Rose Coloured Glasses

 

I was just looking through my Instagram Posts (@feelingfuzzier) for the last two months and it seems pink and red have featured in quite a bit of my food shots. Hmmm... What does this mean?? Maybe nothing, but I like to ruminate upon such things on a Wednesday morning.

This is my job now. Really.

A day at last to start making again. My fingers have been itching. It has been a few years since I have thought to make pieces of felt... just like riding a bike. Came back to me right away!

(Chocolate & Chai helped the process immensely, as they generally do.)

Chocolate Vessels

Well... terracotta, not chocolate, but they certainly look like chocolate when on the wheel!

Book Report

After being overwhelmingly inspired by the textile students work at the Renew Lace Exhibition, I spent a glorious 2 hours at Ariel Bookshop (yes Sylv, that's why I ducked away all of the sudden! A book-craving came on.)

Arial is my most favourite bookshop because of the following:

1. Great kids books

2. They sell Haigh's chocolate frogs

3. Lovely design and art books for the perusing

4. A good step to sit on when pondering over purchases

All very important criteria for a good bookshop.

One of the books I left the shop with is Oliver Jeffer's new "The Great Paper Caper". He is one of my favourite children's book authors/illustrators and I loved this book for it's quirky details, beautiful colours and a not too preachy eco-message. It is even printed on FSC paper (paper that comes from replenished forests), which makes me like the book even more.
