Clothes of all types

Hello my amazing Flickr friends !
Today is a blue day at Color my World Daily and we celebrate clothes pegs (or clothespins if you are in Canada… I had to do a Google search for the theme) at Looking close on Friday.
I had those tiny clothes pegs or clothespins forever, so it is a perfect time to use them in a picture. As a laundry expert (or so I like to think), clothes pegs should have no secrets for me… Unfortunately most of the time I use a dryer so my clothes pegs are rather useless now… But I really loved the colors of those tiny clothes pegs so I bought them… The tiny red clothespin is about 3cm and the other very old one is a normal size clothespin.
I hope you will like it !! See you later my friends !!
Mucho, mucho amor for you all !!
Thank you so much for all your lovely comments / favs/ general support / happy thoughts!! Stay safe and well!!
Have a wonderful Valentine’s Day weekend!
Shot for Smile on Saturday! :-), Heart on Fire
How I made it: The paper heart I learned how to make via a TikTok video. It is held with a clothes pin that I blacked out with a marker. The camera is pointed at a slight up angle to not capture the top of the white votive candle about 2 inches behind the heart. In addition to the candle light, it is front lit from below with my cell phone light for about half the exposure.

While standing still in a traffic jam with our van, I made this clothes peg in love for Smile on Saturday
Maybe you like it ...or maybe not ;-)
Happy Smile on Saturday
A clothes line was a news forecast,
to neighbours passing by.
There were no secrets you could keep,
when clothes were hung to dry.
It also was a friendly link,
for neighbours always knew,
If company had stopped on by,
to spend a night or two.
For then you'd see the fancy sheets
and towels upon the line;
You'd see the company tablecloths,
with intricate design.
The line announced a baby's birth,
to folks who lived inside,
As brand new infant clothes,
were hung so carefully with pride.
The ages of the children,
could so readily be known
By watching how the sizes changed,
you'd know how much they'd grown.
It also told when illness struck,
as extra sheets were hung;
Then night-clothes, and a bathrobe too,
haphazardly were strung.
It said "Gone on vacation now",
when lines hung limp and bare.
It told "We're back!" when full lines sagged,
with not an inch to spare.
New folks in town were scorned upon,
if washing was dingy grey,
As neighbours raised their brows,
and looked disgustedly away.
But clotheslines now are of the past,
for dryers make work less,
Now what goes on inside a home,
is anybodies guess.
I really miss that way of life;
it was a friendly sign,
When neighbours knew each other best,
by what was on the line.

DXB 5068 has had a clean and looks pretty good where the paint is still hanging onto the metal heading 934 north on the mainline above Port Chalmers.
Down below on the branch to the wharves, a DSG shunter is shuffling containers around.

I don't know about you, but pegs were like socks here, they kept disappearing. We use these stainless steel ones these days, they last forever and don't rust. Must be better for the environment I guess.
There is a big bonus with these ones as opposed to the old, coloured plastic ones - you don't have to match the same colour pegs for any given piece of washing, preferably the same colour as the item of washing if possible. You just can't have 2 different coloured pegs on the same piece of washing, it's simply wrong! Or is it just me who is OCD like that? And don't get me started on stacking the dishwasher, suffice to say that if my wife stacks it, I unstack and restack ........... ;)
These guys still aren't lawn mower-proof unfortunately and I suspect that was the fate of the old plastic and wood ones.
Have a great new week everyone!
