CONCRETE AND CLAY AND EVERYTHING IN BETWEEN

 I've never taken a fancy to concrete stuff but my recent foray into this medium has proven me wrong. There are lots of stuff you can create with concrete - not a success story every time - but I'm really happy with those that came out looking alright.

A SUMMARY OF ALL CRAFTS MADE IN 2020 AND 2021

 Interestingly enough with the lockdown that started in 2020, I've been really happy making crafts and more crafts. Gardening is another great pleasure of mine but I might have to set up a different blog altogether.
