Dreich Day

A very mizzly day with sleet and much dampness. Here is my handsome tree looking rather dramatic in the dreichness! No added colour!!!

Attended a meeting today, the mood of which matched the weather!! However, met with some lively characters and made me feel thankful that I have wonderful colleagues close. We all travelled together to and from the meeting and agreed to be glad of each other!

Finished the birthday veylas last night and wrapped them - but I will blip them on my niece's hands. Much better. I'm delighted with them.

Am starting on my sister's 50th birthday gift tonight. Her favourite shell is a cowrie and we have spent many a family holiday in search of these lovely wee shells. I managed to find 50+ cowries at Shell Bay near Elie last summer (horrid shale and seaweed "beach" - but huge cowrie crops!!) Am going to create something in a 3D picture frame out of 50 cowries and a sparkly blue felt background!
