Hello 2008

I have rebooted my computer, wiped everything, and now am in the process of reloading all my rss feeds. Slowly, one by one, I am enjoying rediscovering my favourite places. Always surprising how beautiful other peoples houses are, how interesting daily rituals are from the other side of the world, and always nourishing to remember how poetic some people are. Life in my little enclave is not that interesting or creative at the moment. .

For Illustration Friday…I am not quite sure about this one but hey, I was supposed to be looking after a child at the time.

Magazines

I thought I would share some fabulous images from my stack of 1950′s Home Beautiful magazines.

I have had a mixed bag of a week. Good things include recieving a copy of ‘Have Wheels, will go’ in the mail, finding the perfect sized basket for a particular purpose, and spending an afternoon under a tree with a good friend.

Making things.

This

becomes this ..

Together with these..

For this.

Today as part of my wandering I bought a lovely zine by Pip Stafford.

Evening

Some photos from a warm evening and a lovely family dinner.

Workroom..

Best not to look at the floor..

Friday

Surely a spot of reading and a fabulous election song can stop a bout of self pity.

One more sleep!
