Hello I am very late today in joining you all. Last week I didn't play because my Dita died (so sad sniff) but I said I wouldn't talk about this earlier this week as it's too depressing. So on to the wonderful WOYWW with the lovely Julia. I have been playing with my gel again and UV light, some beads and old tea spoons. You may also notice my new toy arrived today oh goodie (this is a very early B'day gift from hubby as it's not until July and I can have it now so cool ) my melt pot!
Here is a close up of the gel I use (I only mention this as quite a few asked about this when I made my bird shrine) Here It sets like glass. Only it's now so sunny here I have turned off the UV and put them out side. On the left you can see an oval pendant with beads hanging. from it. It is now a magnet! (steampunk style!) this will be in a later post!
I am also keeping my promise and showing you another draw, this has so many bits in it from scrabble tiles, moulds to butterflys to watch parts etc so much cool stuff in here enlarge pictures to have a closer look if you like. I am going to try and get round a few desks now but the sun and the melt post along with a very long sewing list is also clamoring for my attention ha ha. I also have another new follower yay! and she is lovely as all of you are. Thank you for your continued support and wonderful bloggy comments. Love Dawn xx
What fab stash you have to show and tell today.

Hi Dawn, firstly am so sorry for your loss. Our pets are so special to us, its so hard to say goodbye. Have had to do the same myself, so am thinking of you hun.
ReplyDeleteYour desk is fab today, love all of the bits and bobs.
Take care and sending you big hugs, Heidi xx

This looks very messy and interesting Hugs Pam x
ReplyDeleteOoo look really fascinating, makes me want to come and play, I've never seen altered spoons before!
ReplyDeleteSorry about Dita, I'm glad you are finding solace in the crafting, looks like some beautiful makes are developing. Kim
ReplyDeleteThat spoon has me intrigued. And I'm so glad you got your melting pot. You asked about me having two. Here's the story. A gal was selling them and would NOT sell them individually. I know I paid more than I needed to, but she was sick, needed the money and would only sell everything as a complete lot. So that's why I have two. However, it's really nice to have two colors going at once.
ReplyDeleteFabulous artwork, I want a melt pot too you lucky girl and Happy Birthday too for July.
ReplyDeleteBig hugs for Dita, we have a rescue dog too.
xx
Lots of interesting stuff, that I wouldn't really know what to do with!
ReplyDeleteWell done you!
Chrissie
Oh my - you have the sort of stash that makes me wanna rummage and makes me very scared at the same time! I love the idea of the bowl of the spoon for the pendant, how clever...will follow with interest! Glad you're up to taking part this week, and of course, very sad for you - it's really hard. You gave her a wonderful few years, remember that.
ReplyDeletehi hun so much to see on your desk looks so productive,too hugs cheryl xxxxxxxxx
ReplyDeletelove your workspace dearie. wish i could come play. take good care. since art is good for the heart i know you'll heal.
ReplyDeleteI'm so sorry to hear about Dita, big hugs winging their way to you.
ReplyDeleteLovely to see you creating, it's good for your soul Margaret
I have no idea on melt pots, only what I see on TV and they aren't too good at showing you stuff, because once they sell out they stop talking and showing! so?? you melt spoons?? ok..yes that's not right, but you do have quite a few...
