For the past 12 months it's been a real struggle to get in touch with my creative side. I thought that I would try something different (I've never done a portrait before) so thought I would do one up as a Litha gift for one of the wonderful ladies that I work with. I'm not 100% happy with it, but my kids tell me that I'm my own harshest critic.

Once again the holiday weather has been less than cooperative. Brrrrr......Too cold and wet to be outside - I have still been creative though - just in a different way. I have started making a Romani costume for my daughter. I have also been playing around with different resin and glue finishes for some of the staffs that I've been working on.

More progress on the two staff's. The burning process is a little tricky on the curved surface of the staff but I'm (mostly) happy with the results.

It's hard to get a good picture of the staff as a whole (it's 198cm tall) but it's getting very close to being complete - I'm not sure if I want to add anything else....

I had to spend the last week in isolation (courtesy of a positive case in the house) so I managed to get a start on some of my next projects. I'm making a staff or four. The timber was sourced locally - after the first lot of flooding but I'm not sure what it is. Whatever it is, it's certainly beautiful under the bark. Hopefully I'll get a chance to work on them during the week, but if not, holidays are just around the corner ☺

Well, the holidays certainly did not go to plan - between family commitments in Brisbane and some not so nice weather and flooding courtesy of Cyclone Seth - the only thing I got done (creativity wise) was to make a bunch of face masks and I also managed to find some wonderful (potential) staffs from amongst the flotsam and jetsam left over from the floods - kind of annoyed that I didn't get in touch with my creative side, but there's always the weekends I suppose. Much love to you all - BB

Only a week or two to the next school holidays and I can get creative again. I've picked up quite a lot of naturally shed deer antler so I'm hoping to make some new wands and I'm going to try making a staff or two. I'll hopefully get around to making another Wheel of the Year as well - BB :)

Well, the holidays are nearly over and I have ended up with seven completed wands and three still under construction. I'm pretty happy with how they have turned out. Love learning new skills 😊

Rainy weather (love it) means the chance to work on some more wands. This time around I've used smokey quartz, obsidian, amethyst and clear quartz - Now I just have to decide how to finish them off.

Finally finished the three I've been working on. The last one has bells in the handle (but it sounds more like a rattle - I'm going to have to work on this) and a clear crystal point with a smaller crystal growing on the side. The trim is suede, feathers & wooden beads. The last one also has lava and onyx beads as well. Pretty happy with the results so far.

I've finished these two and have started on a third. Made from ethically sourced deer antler, the smaller one is 38cm with a single quartz tip and the longer one is 45cm with a quartz point at either end. I have also carved runes into the handle of the longer wand. Not exactly what I had planned for the holidays, but sometimes you just have to go with the flow 😊

It wasn't on the 'To Do' list, but it was fun to create anyway.
