tilt

I realise this would be more exciting if I posted more often that just once a week. However, it's gifting season, so I have been busy sewing and cutting and printing and modpodging...but no photos of the crafting, because that would give away the surprise! I did make some ornaments, but on account of my camera not being with me right now I can't upload any photos.

I have also been job hunting. I am employed, but my little start-up company is rumoured to have only a short time left, and morale is at an all-time low (probably the most dangerous thing, more dangerous than not having money). I am suprised at how the job market is...well, beyond slow. It shouldn't be shocking, but I can't remember ever having seen such a low volume of new postings. Oh well, it's almost the new year, and things will look up. Convincing?

Since it's Thursday, I bring you another TILT!

• Driving shoes. Specifically these ones - which are somewhere between a loafer and a driving shoe, but most importantly they can be thrown in the washing machine! So they don't get stinky! I don't like socks so much so these are perfect. I already have two pairs BUT NOT IN THAT COLOUR! So these are on my list for this year.
• Having a heater under my desk at work. The office is freezing but I am toasty while I am working, thanks to an extra heater finding its way under my desk and keeping my legs and feet warm.
• Denim. Yes, I love jeans, but that's not what I am talking about here. I have been making my holiday crafts using pieces of denim from my collection and then embroidering festive motifs on them (photos soon!) and I just love how they have ended up looking clean and modern, yet rustic at the same time. I think it helps that our tree is white and then all the ornaments are either light or dark denim (I like a theme).
• Eyeglasses! I have been switching up between my old frames and really like them as an accessory.
