What a colorful week it was in Flickr Land! I spent a lot of time looking at polymer clay work – I loooove those pie server handles in the bottom row. I’ve been thinking about new techniques for crochet hooks (it’s almost time to re-open the shop for custom work, I think…) And that first image? It makes me want to put on red nail polish and take a bunch of self-timer pictures of my hands holding stuff. I suppose I am weird, but it seems like such fun!
If you’re curious about any of these photos, click on the mosaic. It will take you to Flickr where you can link to the individual images.
