Random Inspiring Internet Fun Times

Step Two.
Read my ramblings whilst listening to Michael Kiwanuka's beauty.

I have spent hours on the internet this afternoon (as well as learning an awesome hula hoop move).
Below are the fruits of my 'labour':

Egg shell mosaic art. It's a massive leap from when we used to do the
same thing aged 5 or so.... I think I will do an entire door in it in my new house.
Extreme birdhouse. Look at that guy; seriously it is crazy. The architect in me
says ' incredible!' and the realist in me knows that it'll be covered in ick pretty fast indeed.

Random Creepy Guy. Enough said really, though there
 are a lot of rubbish ones on the site... 


The Electric Forest
A great night light trail in the woods.
Coming to Dorset 11-19th feb 2012

Yes, that's right. I found the weird geeky bit of the net.
Bacon is good for me, right?



This is outstanding.
 Todd Mclellan, marry me.
The sketchbook or diary becomes the central line of inquiry
 for Peter Callesen .....

... and the thoughts which we put in it. He continues to blow my little mind.
Yes, it is a bit twisted, but Thomas Czarnecki looks at potential alternatives
 to Disney's 'happy ever afters' . What if it was all a trap for Alice?
What if Cinderella had fallen down the stairs?
What if Pocahontas became a hunter's trophy?
Check it out.

DIY Embellished tights! So simple that it angers me that
I didn't already think of it. Shall do this I think... or maybe this.

Alright. I'll stop.
If the song has run out, then I suggest you run after it, all the way to youtube/other listening places and find some more chilled music. More of Kiwanka? Maybe some summer boat jamming fun with Lisa Hannigan and John Smith?

Or, something even better....
My Drunk Kitchen
Mimosas! (from episode 'Brunch')
You can find Hannah Harto, My Drunk Kitchen extraordinaire, on youtube or on her swanky page. It'll be one of the best things you do today, I assure you. 

ALSO. Please visit my other page - http://abibanfield.posterous.com/ Pretty please!!

Have a lovely day.

Long Time, No Post

Dear Reader,
First of all I would like to thank you for reading this. 
I know I haven't been the most interesting blog so far, and I want to up the ante considering I have big ideas planned for this year. My new years resolution is to bring the art and creativity into my personal life rather than keep it bottled up for coursework. I really do believe that creativity has no limit; the more you create, the more ideas you have, and then it just keeps on going. Or at least this is the notion in my head.
I am braving my life to hitch-hike to Croatia in Easter. SO little time left to raise money! I'll be crafting my way to the  fundraising total with the help of Etsy.
Keep your eyes peeled! 
All my love,
Abi

PS The website, 'Dear Photograph', always inspires me. Enjoy: 
Dear Photograph,

New Year’s resolutions and 30 years gone  by…what was that little boy inside of me thinking about so long  ago? I hope I never quit chasing that little boy’s dreams. It’s what  matters most.
