corner view ≈ indispensable

these are some of my handy indispensables i dip into on a daily basis, in no particular order.

crochet hook, did i ever know the hook was gonna make me so overly happy? but it really, really has. it has also become crucial.

fountain pen, picked it up in a shop, it could have been on sale. didn't cost me an arm and a leg, and pink at that! it being a waterman pen, it has lived with me for years now, still growing strong and pretty indispensable.

morning coffee, what can i say but spilling the beans : too right, downright fundamental daily fix.

blogging, ladies & gentlemen! i could never have guessed this was going to take flight as it has. thanks to all of you, wonderful readers, you are making my day {and my every day} capital!

last but not least, these are totally essential... i'd be blind as a bat without my glasses (ànd lenses) at hand, or rather, on my eyes ...
all the indispensability that tania can muster, on jane's corner view, hosted by francesca.

    I also picked my coffee morning, I guess we are not the only ones with this sweet addiction.
    I could have also opt for "words" and for "internet connection". I got so addicted...
    I need to know how to use the 10 hooks I got from my grandmother (but she decided to leave before showing me...).
    Enjoy your indispensable's!

    yes! love everything here. i was thinking, too, that my sewing machine and my le creuset pot are indespensable. the crocheting is so lovely... and i imagine therapeutic. xoxo

    It's funny: I thought about showing the apparati with which I make my morning tea. At least for me glasses are only useful for making distant objets clearer; Iread and compute w/o them.

    First of all, how'd you get your coffee to smile like that? Most important though I love how the tools for your creative expression (including the coffee to fuel it all) are your indispensables.)

    Ah yes, great list! I can't relate to the crochet hook, but the rest I can---most of all the glasses: I couldn't read without them and contacts and surgery aren't options for these ol' eyes.

    Such lovely things. And apart from the coffe, all have something to do with making.

    I hear you on all accounts except the crochet hook. (Blind as a bat, check!) Love what you show with that fountain pen. Leaves me with an itch to start drawing again, which is gooood!

    nadine, these indispensables tell us a lot about you.

    today i was out and my camera battery died. too bad, it had just rained and the window boxes and mosses were especially pretty...

    Kers♥ Love the crochet hook...I remember vaguely, very vaguely how to crochet..can't knit but I might be desirous of taking up the hook.
    Your cursive writing is a work of art!
    I have a big bowl of the most delicious kers on my counter...thinking of you!♥

    Your picture of your pen makes me miss my Lamy. I need to ask my mother-in-law to send me a new one.
