nature junk

Today I've wanted to send my ACEO
to my Collage A Day trade partner.
As I was walking to the post office,
I've found some nature junks,
which are treasure troves for me.



But of course, I've also seen real junks.
Some are really interesting.
A blue toy locomotive e.g., which
layed almost fully buried on the road.
Too bad I didn't have the camera with me.
I should take a photo of this on Monday,
since I have to go there once more.
The post office closed earlier today *grr*
Anyway I've made this collage
out of some troves - nature junk.

first berries

A friend of mine has told me,
that I should try to make something else
rather than necklaces. It's because
she herself doesn't wear necklaces,
but brooches or rings (even on her toe! :-)).
So, I thought, I'd start with brooches.
After some experiments (and delay since
I didn't found my pin backs in my chaos),
I've listed the first two First Berries.

I've photograph them on my new
paper backgrounds. I've bought
seven designs - just couldn't resist.
But now I can play a bit more with DoF
(if I want to) and they'd be a great help ^_^
