thing-a-day 2010

Thing-a-day is a yearly creative sprint where, every year in February, participants commit to creating one new thing a day and post it on a collective blog. 2010 was thing-a-day's fourth edition and the first to run on Posterous. We're gearing up for 2011 so come back mid-January for more updates!

Day Twenty-Six - Zippered Pouch

This is a project that is exactly 6 months overdo.

I have Fridays off, so I spent more time working on today's project than I have on a lot of the projects this month. In fact, I made the pouch once, decided it might be a good time to finally look up a "logical" way to sew a zipper in, and then remade it. I am soooo pleased, and so glad I decided to try it again. I used this tutorial and it was a breeze. It worked out perfectly and I have no ugly seams showing like when I've made zipper pouches before. Now, I'm going to want to make a bunch more.

The image is from a crab drawing that my best friend draws and the pouch is for her birthday, which was six months ago. Tada! Happy Birthday Erica!

TAD - Day 25: a pearl and sterling silver bracelet

I appear to have completely forgotten to post this yesterday. Bad me. I blame the sunshine - it's nice weather here again finally!

Anyway, yesterday's Thing was a red and white freshwater pearl bracelet, wrapped in argentium sterling silver and finished with a handmade argentium toggle clasp.

Today's Thing will come later, as inspiration strikes...

TAD Day 24: Bell Peppers

Taking photos while you cook is quite fulfilling but SO time-consuming. :) I have had quite a few "TAD"s spurred on by this group but never got around to posting them! I will simply try to finish out the month at this point. Thanks for check out my photo(s).

Bell Peppers - These colorful vegetables are rich in antioxidants and vitamins: β-Carotene (Vitamin A), Lycopene, Folic Acid, Vitamin C & Vitamin B6 ; Red, orange and yellow bell peppers are just different stages of ripened/mature green bell peppers, and they have a lot more β-Carotene & lycopene than green bell peppers, as you can tell by their color. If someone in your house doesn't like them fresh/lightly cooked in dishes - try roasting them. Yum!

My 19-th "thing-a-day" is inspired by the wonderful tango dance scene from the movie “Scent Of A Woman” ;). Do you remember? Hoo-haa!

TAD - Day 10: Deerstuff's Coloured Dreams: "Lucky Love & Pansies" ;)

Well, I’ve been “busy like a bee” all day, but as I’m trying not to become too stressed, I found time (among other things) to paint (with acrylics and permanent markers) some paper hearts I made a few days ago for Valentine’s Day and to make an easy chocker style necklace (on memory wire) featuring crocheted pansies.

Enjoy them!
