Many crafters are obsessive people in that once they begin something they cannot stop. How many times have you heard yourself saying 'Just let me finish this row,' to find yourself still sitting there half an hour later. My latest obsession is much like that only with a smartphone App called Prisma. If you value your time, do not go and investigate this App, nor indeed should you down load it because if like me you can be obsessive you will loose hours of your time.
I enjoy inviting you to join me for a cup of tea or more often than not a glass of wine and I kid you not you really may need that refreasment whilst scrolling through this post today. ALERT: This is an incredibly photo heavy post and little writing, scroll thorough quickly and just stop where your eye is caught by something, I really could not be selective and have shared with you 5 photos of my crochet that have been given the prisma treatment.

| My latest creation, if you are curious there is a blog post just about this! Lampshade bling |
My faithful painted bench and two outdoor crocheted cushions, these cushions are great as I have backed them in oilcloth, perfect for outdoors! Outdoor cushions

The below blanket is called Stripy as we go and I love it, but be aware of the different stiches each row requires as the tension is different! Mood blanket

Leaving my mandala crochet table cloth outside, as was the plan all along, one would be forgiven in believing we have had a sunny summer as the vivid colours have been bleached away in just a couple of months!

And for the non crafters of you, below is a photo of sunflowers in my kitchen this morning, it works so well this app on people too but I thought I would spare you my morning not quite awake face...

Hoping you are still here with me and have not 'switched' off from the colossal number of photographs I have shared, see I am obsessive!
Sharing my 5 different photos with you and linking in with the lovely Amy
♥ Happy photographing to you all ♥
Great treatment of your photos. The trouble is, I'd like one of your blankets in all those different colourways!

DeleteI love your creations and your photos. No wonder you're obsessed with that app. I have something similar on my phone that I recently 'discovered'. It is addicting and makes such interesting photos.
ReplyDeleteHave a great weekend
I keep telling the children to be less on electronic devices Sharon but I seem to be creeping up in my usage too and this app is not helping!
DeleteWhat a fabulous app. I can imagine it would become very addictive. Your crochet blanket is especially beautiful too. Have a great weekend. B x

Deleteooh I can see how 'dangerous' this could be! I love the bench ones the best as well as the brilliant idea to back garden cushions in oilcloth - why the hell didn't I think of that?? thanks for visiting my blog I will call here again soon.

Ha! Jo. It's usually me that reads something on someone's blog and I think why why why didn't I think of that. X
DeleteOhhhh dear, terribly tempted, may have to investigate further..........
ReplyDeleteLove all the different effects.
Hee hee hee Annie. That's all I have to say on the matter
DeleteA great collection of makes and a great app to play with too. The effects of the pictures are amazing aren't they. Thank you for joining Five On Friday, I hope you have a great weekend! xx
ReplyDeleteI love all the effects and have spent quite a bit of time playing Amy
DeleteI'm visiting from Amy's Five on Friday. I live in the countryside of Oregon, USA. I live in a 100 year old farmhouse and raise chickens and our son, DIL and 2 grandsons live with us. Great photos you posted! ((hugs)), Teresa :-)
ReplyDeleteWelcome Teresa. I too live in an old house. Dates back to early 1600s. It's wonderful and I love it but it does come with its own quirks, sure you understand what I mean x
DeleteThe App reminds me of the Waterlogue App, which also can be addictive. It is amazing to see how different colors change a pattern...I have scrolled through several times to admire them all :) Happy Weekend! xx
ReplyDeleteOoh Gracie. I need to investigate your app further now. Thanks for the tip
DeleteOh my! You have become addicted to the app. It's good fun. It really seems to capture your bright colours. Thank you so nuch for your very kind email. Have a wonderful weekend. X
ReplyDeleteJules I hope your weekend was the BEST. Little package is in the post to you It's typically Norweigan. X
DeleteOh my I love how the app has created and changed the original photos, they really do make you look at it very differently. I can certainly see I may have to give this a try, thanks for sharing!
