  17. These are fascinating as were the trees! I don't get around here every day, and was I ever surprised to find you've moved. Really like your new blog and love the concept about what you and any of us leave out.

  18. Thanks for sharing....what creativity. My first thoughts is that those should be displayed in an arts museum. Of course after visiting your link I find a response to that thought.

  19. I love pencils. I never use pens except for legal documents. I think this is from my civil engineering/mathematics backgound. I prefer the natural versus the mechanical and have a power sharpener on both my desk at work and home.

  20. LOVE your new home, judy!! Awesome pictures.

    ReplyDelete
  21. Amazing!

    Am I the only person who wants to sniff them? I've got a thing about newly sharpened pencils.

    That sounded way weirder than I wanted it to...

    ReplyDelete
  22. Wow, that's incredible! I love how they look 'prickly'. some look like some weird little spiny animals!

  25. I love the colours. Those gorgeous russets are just what one needs on another dreary wet day. I swear that if we had the flood and Noah's ark parts of Britain would still have a hose pope ban.

  26. Very cool. I can't even make anything interesting when I'm using them for their intended purpose.

  27. Pencils....who would have thought they could be so creative without using their lead! I am fascinated with people that fold paper and make those lacy cut outs....I am so craft challenged!

    ReplyDelete
  28. Uh... I still use them to WRITE with. Super creativity there!
