The Blues

Not much too report today, except that we had a lovely creative writing session this morning (only slighty spoilt by my obnoxious student saying, what the f*** and other generally negative comments).

But, I arrived home to another TM bargain. I have to put a photo on, even though it doesn't fit into the colour challenge. It is a really cool jewellery box that I won for $10. The lid lifts up and the bottom door opens. I think it should house a fair bit of my jewellery!


Another TM bargain for only $7.50 were these cool Swimming With Sharks shoes. I have a purple pair and had to have these when I saw them.



My trusty jewellery cleaning cloth that I bought in Galway over 4 years ago and it still works brilliantly.



A gorgeous lapis lazuli ring that the cleaning cloth helps to keep in tip top shape.



A weird blue corner of the garden - I should clean up the paint pot and do something pretty with the blue glass pot. Slack of me.



A living light candle which smells absolutely delicious.....in the warmer months when the sun shines through the window of my lounge, it hits the candle and makes the room smell wonderful. I don't use candles often enough and I think I could more often - for the yummy smells and cosy atmosphere - as well as to save electricity.



This is a painting that is not a painting. It is printed onto canvas using a process called glicee. You can't really tell it isn't a painting until you are up close. I love it because it is of New Zealand things.



And a picture of MLB's son - all in blue :-)


The weekend tomorrow - yay!!!
