Lockdown Life

The world as we know it is forever changed by Covid-19. Little did we know as we celebrated the new year, just how 2020 would play out. Here in New Zealand, we have been on full lockdown apart from essential services. As the company I work for is considered an essential service, I am working from home. It sure gets in the way of my crafting!

My self isolation has actually been in place for a month as I had a week off work sick. Then when our PM shifted the alert level to level 2 it meant that I needed to remain at home as I fall in one of the recommended groups to stay home to stay safe. From March 23 the whole country went in to lockdown. I’ve just realised today that when we go out of level 4 we will still go down to level 3 then level 2 which means I will still need to work from home and restrict movement.  Sigh. All is well however. We have enough supplies and a family member to get supermarket supplies for us.

During March I participated in #31minutesfor31days which is simply crafting for at least 31 minutes every day in March. I got all 20 layouts done from Pretty Rustic #3 which was held in early March. No photos on them yet.  Here’s a small sample:

Last weekend, Scrapping clearly held a 3 day online virtual crop with lots of inspirational videos. I decided to give image transfer go after watching a video by Leanne Jago. My design was also scraplifted from Leanne’s video:

This weekend is a long weekend so I am hoping to get some crafting time in - wish me luck
