Sydney

Had a wonderful day in Sydney yesterday thanks to my friend Nanine!  It was VERY warm though and I was glad to get back to a very wet (YAHHHHH) and cool Melbourne.
The Opera House and Bridge never fail to take my breath away and Darling Harbour is amazing too.

The Dugongs were facinating, and I am so glad I made the effort to see them.

I love Sydney

I took a drive down to Mornington this afternoon. No trip is complere without a visit to the antique store. They have cleaned it up a bit... the corner of old books - is no more....  :-(

Here's my finds...  The bigger book is circa 1839 and that has to be the tinest dictionary in existance.  The camera was $15.00

Wednesday Wishes

You might notice a new button on the right.

This is a new site with great Kits and craft supplies. Go and visit the talented Audrey and Max at Wednesdays wishes!

When is enough enough?

I went looking for paperclay. The last lot I bought from Lesley at Little Bits. She didn't have any, but had some airdry clay that a rep had given her, so she gave it to me to try. (Thanks!!).  It was nice to work with, and came out of the molds easier, but dried rather more brittle than paperclay.  I eventually found what I was after at Melbourne artist supplies......

As the last pack had gone off unopenedd, I thought I would make both packs up in their entireity. The paperclay is white, and the airdry clay is the grey...

TOOK ME AGES!!!!
