…FOR THE MEMORIES!!
Well, that’s it…that’s me finished! What an experience it has been! There were certainly many days when I wondered what on earth I was doing but I am so glad I persevered and got the full 28 days posted. I have learned a lot about myself and a lot about other people. I have achieved things I didn’t think I could and created many things I would never have done had I not been spurred on by ‘Thing-a-Day. I have ‘got to grips’ with the computer…learned how to ‘post things’ on a blog and set up my own blog site at http://www.solunarsilverstudio.wordpress.com (I can guarantee that I won’t be posting things on a daily basis….perhaps a couple of times a week…but I would love to have you ‘pop in’ to see me!!) I have opened a ‘shop’ on Artfire and another on Folksy but I haven’t got much on either of them yet…give me a couple of weeks and I’ll be filling them up. Check what I am up to on my blog!! None of the above would have been done if I hadn’t stumbled upon the TaD website sometime last year and then remembered to register!!
So, I have my (sort of) finished book of treasured comments from you lovely people as my final ‘thing’. Ok, Ok – I have to admit that it has taken just a teensy-weensy little bit longer than an hour…more like half a day(!!) to get it done, but I couldn’t not do it could I?? I have fought with my ancient sewing machine to try and get a bit of ‘free embroidery’ type action going – but it wasn’t really playing the game but I am quite satisfied with what I have done. I will do a lot of hand finishing (there is like a million threads that need cutting off!!) and sew on some little beads and things later but I hope you can see the sort of idea I am aiming for.
I am very happy with the interior….and I am sure I will dip into it often over the next eleven months, whenever I feel the need to put a smile on my face.
I’m sure it is going to feel very odd tomorrow, when I realise that I don’t have to think of anything at all to create before the midnight deadline…not that I shall be idle – I have a whole house to clean and tidy…as I have neglected it terribly for a month! I’m sure my ‘dearly beloved’ will be thrilled that February has passed!!…I haven’t told him yet that TaD happens every year!!
So, goodbye all…I hope to see you all again next February…keep busy!!
