Numbers

Twelve. 
The list of different items I would like to design for the next batch.

Seven.
The number of days I have to complete said batch. During which I, of course, also have to complete my normal (job) working hours. And sleep, eat, and do everything else mortals do.

Zero.
The amount of designs I have worked out already.

...Houston, we have a problem.

Now, before you accuse me of being a slacker, a procrastinator, a bad planner and a crazy person in general: it's not my fault. Even though usually those accusations wouldn't be that far off, but that's another topic.

No, it is because my first Shapeways order has been delivered, later than planned, and I've been busy non stop before and after that point with setting up the website, facebook page and other social media, photography, filming and many more of those things. Even during my holiday. Yes. That's how devoted I am (*insert pat on the back*).

Luckily, the website has officially been launched today and pretty much everything is done. So now I can stop harassing J. to help me with the website, photo's and filming (which he did with honours, I have to say ;) ), and go back to harassing him about what to do with the 3D modelling software. Poor J. ... I owe him many apple pies.

Back to modelling: I'll be busy with deadlines once again. Don't mind me. I will recover one day (*insert dramatic rolling eyes and "I'm going to faint" hand to forehead*).

In between, some shots of things I did lately, other than above work:

I baked spelt bread for the first time. It tasted good.

Finished a basket for my friend's birthday. It was supposed to be finished one year ago, for... right, her birthday.

With the sewing machine set up already, I sewed a curtain for the 'we have way too many projects going on' storage bookcases in our living room. One down, two to go.

Made a film stamp to brighten up my brother's birthday present (movie tickets).

And I tried my hand at painting a few postcard-sized panels to add some colour to my desk area. Started out with the upper one, enlarged some elements of the first panel in the second panel, and did the same again with the third. I originally planned to use turquoise and blue hues, but since my white and black paint had hardened, I had to add more colours. Ah well, nothing wrong with more colour right?
