Hello!
This week’s theme is ‘Collecting’ – I can’t wait to see what people decide to do with it! Did you know this is my 2000th post on this blog!? Oh My Gosh! Imagine that. I think I collect blog posts! Here we go….
Words and Pictures is a weekly creative challenge, posting words (or pictures!) to suit a weekly theme. Perhaps you would like to join in? You can sign up below – or you can just keep checking back to see what other people have written or posted! Here are the ‘words and pictures’ archives for your reading pleasure:
- Week 1 – all about School Lunches
- Week 2 – all about Cosy Times
- Week 3 – all about Little Things
- Week 4 – all about Long Drives
- Week 5 – all about Cold Feet
Things you need to know :
Within the theme suggested-
You can post something you’ve written or something you’ve drawn or an image
You don’t have to write beautifully or perfectly.
You don’t have to write a lot.
Also, you don’t need to be an amazing photographer or artist
But rather, just post something about the theme. Words or pictures. Or both. Just have a go. Simple.
Perhaps you might post some distant memories, or a story you made up, or an old photo, maybe tell us something you once read about the theme, write in rhyme, detail a snatch of overheard conversation, you might recount an anecdote… it could be anything really.
Just some words. Or some pictures. Or both.
Like I said, nothing fancy.
Just do it your way.
Just for fun.
Sign up, if you would like to!

Love this theme, it is fun to share my collection. But I couldn’t decide to share Noddy or my paper collection.

About collections: so often they tie generations together. I love that. At Christmas I display my Mom’s angel collection, many of which I gave her as gifts. I hope to send it off to my granddaughter some day.
i love this Pip, it makes my week start on such a positive note,
thank you!
