Day 97

Really excited to be in the paper today

When I was running out of ideas about mid-way through the project and my family came up with a lot of bad puns (sorry - brilliant plays-on-words!) for me to draw my Grandad came up with 'coffee mourning (morning)' I thought funereal coffee pots were a bit macabre so I went for the day-of-the-dead shrine instead!

Day 96

How I feel some mornings!!

Day 95

So, for the final few days we've been asked to push our projects a bit further. I've pushed my coffee pot to the starry heights of .... the starry heights.
If your sign is Coffeepottius:
This morning you will enjoy an uplifting feeling from the daily grind. The current celestial climate is urging you to take a break. Whilst Beanus is retrograde you may feel as if something is brewing, just relax, the sky is insisting something refreshing will happen if you take the plunge.

Day 94

Whenever I find myself in an arty shop I always want to buy those little fancy bits of paper for scrap-booking. I've never done any scrap-booking and don't really intend to but I just can't resist those little bits of paper. So at least I've got some use out of them now!

Day 93

One of my aims with this project was to force myself to use all the scary bits in my art software. I'd tried the dreaded 3d revolve thing before with odd and unexpected results so I thought I'd have another go. My thoughts had turned to chocolate (as they do - fairly regularly!) and I thought I'd make a chocolate easter coffee pot. About as useful as a chocolate teapot!!

Day 92

Yesterday was the Indian festival of Holi which is a celebration of the end of winter and involves people throwing coloured powder at each other. It was also St Davids day and the sun even deigned to make an appearance! This got me thinking about spring festivals and was doing a bit of research and ..... excitement....there is an actual coffee festival .... this year ..... in Bath. I live in Bath ..... and you KNOW I like coffee. Whooop !!!

Day 91
