Day 32: Ephemeral

Task: Create something with a material that will dissipate quickly.

I was thinking of working with foam, but then the cold weather came and I realized that if there´s something ephemeral it´s the Finnish summer. It was just a little while ago that the snow melted and the first green leaves appeared and now..


I´m the kind of person who endures winter and lives for the next summer. The autumn breeze can be refreshing but it´s always sad for me as well.


I tried to look normal when we were walking among the dying flowers but I think Steve still sensed the gloom in me. He tried cheering me up a bit by climbing on sticks and talking about all of the upcoming opportunities of wearing my handmade shawls and mittens.


I have to admit, it did work, I felt better. Steve´s got a talent at this kind of stuff. And I bet he would appreciate a nice hand knit cardigan too..
