Cee;s Oddball Photo Challenge: Shoe Shiner Out of Time in Napier

Good morning from a cooler Hastings day.

I must apologise if I haven’t answered all the wonderful comments that you may have left on my blog.  It was a crazy weekend.  On Saturday I spent the whole day sewing Art Deco slips and tap pants.  It took longer than expected but I did manage to finish them (and sell a set).  While yesterday I was down at the Otane Market which was part of the festival so it was busy.  I managed to sell a few things which was great.

Now that the festival is over I am back to my art again.  I have a competition in June to start work on, and I want to do more photography as well.  Work on my Photoshop skills really.

Which is what I have been doing this morning.  I have brought two Topaz preset filter sets – the textures and restyle so that I can really work on my vintage style.  Thus my two colour posts today are done in the vintage texture filters to give an antique feel.

So for Cee Neuner‘s Oddball Challenge today I tried to give a vintage feel to this shoe shiner I found in Napier last week.  I love how everyone really gets in the Art Deco era – clothes and accessories and really just embrace the festival.
