Today I share another photograph from the archives. Also another photograph of a hand. This photograph was taken in Karachi in a wicker furniture makers workshop. It was a long time ago so I don't remember what it was that he was making but I remember the movement of his fingers, working so quickly weaving the bamboo.

I see you've got the hand theme going. Those can be striking images. Are you planning to do another hand next week?

What a fascinating glimpse into craftsmanship! The speed and precision of the wicker furniture maker's hands must have been incredible to watch. The movement of fingers weaving bamboo sounds so fluid and skillful, capturing the essence of time and expertise. It's amazing how a single photograph can hold such a vivid memory of an experience, even if the exact details fade over time. It seems like a moment of art and craftsmanship frozen in time!

What a beautiful moment captured in time! The image of a skilled artisan working with such precision and speed is fascinating, especially when it’s something as intricate as weaving bamboo. It’s amazing how a simple gesture, like the movement of his fingers, can leave such a lasting impression. Your photograph sounds like a powerful reminder of craftsmanship and the attention to detail in everyday work. Thank you for sharing that memory!

Wow, so many things come to mind when seeing that hand in your photo. The first thing is how I would just like to visit with that person and learn their life story.

Awesome photo! I love seeing a working person's hands. I always loved my husband's hands when he worked in a warehouse and how rough they got. When he went corporate and used them less, it made me a little sad. Working hands are just beautiful to me.

Kitchen and Family Room: New Flooring

Image
When the wall between our family room and kitchen see details here came down we had to deal with two different flooring, old carpet and newish laminate. The plan was to find the same laminate.. we found the box in the basement, how hard could it be? Harder than we thought.. that particular one had been discontinued.. and finding something similar was not an easy task..  Finding a flooring that was kind of close but not close enough would seem like a mistake.. so we decided to go different, this way it would seem like an intentional design choice.. I had always wanted a chocolaty dark floor.. The next thing to take into consideration was the transition between the two floors.. generally what is used it a T- Moulding, that strip you see in the above picture connecting the two floors together. Not the prettiest option. Pinterest to the rescue..  Adding tile to the mix would help to blend the two different brown together and there would be no awkward bump in t...

D's Amazing Race Party

Last weekend our eldest turned 9.. and we threw him an amazing race birthday party! As with all the boys other parties.. I bought a plain white cake from Wegmans and let D decorate it himself. We had a total of nine kids.. they picked bandanna's out of a bag to create 3 teams. First Task Not all the kids knew each other.. they were too amped up with the idea of winning that they couldn't manage to calm down and read the clue.. so we had to really guide them through it.. they made mistakes and we let it go.. it seemed a tad chaotic..  Second Task I had 33 little medicine cups filled with M&M's and Goldfish crackers.. 6 of them had stickers on the bottom. The first two teams found the sticker in the first try... what are the odds!? And the third team had to eat a lot of snacks before they finally found their sticker. Third Task I bought 48 piece puzzles from the Dollar Tree. The boys took their time making ...
