The Foibles of Bloggle and What Happens to Your Coffee
Hello Friends!
I hope my new word Bloggle amuses you. What does it mean I hear you whisper amongst yourselves? Well, it's a combination of blogger and boggle, because my mind is boggling at what Blogger is doing hence bloggle.
Google's latest trick sent to frustrate and confound me is to allow me to publish your kind comments and the next thing I'm finding them inexplicably moved into my spam box despite the fact that I have published them!!!
Blogger is also not keeping me informed of new followers, but I note my numbers have gone up, so Welcome, Welcome to my little corner of the world.
As regular readers will recall I recently took part in an online Twinchie art challenge. It was only twelve days, but I made a lot more than 12 miniature pieces of art. So as always, the question arises of how to store them? Many of you may remember I enjoy making custom made boxes for things, so that's exactly what I did, and here it is. I used a Martha Stewart punch for the central motif and glued a piece of old gold card to the underside which also provides stability.
Under construction, with clamps holding wet glue while it all cures.
It's nice to be able to make custom fit boxes for just about anything.
You may recall one of the small pieces was a 2 inch square with a lighthouse on it. Well, I enjoyed making that one so much that I did a small A5 piece using the two inch piece as my source of inspiration here. it is now, following the Twinchie version.
It can be worse when your paint water looks like pineapple juice. I will say no more on the subject.
