River Oak

The curse of being creative is that even if you're physically ill with the flu,your mind is still alive with ideas.

I crawled out of bed this morning to try & make my mums day a little lovely for mother dearest,but after half a day out in the elements & snotting through a box of tissues I had to go home & rest. I hate being sick. I hate being sick,feeling like crap & simultaneously being excited about a new project I want to start.

Armed with a new box of tissues,filled to the eyeballs with cold+flu tablets,rugged up like a paranoid Eskimo, I made my way to my studio to get stuck into making these little cheeseboards I've been wanting to make for a while now.

I got my hands on a beautiful piece of River Oak & thought it would be perfect to create these little cheesy delights.Um,my poor jigsaw blade just snapped,but this is the result so far! It's all trial & error,but I'm happy.

Drop by later when I've finished making these little fellas. Hopefully I'll still have fingers intact & am not in hospital with pneumonia.
