An sock remade

Creativity comes out in all sorts of ways! I had a lovely stripy sock....just one. what to do?

I fiddled and fiddled and made a little hat decoration. I hate throwing things away that could be reused.
What have you re-used?

Autumn beauty!

I have just had a wonderful walk and despite the grey weather  but the colour and shapes of the leaves made up for it.
No matter the weather there is always something beautiful out there.

Coco Chanel at saatchi exhibition

MADEMOISELLE PRIVÉ.

I joined the huge queue yesterday to see the exhibition:This exhibition according to the Saatchi website..'presented a journey through the origins of CHANEL's creations capturing the charismatic personality and irreverent spirit of Mademoiselle Chanel and Karl Lagerfeld.' 
This exhibition was sensual experience, smells (perfume), sights, touch (fabrics) and sounds (including birdsong at the approach to the exhibition).
Fun experience and entrance was free.
