Bugs and flowers on WOYWW

The rain has gone at last

but now there is the terrible humidity.

Thank heavens for airconditioners.

Seeing the blue skies again has me

in the flowers and bugs mood.

Here is a peek at my work desk

this beautiful sunny wednesday.

If you would like to see more desks

go to The Stamping Ground

and check out the other desks

around the world.

On monday I started a

ginger plant in watercolour pencil.

I am doing it in my journal

and added a little poem (by Anon)

which is perfect for the picture.

Spent half of tuesday on it to, still heaps to go.

Last night I came up with an idea

for my little polymer clay bugs,

so my experimenting
(always wanted to be a mad scientist)
started today.

I can show you my old bugs but the new

ones might explode or melt in the oven

and in the interests of safety I decided

not to share what I'm doing with you just yet.

If it doesn't work, it's back to the drawing board

and probably a new oven.

Late last year I joined in The Poppy Spree

and during the holidays I received

a beautiful present from 

Nicole at Studio Margot and

just had to share it with everyone.

 

It got a little crumpled in transit

but as soon as I get it ironed out

I will frame it and put it proudly on display.

I would like to send a huge thankyou to Nicole.

If the house is still standing and the oven
still working, I will share my
new little bugs with you next week.

Fingers crossed.
