Prepared to do some casting yesterday. Not sure I've been as thorough as I tried to be quicker so we'll see.

Another nature walk thanks to #woodlandtrust the 🐸 fortune teller #origami has developed a voice and apparently the power to convince my #toddlersofinstagram to take a walk, we spotted everything on the list except ladybirds which we'll hunt for in the garden.

Time at the bench today. I'm still enjoying casting trying things out, pouring went wrong this time but I lucked out with the spru and was able to have a second go. I've got lots of bits at the 90% stage I really need to find the enthusiasm to finish, hallmark and photograph for the website but with low energy and no one specific I'm finishing them for it's nicer to play more with the few hours I get.

I just remembered that the clay for casting arrived before all this madness but then I realised we have no talc so now I'm sulking as I'll have to wait to play with it.

A messy #murmuration and #squirrel the mealworms attracted the starlings.

A couple of photos from casting and the weird mist

A couple of photos from casting and the weird misty view from the window that day. It's been a rough week with constant tension headaches, probably not helped by hormones and every single bit of news I've managed not to avoid so looking back on the lovely is nice.

I am not a terribly serious person, this may well be coming across by now, I like to have a bit of fun while working.
