Another year has passed and boy am I glad that it can be put behind me. The first six months were exciting, filled with madly making items for the rural shows, and subsequently winning prizes. Yay for me! However, the last six months have been quite a journey, full of experiences for making me stronger. Yep well this year it is the goal to make things different. I am going to focus on cherishing things more and developing Oliver and Madge.
This is not to say that there has been no creations over the past year, just that they have been poorly documented up until now. So here is a few photo's to inspire others (also known as a brag page hee hee)

You can see how the photo's of pieces have slipped as the year progresses; home phones, issues with lighting, and resolution. I especially like the next one in which the white and cream backdrop of the white skirting board and carpet do nothing to show off the colours. we all learn from out mistakes. Not the best option for presentation, but I can't really expect much when I'm rushing to a deadline and my time management is poor. Both cosies have gone to good homes, so no other photos can be sourced.
