Mosaics

Ever since Penny introduced me to world of Mosaics I have been kind of hooked. I really love doing it. I have completed 4 now, my number 14 is hanging up very proudly at the front of the house and here are some pics of the other 3.

And the F is for Freeman, not Fried Fingertips!

Fingers are actually doing fine but I feel like a bit of a spaz with some things. Combine blistered fingers with freezing cold temperatures at Markets this morning and you can imagine!

Ok Off to hang up mosaics in the Pool Room.


Fingertips

Posted on

I can begin a life of crime. I have lost my fingerprints!

Last night I was making dinner and put the pot in the oven to cook the chicken. I took the pot out after an hour, turned to get a spoon to stir the sauce and put my hands on the handles to move it onto the hotplate. The feeling of your fingertips burning is not good really. I ran them under cold water, had them dunked in a tub of cold water while the kids ate dinner and clutched an ice pack for the rest of the evening.

I now have little neat blisters on each fingertip and a numb sensation to go with it. As I type this it feels weird!

I guess I won’t be able to cook or clean for at least a week. Shame that!
