So, what have I got to show for the last few days!?

I have finally made something...with all good intentions of making a lot over the last several days.  I did get my altered art class for January fairly well planned-out and on paper (computer).  Not much to show there.  And I did get the tables in my studio cleaned off and most of the items put away (somewhere).  Several times I have felt like I was really making progress, but then, oops!, off to the emails and Pinterest or a new 'search'.  Gotta keep up with what is going on!
I love my computer gadgets though.  What did we ever do without them? 
To the question...
I am showing a picture of two little items that I have made...a paper feather and a new-style flower from paper.  Most of the time I never know what I am going to do with the little items I make.  And such is the case with these.
But, since I am going to be doing altered books this year and making books too, I think I will find a place for these and some of the other items that I have around in my studio with no purpose.
I have also started with the doodlings again - zentangles or zendoodles.  We'll be doing these in the first altered art class.  So, I decided I need to have a few more to show of my own creations.  I used my sister former sudoku keeper/carrier as a container to keep them in.  It's purple and is large enough to work on the top like a desk.  In the bed...with my Ipod and Tablet on one side and the Nook on the other...plus my reading glasses and the remote for the fan.  What a life?!  I'll show you some photos of them also, but I want to practice with my Tablet...taking pictures, or scanning (as they call it) and saving them to put into this blog.  That could take a while.....
So, off I go because I have a urge to turn on some lights and get something else done...polyclayer are coming on Wednesday.  :-)

IPOD Bloopers!

"Speaking of bottoms I just emptied mine
Out about an hour ago to find one I needed
I love my button jar. Recently I found a neat container
For them so I can leave them out to look at them"
 
So occacionally our much beloved Ipods, which have a mind of their own (thanks, Steve, RIP), comes out with a good one...user beware!
This I got from a friend of mine...of course, we weren't really speaking of bottoms at all...lol.
 
I just had to pass this along from my good friend Eva.
