wiseheartI had two really, really successful days!
Firstly, I have finished Chapter 18 to Arthur's Quest - Book One, wrote 4 pages of the next chapter and figured out how this particular story will end, alltogether with 21 chapters.
Then I wrote out the entire plot summary to my long-nurtured Merlin BBC/Camelot story idea, so that it would actually make sense. Needless to say that it's going to be. 25-chapter monstrosity again, unless it spawns a few more parts in the process. I think I should try my hand on drabbles next...
Then, if you remember, I bought this DIY-set in Vienna:

And was very angry because it didn't include any instructions. Well, thanks to previous experience with such things as well as a very useful link prvided by![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
lindahoyland, I have produced my first shimmering paper angel an hour or so ago. It's not perfect yet, but now I know where the taps are, and the next one will be even better.
I also stitched a rather complicated X-mas card and did a great deal of Merlin-and Camelot-related research. Go me!
The only thing I had to postpone was giving the paper balls a try. Stupid supermarket had a hundred different tools, just not the conic thingie you need to make those little loops on the end of the wire, and without that I couldn't even stert. Grrrrrr!

Date: 2014-11-01 08:36 am (UTC)We are going to make garlands of little bells out of nespresso capsules with the kids next. A colleague provided hundreds of them. We have already scratched out the used coffee residues for the compost heap at school and washed the things. They had a week and a half to dry out completely during autumn break, so we can start with the creative part when we get back.
