Crafty Monday
I've been lucky with my new job that I joined a few weeks before Easter and got two mandatory holidays as a result....I've also been lucky that I get both of the May bank holidays as well.
Today was the first of those May bank holiday in Scotland today and I had the day off work.
I didn't want to waste the day being lazy but didn't fancy navigating my way around tons of other people spending their day off in busy places either.
Instead, James and I headed to a pottery and ceramics workshop a little bit out of the way and spent the afternoon painting.
As you can see from the pictures, James is far more artistically gifted than I - his wizard is amazing.
I have literally zero artistic flair or talent for anything remotely crafty - give me a post-it note and I can fold it into a swan, crane, bat or cat but anything beyond that and I'm hopeless so I'm really happy that my humpty dumpty turned out alright!
There was something really therapeutic about spending the afternoon painting and paying attention to all the little details in the ornaments and turning them into something with a little bit of character.
It was an activity that ended up being relaxing and fun.
Today's Footwear
These are not shoes.....they are quite clearly socks.
But they are awesome....and glittery....and Powerpuff themed.
I felt the need to share!
