The dark photos truly illustrate how constant the night is in my apartment in the winter. It’s permanently 7 o’clock in the […]
I find stocking stuffers challenging. Chocolates are a good default, but it’s nice to have some personal little lovelies. This year I made some carol magnets from a selection of old and beautiful sheet music.
The process is so very simple. It was a simple matter of cropping the images, printing them out (on a laser […]
I hope that everyone had a wonderful holiday season. Mine was busy and hectic, but absolutely wonderful. I have a whole bunch of projects that I’m looking forward to sharing with you. For today, here is a glimpse of some of the gift wrapping that I did.
