So, it was part of my New Year's Resolution to write a proper blog, and to be dedicated to it. I figure it will help with my dedication issues to projects (see my "about" text). And what will I blog about? Everything, you lucky things. I get bored so very easily, like a twitchy meerkat, so I have to have variety to keep me interested. And variety I shall create. A smidgeon of radiology, a soupçon of arts-and-crafts, a scintilla of literature, a speck of current affairs, all with a thread of whimsy. As well as anything else that takes my fancy.
That should keep me busy, right?
He got quite a reaction on facebook, so much so that I've since made a robin as a birthday present for a friend (she's already received it so it's OK to post here) and am in the process of making a pony (pics coming soon)! Maybe I'll just start my own little menagerie of woolly animals and surround myself with cuteness?
So, I recently got into making friendship bracelets. I like to think I've graduated beyond the chevron I used to make and wear with pride at primary school, thanks to Pinterest and all the free friendship bracelet patterns I've found on there. But I've discovered a level beyond that, a technique called "Kumihimo". Such beautiful ropes of colour and, should you be so adventurous, sparkly beads. I can't wait to give this a go. Now I just have to find the boards used to make it, although, being a DIYer it would be truly DIY if I made it myself surely. Once I've gathered the necessary tools (and made my mother despair at me buying even more crafts supplies) updates shall be forthcoming.
