We have pretty much finished the chores we set ourselves to do this trip - the painting, the pointing and the planting - so we have been able to grab few moments here and there to think about, and make, some things artistic.
Whilst this photo looks like I have a fur hat on; it is actually the reflection of the hay bale in the field beside us! It took me a while to work out what was going on.
This is me hard at work in my workshop. Also known as the garden shed behind the cottage.

When next we are here, we are planning another pop up art show and I thought to myself I should get down and start making some jewellery. It seemed like if I could grab an hour here, and maybe an hour there, I could cut some silver wire and solder some forms.
Nothing too fine or too tricky or too elegant; just get down and get the basics underway. I think am snipping solder here, ready to make a few more pebble forms. It was about 6 degrees outside with a sharpish wind, so I am pretty rugged up. My hands really felt it tho!
It was a good productive hour!
All these forms need to be cleaned, and to have the lumps and bumps filed down, but I am well on the way to having a bunch of pebble forms to play with to make some new jewellery.
And a few photos from around the cottage. Out the bedroom window as we headed to bed one night.
As we round the corners to home...
