Polka Dot Cottage: A Month of Hands

A Month of Hands

Posted July 1st, 2009 by Lisa

A Month of Hands: 1/31 :: Making Breakfast

I’m eager to get into a new daily photography project, and here it is:  A Month of Hands.  Won’t you join me?

Our hands are always busy, always making art, preparing meals, helping children, keeping journals, driving vehicles, holding doors open, tying shoelaces, applying nail polish, picking berries… all of those things and many, many more.

I hope you’ll join the flickr group, and spend the next 31 days with me, documenting the work of your hands.  And please spread the word if you like – how wonderful it will be to see how women everywhere use their hands in nurturing, creative, and utilitarian ways!
