for over three years but today is the day.

I will be opening a shop space on May 1 and I have been busy busy.  I thought stock would be my main focus but so far display, business cards, pricing, supplies, accountant etc. have me running.

Here is a sneak peak.

Great frame find for $1.50

This bookcase was orange in the 70's

Screen

My old ladder

A great chair I found on the side of the road

I'm calling that pattern seaweed

Love this tree

Been using this for 50 years

Faithful old cupboard

Back to it.

Whale Watch

Today I went on a whale watch cruise with some work mates.

I was a bit slow with the camera ... here is the whale butt shot.
and a mother and baby dolphin.

What a lovely day we had.

Guerrilla Knitting

The "Graffiti" of the knitting world

There has been an arts festival in my neck of the woods over the past two weeks.

Today I went to have a squiz and found this "knitted" tree.

It's kinda quirky and this stick insect has already claimed it as his home.


Cool huh
