Another part of the tea pot tower comes together.

New Project

Another tea pot tower is under construction.

A while back I came across a pile of orange plates at the oppie and knew they would look great with a bit of blue.

Sunday

Another week has flown by!

Happy

Some days the op shop fairies smile upon you and yesterday I was happy dancing as I gathered these pieces.

Blue china for a project, it may take a little while.

For a friend.

Saturday

Well another week has flown by and today it was time to play and get dirty.

Grouting is like playing with mud, great fun except I seem to be a little heavy handed with my mud and finding the china underneath is sometimes a bit like an archaeological dig.

Just needs one final polish and in to the garden my tea pot pole will go.

Art

I love public art and Victoria seems to have a lot.

This ships figure head was carved out of a dead tree in Torquay in the 70's after the original disappeared in the 1950's.

It had sailed all the way from Scotland in the late 1800's only to sink just off the coast. 

Figure heads are another favourite of mine and the Fremantle Maritime Museum has a rather lovely collection, sadly they wouldn't fit in the car!
