My Own Little Corner

WEEKLY INFORMAL CHALLENGE 126: "My Special Place"

This week's challenge is all about a place that's personally special.
I have a couple of special places but the one that I tend to gravitate
to most is my craft room. I may sew or paper-craft or simply sit in
this room and simply be. It's a place where I don't have any pressures
on me other than my own self-imposed ones. It's a place where I'm learning
to let go and just be me.



(My apologies for the graininess. I'm struggling with my eyesight
at the moment and to make matters worse, my ophthalmologist
just rescheduled my appointment! UGH!)

It looks very peaceful and inviting. Something to do if you want. Of if you don't, you don't have to. Lovely light and color in this still life. V.

What a great idea, Brenda! I also have a room devoted to crafts and photography but I never thought of it for this challenge. Hope your eye problem get better soon!

I think I know what you mean. Everyone needs a place to relax, without the pressure to do anything. Fine composition.

No wonder that your eyes are hurting if you work in that dim light on that machine! Good recovery for you!
