Happy World Braille Day!

 Here's a video about the importance of Braille:

And here's a shameless plug for my colouring book for blind and visually impaired people www.kirstymca.co.uk/blind

Happy New Year!

Merry Christmas!

 I've been enjoying this song.

Fairytale mattresses

Reading reviews of mattresses - I assume they were written by the three bears 🐻🐻🐻 and the princess & the pea 👸🏻🟢

The same mattress is apparently: 

• far too soft, 
• as hard as a brick, 
• really comfortable, 
• and you can feel every spring.

Adult colouring book for blind people

I keep forgetting to post about my work here!

Warmish off the press...

This is a project I've been working on for a looong time.
An adult colouring book for blind and visually impaired people. You can find it here: www.kirstymca.co.uk/blind

The pictures are printed in raised ink by the very helpful West London Print, and are specifically designed to be as understandable as possible by blind people.

Also, I have scented crayons with tactile symbols on them, so people know which colour is which.

 

Cleaning tip

If you feel your hoover isn't sooking as well as it should, it's worth checking that the hose is not blocked by such things as odd bits of plastic, straws, or the handle of a violin case.

At least I think that's what this is.

Faces

The problem with things with faces is that it seems so sad to throw them out 😟

This was once a very happy bin. It still looks very happy - but isn't really a bin any more...
