It can be somewhat tricky to photograph jewellery, especially when doing so for the first time. Even the smallest of errors can lead to your special pieces looking somewhat distorted and dull, nowhere near as immaculate and beautiful as they appear to the naked eye.
For people who live somewhere which is quite small such as a bedsit, a houseboat, a flat, a studio apartment, or a cabin, it can sometimes be difficult to display the number of photos in picture frames that they would like to. This is, of course, due to the lack of available wall space. To hang all the picture frames that we would potentially want could easily leave the space looking cluttered, unbalanced and overcrowded.
The passing of a loved one is never easy whatever their age when they died. We are all different and we all grieve in different ways. For some, despite the loss, they are able to move on and continue with their lives fairly quickly but for other people, it can be quite a long time before they are able and ready for their life to return to some type of normality.
One of my best friends has recently inherited a rare coin collection. The collection was found in a box in a loft. After conducting research and meeting with a couple of specialists in the field it was established that the coins were of little monetary value. It was advised that this may well change if they were passed down to future generations.
On the 5th of May street parties were held up and down the country, including at Downing Street, to celebrate VE Day.
If you are looking for a unique gift to give to a loved one for their birthday or to celebrate the birth of a newborn baby, then a framed map of the stars on the day that they were born may well do the trick.
Needlepoint is something that is seemingly becoming more and more popular. This is no doubt in part due to the increase in the cost of living as people choose to make their own pillows, wall hangings, chair covers, eyeglass cases, and Christmas stockings, to name but a few.
We are fortunate in the United Kingdom to be home to forty-nine species of butterfly and two regular migrants called The Painted Lady (Vanessa cardui) and the Clouded Yellow (Colias croceus). In recent years there has been a reduction in the overall population of butterflies in the UK and around half of these forty-nine species are seeing a decline in their numbers.
I fondly remember how excited I was as a child during the Easter period. There were just so many fun things happening. At school, we would make Easter cards for our family, there would be an Easter bonnet parade, we would decorate hard-boiled eggs with different colours and the teacher would decide which they thought was the best, and there would be a play in the school hall which would tell the story of Easter.
