A Quick Word From Yours Truly


Hi, welcome to PJ's blog.

If you've checked out the "About Me" bit you'll see I'm a keen amateur photographer who enjoys all things digital. I mostly like photographing plants and landscapes as they are easy targets ;-) I used to work in Software which sounds more exciting than it is but am now officially a Snr. Project Planner having changed jobs after almost 25yrs in Software. I sometimes wish I could work in photography but that would probably become boring if I did it day in and day out. I used to sponsor a wolf called Luna until she sadly passed away, and love all things "wolfy". Anyhow enjoy the blog and hopefully I'll manage to keep it up to date with what I've been doing and my favourite things!

Halloween Wreath

 

Chuffed with my Halloween Wreath from The Works which Julia persuaded me to buy on our latest shopping trip. I'm not a one for arty crafty stuff, I leave that to her, but I thought why not and for £3 it wasn't going to break the bank!

Set up my gardening table in the shade of the garage doorway on a stupidly hot Saturday and sat painting all the requisite pieces, having to dig back into the memory banks to remember how to mix various colours from the base paints they gave you.

After lunch I glued everything onto the ring, note that sadly they didn't supply glue which seems like an oversight, but I had some wood glue in the kitchen cupboard so no problemo for me.

And here's the final result - pretty chuffed with it, not least because everything stayed glued on after I picked it up! Gave it a couple of coats of clear acrylic and it's ready for the Halloween porch dressing.
