Oh Well!

I knew I'd missed a few days but I didn't realise just how many until I checked in this morning. I've been poorly, frantic about my 1st craft fair then started a new job and did my 2nd craft fair - all in the last 3 weeks. I'm also fairly strung out in general so having missed so much of my 365 project, I think I'll give myself a break and restart early in the new year when things have settled down again.

Here's a trial set up for my craft fair stall, if you're interested.
I apologise to anyone who has been following my progress and I hope you'll check in occasionally to see if I've started again. Thanks for your comments and well wishes, they have been greatly appreciated.

Day 65 - Easel


I've managed to borrow an easel for part of my craft fair table display :) Looks good with one of my framed prints on it. Please ignore the 70's tiled coffee table - it's usually covered with junk so I never notice it! LOL

Day 64 - Dunnock a.k.a small brown birdie

I've been seeing this little brown bird at the end of my garden for a couple of weeks now and just assumed it was a wren. Finally caught it on camera and am reliably informed by hubby that it is a dunnock - also called a hedge sparrow. Not a great picture - long lens through glass but the only one anywhere near to being in focus - I'm obviously too shaky for a long lens at 7.30am!

Day 63 - Bags Galore!


Not sure if I've mentioned that I'm doing my first craft fair soon - well, I am and I realised I would need some bags. Hubby said 'I know a guy' and as his prices were very reasonable, I went for them. Unfortunately, I didn't quite think it through properly - 3 sizes, OK, minimum order 1000 bags! not so OK but still cheaper than buying smaller quantities elsewhere. End result - 2500 bags in my living room! LOL

Day 62 - Autumn Gold

Early-ish morning sun shining through the few remaining leaves.

Day 61 - Weird, Pretty Thing

This one didn't come out of the box but my Sis-in-law was going to throw it away so I grabbed it in case it would work well as a macro. Not sure it's a great photo but I like the colours :)

Day 60 - Wasp Nest


Having been out for lunch today, it was a bit of a last minute rush to shoot something so I headed for my box. What box is that? Well, it was supposed to be a prop box but it's rapidly turning into the 'weird things to photograph one day' box! So here is todays' weird thing - a fairly mucky old bit of wasp nest. Great patterns and so regular too - isn't nature amazing?
