Tree Change

I moved to the Blue mountains to do less and guess what I have managed to do more.
The thing is that  I am busy doing what I love, creating.
In my city life I also had a job I loved for more than 20 yrs, especially my coworkers, except the hours were way too long, with long periods of sitting around doing nothing but  think of what I would like make/create.
Fortunately I still get to dip into that work now and then, laugh lots and come back home.
Spent a couple of hours poking around in Surry Hils yesterday looking for bamboo handles, rare as hens teeth, easy to find plastic imitations.
Found them at E M Greenfeilds an amazing place straight out the Dickensian era. Smiles are strictly forbidden and the staff look like they have been there as long as Surry Hills itself. Still they had the handles,18 of them so I bought them all.
As any handmade lover will know when you find what your looking for it's heaven.
