363. Funky Purple Travel Star

Okay... this project is really coming to a close quite soon...

I've been thinking a lot about this, lately. What's certain is that I'm not going to continue with daily stars, neither am I going to jump right into the next project. I honestly need a break.

But I had an idea how I might take something with me into the "life after 365"...

I painted a little wooden star I had still lying around, and will now carry it around with me and take some pictures of it in special (or very ordinary, everyday) places whenever I feel like it. Also, it's particularly great to make one right now as I'm just about to leave for Ireland and two weeks of - possibly - traveling around... (And I'm not one for garden gnomes, really) So, lots to see for this little star:



It's about the size of a €2 coin and thus not ideal for taking pictures in front of famous large landmarks or the likes, but it'll do somehow. At least it's easy to take around and needs no careful packing. :)

  1. That is an awesome idea! I finished my project in January and have been thinking of doing something similar. "A day in my life" and pose my little turtle once a day during some mundane daily task or by something fun I did that day. But I haven't acted on that thought yet!
    I don't post often, but I have been watching and enjoying your stars!

  3. What a great idea! Also have you ever read "The Great Gatsby"? It's a good book and the cover reminds me soooo much of this little guy! Just the colors and the way you've arranged them :)

    1. He can wait to fly over to America, you know... ;D
      I don't know the book, but I think I found the cover you meant. Anyway, I should read it: I've just been looking for some books to read next. So thanks for mentioning it! :)
