Christmas. I love DIY presents but this time nobody got anything handmade from me. I didn´t send out greeting cards, didn´t hear a single Christmas song or cared much about it at all. It was mainly because my new job kept me busy and I decided to spend may spare free time with reading suspense thrillers and falling to bed early.  I also re-watched a bunch of Monty Python episodes and laughed myself blissful. Now that December is over and things are calming down, I can go back to see my friends, my Xbox and my brushes more often ;).

But I had time to make use of the last bits of clay that were resting in my fridge. It was already so dry that I couldn´t shape anything but ugly squares.

After a lot of sandpaper work I painted my mini tapes. I also found some press buttons and rubber straps, needle and thread. Et voilà, 10 minutes later I had a tape wristband. I can attach a tape, take it off, attach a different one…blabla. The other cassettes were doomed to be buttons.
