Mr Balloon Man

How balloon art has evolved since my days of single coloured sausage dogs and swords.

My mom thinks I should stop wasting my time and money (R20) on frivolous things intended for young children, but I really thought Tigger was very cool-so did many of the other people that I encountered between Mr balloon man and my car :)

A Pleasant Stroll

Took a walk from Constantia Neck to Kirstenbosch this morning.
It was very lovely.

I found these little creatures all sharing a plant.

If I were to guess I would say she was wishing for a flight out of here, but so far, no luck! My poor brother and sister-in-law have spent three consecutive evenings, hanging round the airport trying to get a flight home.

The whole fandamily. It has been nice to be together :)

It’s not supposed to look like this!

I am using a new resin. It is quite expensive and requires using a vacuum table to avoid having bubbles in it. (At least that’s the theory anyway). I have the vacuum table-I even used the vacuum table and followed all the instructions-yet, I still got the bubbles. It really is not supposed to look like this. Somebody help me!

This pendant is a test piece for similar earrings that need to be filled with my new, expensive resin. If I can’t sort out the bubbles, I can’t fill the earrings.

There are people all over the world making beautiful resin jewellery. Why is it that they can do it and I can not?!

Jewellery and textiles at the Kalk Bay Modern

I am part of an exhibition that is currently showing in Kalk Bay. If you are in the area, take a stroll up the steps to the Kalk Bay Modern and have a little look-see. It is a lovely gallery shop, with many pretty things and a nice view :)
