More science keyrings!
I've now added two new keyrings to the range: the test tube and the conical flask!!
Still I feel that something isn't right :( they just don't seem to have the professional look that I'm going for...
I think these need more work.

Since it is now October, I have decided that it is acceptable to start Christmassy crafting!
I am now in the process of developing my fruit drying technique! My latest exciting discovery is that you can DO IT IN THE MICROWAVE! Convenient or what?!
Preliminary results shown below:
Main findings:
- They burn if you don't pay attention.
Implications for future research:
- Try other fruits too!
- Find a way to dry them out more as they are still kind of sticky - even the burnt ones
The plan now is to see how long they last before going mouldy!
