pimp my fridge

I gave our fridge a little makeover this weekend.

We had this tub of coloured letter magnets which we were debating whether to add to the charity shop bag, but I spotted some gold spray paint on a trip to the local DIY shop so thought I'd give them a little uplift...







I gave them a couple of coats, and that seemed to do it. I really liked the shapes left behind on the cardboard after spraying.





Not too shabby!

a little bit of knit

Yesterday I handed in my work & it is currently being marked, with the help of a scary red examining table. Let's hope it all goes smoothly.

After handing in my work I ate 5 BIG chocolate chip cookies (I know!) and got round to doing a bit of knitting and sewing. One of my aims for the winter is to become skilled at knitting in coloured patterns and to create a whole alphabet of knitting.

Here's my first attempt:


Not perfect by any means, but a good start.
Next aim = the pub.

Also, this is my 300th post - that is a lot! Too many? I don't think so.

typography

recently i've been really interested in hand drawn type and have been playing around with drawing letterforms.
here's a little alphabet i created the other day.


i think some letters work better than others but it was just nice to have a play and a doodle.
