As you will see over the next few blogs, Ania has been taking a more central role in my images, altghough often I have to struggle with her wish to have only socially acceptable 'perfect' images shown iregardless of the power of the image we have produced.

Scarves are generally wound people's necks in a small number of ways, but I thought it is time to reconsider how we do it, bring back some former methods and even use some elements designed for other purposes.

Here I have used belt buckles, bangles and even a hair clip, and I am even considering using a ring for lighter scarves. This is rather pleasing as, like amny other people, my mum had a box of buttons and old belt buckles, very few of which ever got re-used. Here we do not have such a stock, but Poland has small shops selling these little items everywhere - and the plastic belt buckles shown here are plastic, bought from such shops for little money, and being plastic are light enough not to pull down the material.

Similarly to button collections, how many old rings and bangles do you have at home - have you really got the most out of them?
