This is the second time I've written this blog post today. I had started off with stating that this weekend has been less than productive. But weirdly writing the first blog post attempt seemingly spurred me on. Perhaps I'll try that next time I feel like I've done nothing with my time.
So what have I done....
The image above shows that I've attempted making things. It's an attempt pretty, but not quite right. It doesn't fit flush to the brooch fitting and whilst I was trying to be clever and time saving by using self cover buttons to give the dome effect and to make it easier to adhere to the brooch back, it's a bit gappy around the edge (can't really see it in the above photo). So I chucked it to one side, attempted to write a blog post, then had a sudden thought. Went back to it and found a better way to do it. Wrote my making knots, doodled the two designs...and well that's that project on its way.
Re-took some photographs of products, realising that some of the pocket mirrors weren't listed in the Etsy store. Rectified that, and if your one of those that likes to get the Christmas shopping done early, then they make a nifty little stocking filler...*hint*.
Played around with more photographs, in my attempt to take sharper photographs of 'Tea Solves Everything' and 'Life is a Big Puddle Jump In'. So that I can progress the idea of turning them into post or greeting cards. I was asking over on Facebook
Oh, and I finished the second sample and instructions for Crafty Magazine yesterday....and whizzed up a batch of jam tarts.
So really, in conclusion I was perhaps more productive than I thought. Which also makes me realise that I need to relax a little more, and be less harsh on myself. After all I do fit this round working full-time.
Ending the night on a bit of a ponder.
