Antique Pasta Tools

The factory had a little room with antique tools used to make pasta. Most dated from the 1800's.




 

Meandering Views

Walking along streets near tourist areas, but not in them. The plants below are capers. That's how they grow in the wild.

Joy

This was from an older JCS Christmas issue and is ready to be made into a rectangular ornament. I need to start finishing ornaments for Christmas.

 

Snailed It

My little snail is done. It will go into a hoop soon as a finish.

 

Earrings from Leonora

Leonora gave me these beautiful earrings to match my Marine Ball dress. I wore them (and the dress) on Saturday when we went. They got compliments. Thank you Leonora!

 

View from the Roof

These are views of and from the Gentile pasta factory roof. They use it for lunch breaks and sometimes for drying pasta. You can see how close to the river it is, and directly across from a centuries old drying shed.






 

Little Cheesy Pocket

This was beautiful. Cheese inside, caramel outside...
