Đây chắc là tấm hình đầu tiên, hoặc thứ hai, thứ ba gì đó tôi chụp đèn đường, thật ra cũng không phải là thích kiểu hình như vậy, mà là vì cột đèn là một đường thẳng nên dễ căn bố cục, nhưng cũng không phải lúc nào cũng quá lạm dụng, nó giống kiểu thế này, tôi thường đi đâu đó cho khuây khỏa đầu óc mỗi khi suy nghĩ điều gì đó quá nhiều, hoặc trong đầu có quá nhiều điều để suy nghĩ, người ta hay gọi là gì nhỉ, overthinking, hình như là vậy, thì, dành một chút thời gian để đi lang thang là điều tôi thường làm, nó không giải quyết được vấn đề nhưng nó làm tôi xao lãng đi một chút, ý tôi là mất tập trung để làm rối loạn dòng suy nghĩ đi một chút, nghe thì hơi lạ nhưng tôi muốn bản thân mình nhớ tới những khoảnh khác đó, không hẳn là để không lặp lại, tôi nghĩ là nó giống như việc nhớ rằng bản thân mình từng như thế nào hơn, và thường thì thứ tôi chọn làm vật lưu giữ là cột đèn đường nơi tôi đi qua, chuyện học hành, chuyện gia đình, tình cảm, tương lai,...gì cũng từng có hết, đó là những điều chưa rõ ràng, mù mờ, vì chẳng ai cần suy nghĩ về một thứ quá rõ ràng làm gì cả, những lúc như thế tôi muốn mình giống như là một ánh đèn đường, soi sáng bóng đêm.

We continue our series of posts interviewing "recycled art" crafters & artists. This week, we interviewed Elisabeth Hinze (alias Ronja Lotte) from the blog Nur noch as she is one of our most followed crafters and she bring very good ideas & inspirations to the Recyclart community. If you think you deserve to be featured in the next interview, please, drop us an email.
Tell us a little more about you? Who you are? Where are you from?
My name is Elisabeth Hinze (alias Ronja Lotte) and I am a DIY-Blogger from Hamburg, Germany. Since I was a kid, I never wanted to be anything else then an author and work with books. So I went to the university after finishing school and studied Literature and Linguistics. Well, and then life happened. After only writing academical papers for several years and working in jobs that had nothing to do with writing, I gave up on my dream. Then last year I started my blog www.nur-noch.blogspot.de and what started as a hobby became very quickly my life and the best thing that ever happened to me. At last I am writing and I can even work in my Pyjamas. Life can't get any better.
Why do you craft?
In nature I am very introvert and tend to overthink everything. When I am crafting, I just enjoy working with my hands. Another thing that I really love is to customize my own world. When I need a present for a friend, when I want a new shelf for my flat or a new dress for the summer, I just create it myself – with the materials I want and without the stress of running through a dozen stores.
How did you learn?
My father taught me to use all the essential power tools like drills, electrical saws or my beloved Dremel. When I wanted to learn to sew, I bought the cheapest sewing machine that I could find and for months I worked myself trough every sewing tutorial that I could find on the internet. I also did the same when I taught myself how to use Photoshop or when I started to photograph. I am a big believer in always learning.
Since when are you working with recycled & upcycled materials?
I started when I discovered the whole concept of Upcycling, about two years ago.
What are your can’t-live-without essentials?
My power tools, my photo camera, my cats and my bottle cutter.
How would you describe your style? Are there any crafters/artists/designers that you particularly look up to?
I would describe my style as a "modern vintage" - a fusion between modern Scandinavian design and vintage elements.
How is your workspace, how do you make it inspiring?
I work at home and my workspace is everywhere. I need a lot of light and clearness when I work so I painted my wood floor and the walls white and decluttered my flat.
What sorts of things are inspiring you right now? Where do you look for inspiration?
I always feel inspired by both the traditional Scandinavian country style and the more modern Scandinavian designs of today.
When do you feel the most creative?
At night, when I should sleep.
We live in such a mass-produced, buy-it-now society. Why should people continue to make things by hand?
There are so many benefits to making things by hand that this isn't even a real question for me: Buying a mass-produced item can never be the same than making a unique custom designed item yourself.
What is your favorite medium to work in?
I can't stop working with old bottles and wood. I never get tiered of smelling wood or sanding a perfect glass cut.
What are your tips for people who'd like to start crafting?
Don't try to be perfect and always try something new.
What is your favorite thing to do (other than crafting)?
Shopping for materials and home décor items at flea markets and thrift stores.
Anything else you would like to tell to the "recycling community"?
Right now I am working on my first craft book, together with the talented designer and author Kajsa Kinsella. The book will feature lots of Upcycling projects and I am crossing my fingers that we can find a publisher.
To finish, we've seen that you have an active blog. Since how many times are you blogging? Is that a full-time job or just a hobby to share your personal creations? Any websites that our readers should not miss?
I am blogging since June 2014 and although I started my blog as a hobby, it is now my full time job.
Thanks a lot Elisabeth for this interview! :)
To see all the posts by Elisabeth, it's here.
Summer sun don't feel a thing
Overthink bout everything
When I think of you, you give me chills
Yeah I'm sad but down to fuck
Want you more this ain't enough
When you kiss me boy I don't need pills
Oh hello,
Sorry, I’ve been a bit of an absentee social media friend… ( I think everyone already understands❤️ that feels pretty good)
I just got some new fashion in today (I was so excited I opened it in my driveway to show it off while I was signing for it❤️)
But, it made me realize I never posted these shots of new fashion I got in May of 2021!
(🙀And ANOTHER set of new fashions from December!! I didn’t post the photos for…)
Here are a few shots of Grey (a headless FR16 body) wearing fashion by MonikaFashionDoll on Etsy.
I know why these shots didn’t get posted immediately; I was still sort of trying to “hide” the fact that I was sneaking some larger (illegal!) 16 inch doll bodies into my collection. My only doll collecting “Rule” is keep it all within the same scale…
I found a great loophole with my Mothership Trouble storyline; a shrink-ray accident is the perfect reason to incorporate a 16 inch FR body, to play the headless character Grey.
I did not expect Grey to become one of my favorite dolls, but she took over a little bit!
I’m still trying to stick to my collecting “rule” but I keep finding loopholes for larger ladies to sneak in…
Between my sneaky shenanigans (who am I even hiding things from? Myself??😹) and the general funk of the last few years I feel like all of my feelings of social media FOMO are fading, and with all my regular overthinking I’ve lost my drive to scramble to share everything right away. Plus there is that time-dilation bubble, I’m sure you’ve all experienced it, Yesterday was apparently three weeks ago ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
BOX DATE: 2004
MANUFACTURER: Mattel
DOLLS IN PACK: Stacie, Janet, Lila
BODY TYPE: 2000; molded flower panties; painted tan lines on torso; bend & snap legs
HEAD MOLD: 2004 "Wee 3 Friends"
PERSONAL FUN FACT written by my sister: Shelly got the Splash! Splash! Splash! set in 2004 or 2005. It was our second set of Wee 3 Friends--she got the Party! Party! Party! first. The same night she got the set of dolls, she also got the pool! I'm really glad Shelly was more open to new things than I was as a kid. I didn't want to buy these Wee 3 Friends dolls because I thought it was "wrong" that they made Stacie so much taller and with a big head like a Bratz doll and that these new Stacies couldn't exchange clothes with the old ones. Basically, I was overthinking it--I should just have been glad they brought back Stacie period. I'm glad Shelly got this set, even though I'm the bigger Stacie collector in the family, because I'd be SUPER bummed out we didn't have it if I saw pictures of it online now. This set is absolutely to die for. Shelly named our first Wee 3 Friends Stacie and our Miranda (both Party! Party! Party!) Jade and Sarah after these two clone dolls she played with--because they embodied similar characters--a redhead and a blonde who looked about eleven or twelve--but were Mattel quality. Shelly felt that this Stacie looked even more like her Sarah character should. Personally, I always thought Party! Party! Party! Stacie fit the bill even better because of her fluffy, white-blonde hair. I actually wouldn't say I have a favorite of the two Wee 3 Friends Stacies we got as kids. I think they are equally beautiful, equally full of personality--just very different.
The beauty on the right is a flea market doll from 2011. We got her and a duplicated Lila in a case with Sweet 16 Mary-Kate and Ashley, a Hawaiian Fun Barbie, and a Wizard of Oz Dorothy at a large, outdoor flea market the last summer Dad was alive. Her face paint is in better shape than our childhood doll, though our childhood doll's hair is in better condition. Even though we'd rather have had a duplicated Janet if you'd asked us beforehand, we're actually glad we got the extra Stacie since our old doll's face paint isn't in the best shape. We've had our second Stacie and Lila so long that it's hard to imagine a time when we didn't have them! They are part of the family!
In these times it’s often hard for us to bloom as we would normally in the outside world, a lot of our time is now spent overthinking, worrying and framing of how the world we used to live in and the ways we used to live out our lifestyles - and this is definitely something I’ve been thinking about constantly... But actually when you get down to the really deep way of thinking about it - like plants, we can grow slowly, tenderly and with delicate love and self care in darkness and dark times and also through hard times too.
I battle and Flicker between being on top of everything and feeling pristine to being trapped in a never ending guilt loop and wanting to just be a raggedy mess in my pjs - but something I keep living these never ending repetitive days by is no matter what I feel and how I spend my day - I will still grow - and come out of this taller, stronger and things will be alright in the end.
Let me know how you feel lockdown is making you feel? Are you being a busy bee? Are you being a hibernating hedgehog? How are you all doing?
i had a rough week last week with overthinking and secondguessings,
so after marching bands and christmas floats drifted past my window, i stumbled outside stunned by the 80-degree warmth
rolled up my sleeves
wandered a couple blocks down the street and found this.
nothing like squealing jumping kids to put things back in perspective.
and snow? made out of bubbles? my god, could there be anything better?
I wanted to start a project I could throw myself into, something bright and colorful, uplifting, and something a little more technical and hard edged rather than loose and intuitive. It's a lot more time consuming, but it is a really meditative experience. It's a true escape from rumination and overthinking. We'll see when it's done if it's as interesting as it looks right now. I'll have to practice on something else to do the white shine off the marble spheres. It would be a real shame to get 99% finished and blow it with that kind of goof.
I have been staring at these colors and this layout for so long now, I decided it was time to translate them into a mug rug. Cause you can never have too many, right?
It's not a *literal* interpretation ... but get it? grey background .... blue and orange squares .... no? maybe I'm overthinking it. Oh well, I still like it ;]

So some facts about me
1. The hair on the fourth fig (Qui Gon Jinn hair) is pretty much, exactly my hair style. That's what I look like. Hi.
2. Cop-out answer? I have long hair, though I have had it cut back to just below shoulder length for summer. It's hella wavy.
3. I am 18. In the older side of the flickr community.
4. I also build in minecraft. It's probably my favourite game.
5. I've only recently got into anime. If you don't count watching yugioh as a child.
6. I tend to overthink things. Like a lot. Take my fantasy figbarf for example, I banged up a few figs and then built a whole bloody world surrounding them. It's called Eucalay and it has 3 moons and a whole map I've drawn out and oh dear... This is a problem, it keeps me up at night :p
7. Fantasy is my favourite thing. Of all the things ever.
8. I love reading. That's probably my other biggest hobby that i'm just getting back in to.
9. The five figs are my sigfigs from Flickr: 253rd Star Wars, League of Heroes, me, Ninjago beyond and Hogwarts: A History
Oof that was surprisingly difficult. I'm bored now. Your turn, ask away.
I asked the official photographer (in the photo) what was the significance of the shoe semi circle with flowers in the middle. He replied, well the girls want to run. Duh - sometimes you can overthink things! Graduates in the Temple of literature having their celebratory photo shoot on graduation.

Week 14's theme is Unusual and I was struggling with this and probably overthinking it to be honest.
So this morning I happened to be near to the famed Cardington Hangars where the ill fated R101 was built in 1929.
As for the theme of unusual, it's met (in my mind) by being an unusual pair of buildings from wartime but also that I had unusual access. I was able today to walk almost right up to them due to a new housing area on the land nearby.
Processing was importing into lightroom, lifting the shadows, export to Nik Collections Silver Efex as black and white really suits these industrial type shots I feel. I hope you like.
The Ever-Replaceable Harrison Wells: “Barry, an obscure one off villain that youtubers are gonna read a Wikipedia article on before creating videos overthinking there role and acting like experts. He approaches homeless people on the streets acting as though is about to hug them, but instead phases through them microwaving them!”
Berry Allen: “What’s the matter Cisco, you haven’t chimed in with a pop culture reference and a nickname for the Meta. I was thinking ‘The Comforter’.
Ciscomic-relief Ramon: “Nothing.”
Cisco walks off
Berry Allen: “I’ll go talk to him”
The Ever-Replaceable Harrison Wells: “No time, I need you to search these locations for the Meta”
Berry Allen: “But Cisco’s sad!”
The Ever-Replaceable Harrison Wells: “Its called a bad day, we all have them. You know who are having a worse day, the people the Meta is killing.”
Berry Allen: “But Cisco’s sad!”
The Ever-Replaceable Harrison Wells: “People are dying!”
Berry Allen: “But Cisco’s sad!”
The Ever-Replaceable Harrison Wells: “Barry, I-“
Berry Allen: “DAMMIT HARRY! We Are A CW Show, Every Episode We Need to Bring the Wafer Thin, Cookie Cutter Plot to a halt and talk about our feelings to emotional piano music. That way we can trick the teenage girls watching into thinking we have depth!”
The Ever-Replaceable Harrison Wells: “…F*** This!”
Harry walks off.
Iris ‘Also the Flash’ West-Allen: “Harry seems moody today!”
Berry Allen: “I’ll Go Talk to Him!”
Zodiac Master: “This is a weird alternate universe!”
Another blast of kinetic confidence from the Traverse Theatre foyer, where Dancing Shoes quite literally leaps off the wall. This version of the billboard leans into the show’s infectious energy — one man mid-move, mouth open, body committed, caught in that split second where inhibition has already left the building and joy is driving the choreography.
The star clusters do some heavy lifting here too: praise from The Scotsman, The Stage, The Guardian, and Broadway World framing what audiences clearly recognised — a smart, funny, and unexpectedly moving piece of theatre that treats dance not as spectacle, but as release. Written by Stephen Christopher and Graeme Smith, and directed by Brian Logan, the production proves that you don’t need a grand stage or elaborate costumes to make something land. Sometimes all it takes is a few chairs, a community hall, and the courage to move.
A poster that doubles as a manifesto: put the shoes on, step forward, and don’t overthink it.
Unedited water reflection in Amsterdam. Taken with a Sony HX200V. No editing, no magic tricks, no Photoshop :)
People, including myself, tend to think too much about stuff that does not deserve our time and energy, we spend considerable amounts of our days thinking about something that has already happened, or something that might, or might not happen in the future, leaving almost no room to understand and appreciate the only thing we actually do have and that we can influence, this very moment right NOW!! Few of us can truly say that they live in the present, we are all over the place inside our heads but not where it really matters, right NOW!!! Sometimes I watch videos of Eckhart Tolle and it usually helps me to focus for a while on what's really important, you should try it to, this movie for example is a nice one, give it a go, you've got nothing to loose except all those wasted hours of overthinking :)
P.s. If you in town, go and visit my Solo Expo at the cafe 'Van de Buurt' in the west of Amsterdam :)

First off, I wasn't sure about this day's theme. This is because i never showed my face on flickr and i prefer being in back of the camera. But since i don't want to back down, I decided to try a silhouette shot. So there you guys have it, my 1st attempt at a silhouette shot. Plus I have a couple of tags so lets get on w/ those. (awesome timing, right?)

When I joined 52 Weeks for Dogs I made two vows to myself - don't wait until the last minute and don't overthink things. That being said, here is my first week's photo, a formal portrait using available light (shot in my entry) and edited in Picnik. I used Paint by Numbers texture by dog ma with blending mode set to overlay and fade set to 42%.
And now a little bit about Roger -- He's a 3 year old Standard Poodle (my first) and I met him on the internet (he was listed on Petfinder.com). His previous owner surrendered him to a non-demoninational rescue facility when he was 13 months old. Roger had been underloved and underfed, but that's all behind him now, and he shows no signs of any emotional scars,
He's my heart dog and to know him is to love him!
So- I am officially 36! And, well, you know how each year feels no different and it's just a number and blah blah blah, well actually, 36 feels different!
Somehow I feel I have tipped the balance somehow and it is one of those ages where suddenly you are more unsure about your style and how you fit and how you want to present yourself...it maybe a season-change thing, because all of a sudden it really feels like autumn.
Anyway, I celebrated by mostly travelling to London with Damian, It wasn't too bad of a journey, but we are here for 3 weeks so we did bring a ridiculous amount of luggage :)
Paula bought me a birthday cake- we pretty much devoured it. I will selfie at some point, today has been spent recovering after the day of travel.
Current resolutions: stop overthinking life, click the shutter once and be happy with it.
Current youtube fixation: Sons of Pitches doing 'Wuthering Heights' dramatic and beautiful- worth a watch or several :)
Film, lomo LC-A. I love this because normally I would not. Make sense? No? Lieke is covered in shadows. Normally I'd reject a photo like this. But then I look at the tree, see shadows there, and I see the beauty in this suddenly. The point of doing a film shoot with a model was for me to learn NOT to overthink things. Point and shoot ;)
Light looks a little weird, it's the scanner's fault honestly :/ This picture looks so lovely as I'm holding it here in my hands.
Perhaps view on black?
We're picking up our new (well, secondhand, but it's new to us!) car later! Woot! (Dark turquoise/green-ish Renault Kangoo.)

"YOLO" is something I learned from my little sister. I do agree with the "Carpe Diem" meaning behind it, but I'm not supporting those who yell out YOLO for every impulse they choose to indulge in.
Lately I've been feeling that making life decisions has become harder and harder. It could be that I'm overthinking and thus overburdening myself. But with the many many roles that we play, it's hard to please everyone and not have one party feeling selfish.
I've come to think of it like this: There are no "good" or "bad" decisions. Sure, there are situations where doing one thing is very likely to put you in a bad spot, and thus making it a "bad" decision. But I think that we are the ones who make it so. The choice itself is a more or less neutral act, just a "way". Ultimately, it's what we DO after choosing, that makes the decision "good" or "bad". I wonder if I'm getting my point across...
Taken at the -other- chinese library at Robarts. There are 2, I've taken a photo at one of them before.
[Kodak Portra 400VC @f/2.8]
Everyone, meet Alex Gaskarth.
A poet, a musician, a lyricist, my hero, and the lead singer of All Time Low. I have known about their band since early/mid 2007 and still hate myself for not coming out to any of their shows back then. There's nothing much I can do about it now except complain.
You've probably heard of them by now, right? Six Feet Under the Stars? Dear Maria (Count Me In)? Poppin' Champagne? You get the gist. These four boys from Baltimore are making their way to the top of this music industry and I couldn't be happier. It annoyed me at first to know that they were gaining more and more acknowledgment each day. My friends would frequently ask me about them; questions I would have never thought I'd be answering. They were my secret, my sanctuary, MY band. But don't fret, I've gotten over that. From March to late June, I realized: things were changing. They weren't that little band anymore. They were growing. They were booming. They were living out their teenage dreams.
And my hopes for a picture or a quick conversation anymore were slowly slipping down the tubes.
It took me long enough to understand something: I needed to talk to Alex.
He is the only person I "know" to have such an intellectual and insightful mind at the age of twenty. He is proof that dreams do come true, with the right tools. He was the one who wrote the lyrics I relate to. He taught me growing up was overrated and taking my life seriously is a path I should stow away from. He is the person I look up to more than my parents. He is the reason for who I am. He was the reason I fell in love with this band. He is the reason I still am in love with this band. He is the kind of person I aspire to be....but probably won't.
I won't get into much detail...but basically... I knew ATL's schedule was busy, especially now-a-days. I stayed up on July 25, 2008 until 3 A.M. writing him a strongly-worded two page letter (see bottom left corner of picture).
I ran into him the next day at Warped Tour.
"Hey, Alex, I had so much I wanted to tell you...but I don't think I'll ever get the chance to anymore. So I wrote you a letter."
"Aw, really? Thank you so much! *hugs and stuffs in back pocket*"
Then he left for the acoustic set.
Sad thing is, I'll never know if he read it or not.
I didn't bother asking about it when I saw him two days later. It's been three months now and I still regret it to this day. That letter said everything-- from who I am, how much I appreciate him, why I wanted to speak to him, and why the letter was in purple ink. It would kill me to know he didn't read it. There's a slight chance I'm just overthinking the situation. Boost my self-confidence, please?
...Especially because I've been conjuring up the worst case scenarios....
He forgot about it 10 minutes after I gave it to him. It's somewhere on their bus. It fell out of his pocket. Someone stole it from him.
That's what I keep telling myself. Maybe I'll actually get to ask him at the end of the month. Maybe he'll remember. Maybe he's forgotten. Maybe I'll need to refresh his memory buy printing out another copy.
Maybe he read it........maybe.
When I purchased this camera for recording poker videos, I had no idea I would use it for any other purpose. And yet, here I am recording today's sunrise and capturing the whole setup with a secondary camera.
I've given it a lot of thought about how I can use the footage I'm recording. Whenever I decide on a project, the vast amount of time required for editing puts me off. I've ended up with hundreds of gigabytes of video files filling up hard drives. Not the best investment, neither for my resources nor my time.
Yet, I cannot stop capturing still and moving images.
It's a curse to overthink how you can make the best out of your time. You end up doing nothing productive, not giving one hundred percent of yourself, ultimately losing focus.
And one needs laser focus to succeed.

Shot this photograph without overthinking. Had looked through a camera at this view through the doors in our living room while testing a lens before. The light and the foliage struck me then, how beautiful it was just like that, naturally. I wanted to take a photograph of it sometime, with just the right light.
i wonder about the history of things. i wonder who enjoyed this lovely wicker chair in her glory days. :) i wonder if 'she' graced a large front porch in Central Florida ... if someone sat there on some beautiful spring day, sipping iced tea. 'she' is still quite sturdy ... just in need of some t.l.c. 'she' caught my eye ... caused me to linger ... to think ... and wonder.
when i took these photos for my project over a year ago, I created the images to personify my own thoughts and feelings and yet now some I lack the ability to connect to. Maybe it's because things have changed, or perhaps it's because I've been stuck in bed all day and I'm overthinking too much - who knows, but it's probably all a bit too much for a gloomy monday afternoon.

I've been meaning to make myself one of these for over a year. Decided to use my FMF scraps (sent by wonderful swappers, thank you!) a long time ago, but couldn't decide on a design. I definitely overthink things! Ashley's strip quilts were just the inspiration I needed :) Quilted with warm & natural batting.
An art trade for Shin.
I'm actually horrified of showing this pic. I hope Shin likes it. If he doesn't, I hope he'll give me the chance to redeem myself. Aaaah! I'm overthinking it.
I was playing Street Fighter IV with my brother and I saw all these amazing concept art. I immediately fell in love with the art. Now, look what it has done to mine!
I wanted to draw Van's feet, but I ran out of paper.
Note: Even though everybody knows it, I'll say it anyway. Van is not my character. He is created by the utlra-cool P-Shinobi.
Lately, I've spend a lot of time alone, and when I'm alone I tend to think a lot about everything. Truth is, the more I think about some things, the less I understand them, and that's making me a bit crazy. It's so frustrating when you don't know and you can't understand why the hell something is happening, or why someone is acting differently. I can't help to overthink everything and I wish I could. And because of that I've been in a "state of nostalgia" completely insane, missing things I don't have anymore, wishing things I shouldn't wish and having to deal with the fact that I know that any of it will happen. Meh. I wish I had a turn off button to my brain.
Enough rant. I'll leave you some outtakes of today's photo, hope you enjoy it.

The mind must always be in a state of flowing. Called in fiction simuflow by the Bene Gesserit, Migatte no Goku or Ultra Instinct by Dragon Ball Super. It's a sense of response by instinct and to quit overthinking.
I had this at one point. Responding on instinct. I think it's time I fine tune the instinct and remember what I was
