Today’s “Just for Fun” - small creations
For those of you who are still following me, you may have noticed that I haven’t posted anything for quite a few weeks. I injured my back just days after my last post, which had me incapacitated for a few days and then whilst I was starting to feel a bit better, I had a sore eye, which actually turned out to be a fairly severe eye infection. It left me for about 10 days, barely able to keep my eyes open. I’m still not 100% over that. I’m now doing 3 different sets of drops, because it’s not progressing as quickly as hoped. On top of that, my back is still quite touchy, so I still have to be very careful in the way I do things. So, I hope you can understand why I haven’t been in the mood to do much.
Of these 3 creations, the first 2 were created before all this drama but I haven’t posted. The third one, which would normally probably take me about 4 - 5 hours to make, has taken me over 9 days, just a few minutes at a time. But I wanted to see if I could be more creative. Along with the other real life issues, late August and September have been a really crappy few weeks.
Picture 1 - small yellow flower, complete with a tiny bee and an origami crane. Approx 14cm in height.
Picture 2 - 3 miniature wire flowers with an origami butterfly. Approx 11cm in height.
Picture 3 - small wire Christmas tree, with an origami lucky star on top. Approx 14cm in height.
Here’s hoping that this is a turning point and things start looking up.
