Facebook page for Here Be Snapdragons

I've created a facebook page. I'm trying to find out which works best for me a blog or a more instantaneous presence. Perhaps a mix of the two. But right now the blog alone isn't doing it.

Paul Klee's notebooks online

How wonderful that Paul Klee's annotated notebooks have gone online. 10 years and 4000 pages. What a precious resource.

I heard about it here:

This is the actual resource:

Rust Dyeing

I've been doing a bit of rust dyeing.

1:1 water:white vinegar. Soak with some old nails or keys for a few weeks - you'll see the colour change and intensify. I put a copper pipe on top but it didn't have much effect. It's useful to put things in a transparent container so you can see underneath.

Hey presto:

From underneath

Love how the screws show up

Looking forward to take this further in the future.
