You have all heard of the gingerbread house, well now we have the Smartie house.
I feel this isolation is getting to me. ha ha.
Do you remember drawing pictures like this when you were in primary school? I think I am entering my second childhood. Either that or I am ready to qualify for the funny farm.
I really need to get out more even if it is only for a walk on our local beach. Haven't been more than 5 km from home for over 2 months now.
I am now singing the theme tune to Play School and looking for Little Ted and Hamble......your Smarties pictures are so much fun. Love art you can eat!
Lovely use of those Smarties. Keeps you back from swallowing them down in a jiffy. Lovely colours. I have convinced my wife to come for a walk with me every morning for just 20 minutes, will increase the distance every day. I go again in the afternoon by myself and at increased speed.
These Smartie creations are great fun! In the 1980s I used to plan Smartie production for Rowntrees, so this brings back some super memories for me. Fav!
What a fun idea, creating scenes with candies. Each picture is definitely going to take some time to create; but hey, that's what we do for the sake of art.
No, you're not ready for the funny farm but you are just enjoying the art of letting your inner child express herself through your photography. (o: This is very cute!
@pusspup Ha ha, no you can't get in if you eat the door it just completely collapsed like the little pigs house.
@casablanca@carole_sandford With so many memories of Play School and Blue Peter it is no wonder I didn't leave my childhood behind.
@ethelperry So glad you were able to see a real human again, were you able to have a chat. It must be very lonely being on your own and not able to catch up with family.
@sangwann Glad you are able to convince your wife to go out for walks with you.
@pattyblue Better not buy Matchmakers to make stick people, I am still wading my way through Smarties.
@fishers Maybe if I wrote to Rowntree they would use my creations in their advertising.
@mzzhope Yes I remember the little pegs to make pictures. I used to love playing with those when I was a child. That is probably where I got the idea from deep in my memory.
BTW Today, I saw my first human for a week. Face time once and some nice phone calls helped a lot.

@robz I had a fun time
@helenhall Never thought of a beach scene. Maybe when I buy more smarties I will give it a go.
@stray_shooter It was fun eating them too.
