Got over it

I`ve finally made some melted record bowls !

It`s taken me a long time to make these as I have an irrational fear of anything hot, especially ovens ! I struggle cooking with it never mind melting plastic in it. I must have looked like a murder scene investigator with all my protective clothing when I was getting them out of there ! lol

But, I`m very proud of them :D
I`m going to make some smaller ones using 7"s, well, once I've bought them...I think a trip to the car-boot may be in order ! :D

Finally some crafting !

Ok, so even I have to admit I`ve been craft deficient this last week or so. It`s coming to up to my 4 month anniversary of being unemployed and I just havent been feeling the love ;(

But....I`ve been meaning to make some t-shirt yarn for a while and I finally got around to hacking up my old t-shirts from when I was a UK size 22 ! So plenty of material ! lol It was quite theraputic really :)

Anyhoo, I decided they`d work really well as brooches (plus I`d get about 8 out of each t-shirt) so thats what I did. I tried chopping the yarn different ways and it came out totally different on the 2 t's. Which is nice :)






Hopefully I`ll get them listed on ETSY soon, got a million and 5 things to do first tho ;( Who said unemployed people are lazy !? I`m more knackered now than I was when I was working !
