forest textures...


I took some molding compound with me when we went for a walk in the forest the other day. Mostly wood/bark textures, along with one pine-cone & a little plant (probably a weed).

There has been a lot of rain around here recently (there were even some roads closed in the forest) & the dampness meant the compound dried much slower than usual - I lost one entirely, but the others turned out pretty well.


+ one just because it was so lovely out in the forest

recently...


...the spring weather has sprung early - lots of blossoms & sunshine, although we'll be having some cold weather again soon-ish...

...completed week 3 of my month of mornings - I had been hoping for a frosty or foggy morning to make things 'wintry', but no such luck...

...we did have a frosty morning the week after, so of course I took a few photos (we've had a very wet, fairly mild winter this year)...


...we went for a wet walk in the Bundaleer Forest - part 1 | part 2...

...we're heading to Brisbane in October for my cousin's wedding, so we have been dreaming up things to do while we are there, trying to figure out our packing & Mum is making me a dress (she has already finished Kathryn's & Amy is getting one too - we're very lucky)...

...I've really enjoyed taking part in the August Break 2013...


...baked Date Flapjacks the other day, then baked them again - with chopped dried fruit instead of the date layer...

...spent some time in the sun taking a teleidoscope photo...

...been window shopping - loving this tee & this one too...there are far too many pretty clothes on the internet.
