Got a start...

and even though it was 27 degrees I realized I had to do my photography outside. There just wasn't a good spot inside. It was either wrong color walls or too many windows. So I picked a spot, donned my parka and fingerless gloves, covered my cast and dragged everything outside.

Things may look balmy, but that grass was crunching under my feet and beyond that is ice, not water. But, the sun was sort of shining so life was good.
Dead and neglected...for now

I did a couple of photos for my Etsy shop http://ecothreadscouture.etsy.com/. Looking at them again, I see that they are a little tilted, something I neglected to check. Actually, my hands got so cold that I had to run them under barely lukewarm water. Hey, where is the glamour?

Let's see a couple of these slightly tilted photos and maybe I can get used to them until it warms up outside.

Thanks for stopping by and there will be more soon.   Hopefully, the cast may come off today and then hello thrift stores.

Still working on ...

setting up a background suitable for my photographs. Had to enlist hubby's help. By the way, we did this outside and the minute we started there came the snow, however briefly. So in 33 degree weather I started photographing.

Long story short, that background won't work. Of course, I discovered that after taking all the photos so I'm back to square one. Groan. Still can't drive because of the cast which I'm sure is the size of Rhode Island. I guess Home Depot will have to wait a few days.

Sorry about no photos, is there anything more boring than a blog minus pics?
