Impress Tea House and Gallery of Elmore in Victoria set a challenge. Take a new but unattractive tea cosy from their stock and transform it into a masterpiece. They said Cut it up, Add to it, what you can do to these tea cosies is only limited by your imagination. So I did.
Here is my solution - a jewellery set comprising neckpiece, brooch and earrings.
the tea cosy creations will be on display in the gallery at
100 Railway Place, Elmore, (phone 03 5432 6595)
until 30th November 2011

quiet time
It hasn't been a prductive time lately. Cameron and Lydia helped me to pack all my stuff, including most of my craft materials, in anticipation of my property being sold with settlement expected to happen in mid September. When the sale fell through, I couldn't decide whether to unpack or not. So now there are bits and pieces of "stuff" all over the place and no real results coming through. I'm also a bit flat now, and lacking motivation.
We got the planning approval for the new shed and art studio to be built at Smiths Gully once my place is sold. It will be lovely to have such a large space to set up, and leave in place. I will need a generator for power, at least until Cameron installs the solar and wind system.
