Collecting color: White June

June is hot, really really hot so the white collection was arranged within minutes, photographed a couple of times and the whole thing was over in less than 30 minutes. I would like to try it again, maybe pick a few more things, try another arrangement but honestly I don't have the courage to do so.
Also there are no close ups as my pocket camera refuses to focus on white on white, I sort of new this would happen but I'm too exhausted to even give it more than a couple of tries. It doesn't focus? Fine then, no close ups.
The items are: my favorite cotton shirt, it's long sleeved perfect for spring and autumn. Three Ikea vases and a pot planter, I actually have a couple more vases that I didn't put in I think I'm a bit obsessed with white vases. Another Vassilis Alexakis book, a couple of paper doilies, Kings of Leon first album "Youth & young manhood" one of my favorites, two plastic cookie cutters shaped like a moon and a heart and finally two clay figures made from cookie cutters: a snail and a squirrel.
That's it for white and for June! See more white collections right here and make your own!
Have a great day,

Monday Moodboard - Tired

It's been four days since we came back from our short holiday and I didn't return alone from this trip, I brought back with me a a nasty cold. I've been sick since Thursday, at first my throat hurt then my nose started running and it all went bad from there. I'm just starting to feel better but the most surreal part of it all is being having a fever when the temperature outside is reaching 35 °C, while others where going to the beach I could hardly get out of the bed. Not to mention that this week we're expecting a mini heatwave, the temperature will be as high as 38°C, summer is here there's no denying it. 

I'm hoping I'll be able to take some photos of our workspace for the new about pages on Etsy, I really like the new feature just haven't been up to making it and also had a new idea about some clay jewelry that I want to try. So starting this week feeling tired but also a bit hopeful that I'll get some of the things on my list accomplished.

Have a great week,
