home again

Home again and exhausted as expected. So much to say.
And I’m sure there are pictures on cameras out there I need to share. And some I never want anyone to share. (Thanks Jules for your part in making sure some of them are never seen, I’ll slip ya that hundred sometime for that deleting effort). Email me nic.paul (at) xtra.co.nz if you have some you don’t mind me posting. And if I don’t answer you within half a day, that is because xtra is an ass and bounces half the emails it is meant to receive. If you try and send one and it bounces, please report it to your server, as apparantly, xtra won’t fix it until it is reported by the other server. Nice.

Kiwiscraps Sydney was great. Same atmosphere as Auckland. Just getting down and messy with stuff we haven’t neccessarily seen since kindergarten. Thanks for those of you that trusted me with crayons. and if you have any of my projects posted on your blog, or you see one posted on a blog, let me know.

I met a tonne of people this time. One highlight was going for a small walk with 2 incredibly talented ladies, Vivian Bonder and Dannielle Q I learnt more about photography in a 15 min walk than I ever thought I’d know. Just by watching these ladies. I love little gems in the day like that. (Thanks ladies, AGAIN).

I’ll post more when I have pics, but for now, Jaimie Emmerton, this is for you. I told ya I was damn cute when I’m in the garden.

    Hi Nic,

    Just wanted to say how fantastic your wildflowers class was. I was in the first class on Friday (you lent me your Kraft knife). I got home yesterday and have now started finishing all my projects. I finished wildflowers this morning and just LUV it and of course beading. In fact have just ordered a few different colours from Kiwiscraps so I can start beading everything lol 🙂 The whole weekend was FaNTastic and all the classes extroidanary. I’m so fired up and inspired to play with all the new tecniques I learn’t over the weekend. Thanks again for such a fantastic class it was so much FUN.

    Cheers
