Circles Of Rain: April 2015
http://circles-of-rain.blogspot.com/2015_04_01_archive.html
Monday, 27 April 2015. This used up three whole hot glue sticks. I didn't have time to take photos but took a few on my phone to play around with. I would not necessarily do this much to them for etsy but I like the historical monument feel that has been given to small plastic animals. Next weekend I will take photos for this shop and for the felt and crochet shop. Then hopefully the following weekend I will open all three. Saturday, 25 April 2015. Mohair and a New Place to Visit. I found a lot ( a lot!

Circles Of Rain: February 2015
http://circles-of-rain.blogspot.com/2015_02_01_archive.html
Tuesday, 24 February 2015. A Weekend in the Country. We went to stay with our friend Phil in Northumberland this weekend. He took us to as many beautiful places as it was possible to fit in, fed us delicious food and took us to the pub where we met a very interesting collection of local people. Below are some of the places we saw. This is part of the woods he works in. We had just climbed up a very steep bank, (I nearly didn't manage it! And the sun came out, shining through the snow and trees. Next we w...

Circles Of Rain: January 2015
http://circles-of-rain.blogspot.com/2015_01_01_archive.html
Friday, 23 January 2015. When I was taking photos he said he liked the signs too. I wonder what our neighbour will do with them. I might ask if I can have the piece from the front corner-the fairly small piece. It would be a nice souvenir of our street (if and when we ever leave! If I was them, I would preserve it somehow as a quirky feature on the front of the house that the shop will become. On this part of the sign you can see another layer underneath with gold lettering. Lovely! Tuesday is now a regu...

Circles Of Rain: Friday Photos
http://circles-of-rain.blogspot.com/2015/05/friday-photos.html
Saturday, 9 May 2015. First thing in the morning and last thing in the afternoon. To cheer up a day when the Conservatives got in for another five years. It has been an interesting election, especially with what has happened in Scotland. Labour trounced, SNP in, almost like independence in another way. Irises in the little park I walk through just before getting to school. I like the colour of the graffiti in the second one as it compliments the colour of the flowers. A last cuddle before they go. Loving...

Circles Of Rain: July 2014
http://circles-of-rain.blogspot.com/2014_07_01_archive.html
Saturday, 26 July 2014. Die Cutting, Flowers and Freedom! I love die cutting! I have about ten different dies, which I have chosen carefully for potential. I have birds, butterflies, shapes, a cat and dog and a typewriter. I spent quite some time yesterday cutting out birds in lots of different papers. You can use the left over shape as a stencil too so two for one! The butterfly below is from a coke can and looked so pretty on the moth book it deserved a photo. Shadows of butterflies and a dragonfly.

Saturday, 25 October 2014. A Fanciful Twist Halloween Party 2014. The Tale of the Dancing Witch. On the occasion of A Fanciful Twist's Halloween Party 2014. I recently visited the magical Mouse Mansion. It is where she loves to knit, dance, and make delicious spells using her silver cauldron, spices and magical powders. Please come in and enjoy some Halloween soup, full of bats and spiders, ghosts, pumpkins, and tiny green witches. After this the Dancing Witch invites you to enjoy a spell making class.

Circles Of Rain: September 2014
http://circles-of-rain.blogspot.com/2014_09_01_archive.html
Tuesday, 30 September 2014. We went to Amsterdam at the weekend to meet Linda Sue and Stella. It was brilliant! We went on Friday-ha ha no work! We did quite a lot and I took loads of photos as usual. It is such a lovely place. So different from any other European city I have been to. There is so much to look at. It is quirky and relaxed and I want to go back soon. I am not going to waffle on but just post photos, lots and lots of them. Today-colourful photos. This last photo is particularly colourful!

Circles Of Rain: Shrink Plastic and Green
http://circles-of-rain.blogspot.com/2015/05/shrink-plastic-and-green.html
Sunday, 17 May 2015. Shrink Plastic and Green. Something made me think of shrink plastic last week and so I ordered some from ebay. I have not used it before although I do remember shrinking crisp packets when I was a child. It was a craze for a while. I love this stuff! The green is the garden. It is green. with pretty purples and blues in amongst it. It is a complete mess really but I like how it looks. I am waiting for the builders to finish out the back before I have a tidy. 18 May 2015 at 06:28.

Monday, 30 March 2015. How I Spent my Holidays. At this moment I have a cat's tail in my face and am managing to touch type. Cassie wants something! I suppose 'curiosity'is one word for what is happening to this man. Saturday, 28 March 2015. I have been using photoshop again after a long time not really using it. I coloured this wide eyed person. No pastel mess. No paper. Just a mouse and a programme. So clever! Skies, Silhouettes, Buildings and Flowers. Fair on Weaver's Fields in Bethnal Green. I was pl...

Circles Of Rain: May 2015
http://circles-of-rain.blogspot.com/2015_05_01_archive.html
Sunday, 31 May 2015. I have been doing lots of tidying and sorting recently. Today I did my wardrobe. A disaster area of epic proportions, which is now a place where I can see clothes I actually wear, and get them out. Three big bags of stuff going to the charity shop, and things I don't currently need but want to keep are shrunk wrapped. Anyway, when tidying bookshelves recently, I found this book. I used the left over plaster to spread onto cardboard to make painting surfaces. I have attempted the ...
