52Photos//Wrinkles
Hi Friends!
This week’s 52Photos challenge was kind of a toughy: wrinkles. The first thing I thought of was my laugh lines, and while I am actually kind of proud of having acquired so many fine laugh lines over the years, I wasn’t sure I would be able to capture them in all their glory the way I wanted. So then my mind naturally went to the kind of wrinkles that I have to attack with an iron. Have I ever mentioned how much I like ironing? I love that I can take something that looks bad and straighten it out almost immediately. I get the same feeling with vacuuming: instant gratification. Now if only emptying the dishwasher and scrubbing toilets made me feel that way…
Anyway, the picture above is of a stack of vintage material that I’ve had in my stash for quite a while. I used a bit of it to make my Joy journal, but I still have a bunch left. I’m working on a new spring project that I thought my material would be perfect for…once it was ironed, that is. I’ll be posting pictures of the project soon.
In other “material” news, there’s been a shocking development in the old “my sink needs a new skirt” vote! Pattern #1 is not available in the yardage I need, so Jack’s favorite, #5 is the new winner. (So exciting!). I’ll be sure to post pictures of the skirt when it is done.
The sun is shining here and the sky is gorgeous. I hope it’s sunny where you are, too!
XO,
Vicki
