Oh, yeah! That's my charm circle. I did make it, and I hang little charms from it as I make them, so it's an ongoing project. It's also the holding place for all the beadwork for my Project I Started Ages Ago And Need To Finish But I Totally Haven't Worked On It In Forever: I'm beading the Song of Amergin, which is an ancient Druid poem, in Irish, in ogham (the Celtic alphabet), in seed beads. EVENTUALLY the finished beadwork will probably line my cloak. But I have a lot of lines left to bead, lol. The beadwork looks like this:
OK, that picture is upside down, but you get the idea. :D
So each section of the beading is one line in the poem. And each color of the letters is a word.
I remember the Amergin coat artwork! I am still amazed and hope you will one day complete it. It is so mythical to have the magic written (in a kind of code) on your coat.
And the charm circle is also a lovely project, perhaps you will write about this one day? I always admire such projects but I seldom finish them... I have to work on my patience.
(By the way, what are the fly thingies doing? Mine are less, but now I have greenflies on my peppermint 😱😱)
I was thinking I might take up the beading again while I'm self isolating. It's a good time for it, eh? :)
Hey, you complete a lot more projects than I do! I always have 10,001 projects going at a time. LOL. I'm super impressed by your productivity!
Oh the fungus gnat flies? Yeah ...they're still around. >:( Driving me crazy! I got some more aqua globes going and their numbers went way down, but then they seem to have recovered. I need to clean the drains, will be my next move. I do have some plant cuttings in water to root which doesn't help, and I keep finding them in the cat dishes of water (and in my drinks, and any time I try to soak a dish in the sink to clean it, and... ). But they die in the standing water, so I think they are breeding in the drains like they did before, so I'm hoping if I give them a good flush with cleaner and hot water it will kill off and flush away any eggs and I can be rid of them. Annoying little buggers! I think they killed one of my spider plant babies I was trying to root. :( Apparently they eat the roots of plants!
