I’m harvesting Christmas images from magazines and catalogs while I watch tv.




HO! HO! HO!
Tonight, I finished harvesting this 2022 Hammacher Schlemmer Christmas catalog.

The Hammacher Schlemmer is one of the absolute best for harvesting images! The catalog can be requested for free! I got this many images:

I have sorted them by size and shape. One category is words. I store them in different size baggies.
There was something usable on every single page, including the covers.

What a great choo choo on the front!

Some of the ideas in this issue were very dated, and it took me a while to find a date of publication. 2003. I still like this idea, though:

I just realized I had another finish. I got some ribbon yarn in the mail to Patricia Carmichael (PMartist Studio) to use in her current mixed media project. I wish I’d had enough sense to take a photograph!

It’s hard to catch sparkle on camera, but this silver washi tape is dazzling! I almost forgot about my tapes.
