Close Up

I was cleaning out a box of collected odds and ends over the weekend and took these close-up shots of a few of the items found inside.  I've almost completed some of the knit/crochet elements of a few more arty projects, so I'll be able to post them later this week.  Everything is sort of half-finished right now and I'm having trouble really focusing in on one thing to get it done - I end up doing bits and pieces of each thing without making significant progress on any one project! 

I DID finish reading Anthem over the weekend and loved it.  Loved it.  It's a quick read, which makes it a great introduction to Ayn Rand before getting into Atlas Shrugged or The Fountainhead.  Next I'm starting Swann's Way, which has been on my to-read list since college.  It's kind of intimidating, but after reading Ulysses I think I'm up for anything!
