Ughhh - I LOVE making lists :) I think it can be a hobby in itself 😂 I've been trying to be productive too, but then when I hear other people say "you don't have to be productive in this time" i just take that as a cue to go play video games. I am WFH right now though - so I have about the same amount of time as I usually did (because now I'm sleeping in!) I love your clay friends - they are so chonky! It's crazy how much time they take - but so worth it. I love the teapot - he looks suspicious.

[@EmmaCarpenterIllustration]

haha yes I do love a suspicious teapot 😁

Lovely clay pins/magnets Emma- my particular favourites are the Dandy-Lion and the Peeking Teapot (glad to see that design again.) I'll take a leaf out of your book and crack open the Das clay again soon as I found that helped me with stress before Christmas- so I think we could all do with some clay right now! Doing a couple of online drawing challenges has helped too- I think having a brief to focus on is a welcome distraction. I've felt lucky to have a garden this week so that I can still go outside without being near people- laps around the garden then sitting with a good book (some Scarlett Thomas this week) with the cat on my knee has been nice. Keep safe x

[@EmmaCarpenterIllustration]

Bethan Sarah thanks Beth 😄 yes it’s really therapeutic to make something with your hands. I needed to put loads of hand cream on though, what with all the hand washing and clay can be quite drying too. Glad you’re enjoying your garden. We feel really lucky to have a garden too. Looking forward to growing some veg. I’ll have to do a blueberry plant update too.

[@bethansarah4564]

@@EmmaCarpenterIllustration oh yes re: hand cream- my hands are like sandpaper these last few weeks! Blueberry update would be good. I've not grown fruits other than strawberries- but we have potatoes, onions and beetroot in at the allotment so I'm hopeful for those 😊

Oh your struggle with that tube of paint made me very concerned about some rather expensive tubes I’ve got that have been a bit neglected since having children .. I wanna go check lol .. your pins turned out lovely . Like you I have air dye clay but I don’t want the mess on my hands so I think I will wait for the postman with the oven bake stuff .. have a good day 😊

[@EmmaCarpenterIllustration]

Hi Celeste, hope you can save your paint! Yes the air drying clay is a bit more messy! 😂

[@TartantazCreates]
