what a difference the sun makes!

...Its great to see the sun out and on a bank holiday too!

views from Scarborough overlooking Burniston on the Cleveland way 

...the Gorse was looking splendid and almost illuminous in the midday sun...

I've been busy making creating lots of different tags all containing pebbles...the tags are all on brown buff tags but the pebbles are either drawn, painted, laser cut or embroidered. I quite like the ones I made in clay, I've also printed some too....lots!...well I have to have a variety as there are soooo many different pebbles out there, I couldn't just have them all the same! I'm slowly getting prepared for Open Studios, I'd like to be able to show a variety of different types of my work....

I've been looking for some lovely waxed string....I don't really want to use the white thread that comes with the tags...I think I'll have to go back to visit this lovely little shop in Malton....I can't believe I go through so much string!

"Key finds"

"Caught or ....snared!""

...I'm also still gathering and collating some assemblage boxes...these are working progress pieces at the moment...they seem to evolve , I love the way things just suddenly connect, breathing new life or re-newed life!

Only a short blog today as I've been so busy this weekend I need an early night!...happy reading
