Reality

Three ladies came to visit today and we worked on these little stool type stick structures. They are going to weave the seats when at home, which should be fun. I was glad to have got the objects to this stage in a day. If you have to leave things half way through it gives the sticks a chance to dry out and they are a lot more prone to snapping. The sculpture (lower right) has been living on a big plank outside the front of the house, but he had to make do on the floor for the day as we used that plank as our work bench. It was nice to have the toads for company as they were chirping about in the pond all day (just out of shot among the grasses on the left). One of the ladies asked if the toads were real, city folk aye.
