Altered book play

altering a book

rust in April

I showed a container with cloth rusting away that I was trying to not be impatient and leave for 24 hrs in April, well this is it. It had already been dyed with Daffodil petals and was a bit wishy washy. I over dyed it by wrapping in around rusty hair clips. This one has got black stains on it and I wonder what the chemistry is for that happening.  However some pleasing marks on it.

Birthday

fire fire fire

Excitement not far away. Smoke pouring out of the roof of a house 6 doors away from me. I could smell it in my house that's why I looked outside....... we had 4fire engines, firemen in breathing apparatus and 2 ambulances, police.... smoke billowing out....hoses allover the path .....and still parents insisted on picking their way through it all to take their children to school..... no one was hurt and from the outside of the house you cannot tell it had happened.
