My Drawing in pencil.

Process: I drew the figure on watercolour paper with a pencil using the 9 HEADS METHOD. Tore up pieces of handmade paper and attached them to watercolour paper using Mod Podge Waterbase Sealer, Glue and Finish-Matte and a foam brush. seal with Mod Podge and let dry. While the sealer was drying, I traced the drawing onto watercolour paper because  I wanted to keep the original sketch. Outlined the lady with black colour pencil and coloured with watercolour pencils. Blended the watercolour pencils using a small paintbrush and water. Let dry. Cut out the figure using small detail scissors, a cutting mat and a craft knife. Attached the figure to the collage using a strong adhesive.

A better Homepage.

I recently started a new homepage using Google Sites. I am using the free plan at the moment. 

I find it easier to use than the Adobe site. I love that it backs up automatically to my Google drive. 

I like the menu at the top and the social Icons that I could easily add. 

"Google Workspace is free for anyone with a Google account to access and use, but there there are a variety of paid Workplace subscriptions that range from $6 to $18 per month that offer additional business-level features, including a custom domain for your Google Site." - Livewire 

Some of the new pages that I have added are:

Scrapbook, 

Unfortunately, Google Sites has its own image store which you cannot access from elsewhere. I can’t have subscribers unless I use a subscription service. I have linked it to my Website, Blog and other Social sites. I have also added a link to my blog's top menu. There are many Tutorials on the web, I have added some below.  It is used by teachers and students as well.

Our camper kitchen box.

We used a kitchen box during our recent Road-trip and found it worked very well. We leave it outside on the table as it seals well and is filled with our most used non-food items.


 We used a Murdoch’s Plastic Ammo Crate, which is water-resistant. The lid contains a rubber gasket that helps keep contents dry, while a brass latch keeps the lid securely shut. The boxes are very popular for camping as they have been molded with stacking ridges for slip-resistant stacking. We keep it on our bed when travelling.

   

Kitchen Box Contents: Top Left to right: Red Storex Stretch Pencil Box, 5.6 x 13.4 x 2.52 Inches for cutlery, Red Storex Stretch Pencil Box, 5.6 x 13.4 x 2.52 Inches for utensils (see next photo) Paper towel, oven mitt and hand towel, containers for spices, lighters & small stuff and spoon rest.

Bottom Left to right: Marina Braai Salt 400 gm (a South African product, which we use a lot of) Kitchen utensils ( stored in Red Storex Stretch Pencil Box, kitchen utensils (see next photo), fast food trays 10 by 14-Inch (we use these on our laps while eating) and 4 Corelle plates. We also store paper napkins between the plate. We don't have cups in our box, as we have to inside the camper in any case for the milk, teabags, coffee, etc.

We use very few paper plates and cups, as they take up a lot of space in our garbage, which has to be kept inside the camper. We don't always have a fire to burn them, we were fortunate that we did have plates as there was a fire ban in the area.

    

 Most used big stainless steel kitchen utensils with a hole in the handle and attached to a carabiner: Kitchen tongs (held closed with an elastic) large serving spoon, spatula, perforated Serving Spoon and a ladle.

I got this idea from HOW TO ORGANIZE CAMPING GEAR: TIPS FOR PUTTING TOGETHER A CAMPING SUPPLIES BOX

The Strangers in the Box.

These are photos I acquired from Where on Earth? Antique Mall in Airdrie, Alberta, Canada. Unfortunately, the photos do not have much information. Click on thumbnails for larger images.

I think most of the photos are from Circa 1900 and were probably taken in Canada and the U.S.A. Some are printed on postcards with handwriting on the back. One postcard has the photographer's stamp on the back. Some are matted and stamped with the photographer's signature.

The Strangers in the Box.

Come, look with me inside this drawer
In this box I’ve often seen,
At the pictures, black and white, |
Faces proud, still and serene.

I wish I knew the people,
These strangers in the box,
Their names and all their memories
Are lost among the socks.

I wonder what their lives were like,
How did they spend their days?
What about their special times?
I’ll never know their ways.

If only someone would have taken time,
To tell who, what, and when,
Those faces of my heritage
Would come to life again.

Could this become the fate
Of the pictures we take today?
The faces and the memories
 Someday to be tossed away.

Make time to save your pictures,
Seize the opportunity when it knocks,
Or someday you and yours could be
The strangers in the box.

Orphan photo

"The Old Scrapbook" By C. Nathalie Ellen Milliken

It speaks of times now long ago
In a voice so soft and low,

Come, my friend, see what you can see,
Come and take a look at me.

My bright colors are faded and dim, 

But my spirit is bright within,

Pictures of people in days gone by,
Laughing and crying, we know not why,

Cards and pamphlets, and programs old,
What are the stories they have told?

Wrapping paper, an old gift tag,
Pieces of this, and bits of that,

Little treasures that people have saved,
 Celebrations of special days,

So many mem’ries my pages fill,
They’re waiting now to give you a thrill,

So come, my friend, come take a look,
I am a very special old book,

My binding is cracked, but my heart is whole.
Looking at me is like finding gold.
