well...hasn't it been a while since i have been on here....
my excuse is...pure busyness...
oh and....
* a son who tripped up the doorstep and ended up having his head injury glued at the walk-in centre
* a daughter who sliced her toe in the sand in the park...probably on a piece of glass
* a husband who was driven into while driving to work...
and the best of all...
* a son who jumped off a swing in the park...dislocated his left elbow and ended up in theatre that night to straighten it and was in plaster for nearly 4 weeks....
those who know me well will say this is just a normal few weeks activity for us lot!!!
here is a before and after shot of a cupboard we found in a local antique place (posh charity shop actually...but i wouldn't tell the owners that)....it was priced at £90 and the guy said we could have it for £40 if we took it away that day...to be honest it did stick out a mile...and we did have grand plans for it...as you can see...it is now wearing a Farrow & Ball jacket and looks rather nice....
i have been doing a spot of crochet too recently...a few hats to sell at the Christmas Craft Fair...we won't be here this Christmas but thats a whole other post...so thats why i am trying to get stock built up now for my friend who is going to man my stall...
(couldn't help but do a pretty pumpkin!!!!)
and my 2 little bobbinoggs turned 5 on Saturday...birthday craziness...and big smiles!!!
Kermit looks how i felt at the end of last weekend...
Wow. That is some action filled weeks! Hope everyone is ok now!
ReplyDeleteYou've got to have a pretty pumpkin now and then and love the bobble hats too! Such funky bright colours!
Oh no..so many mishaps. Hope they stop for a while now. I am seriously jealous of the cupboard. Age five birthday...yes, I feel exhausted just thinking about that. Love the hats by the way, so bright and cute. x
ReplyDeleteHi Caroline,
ReplyDeleteThank you so so much for being my first follower. You can't imagine how you made my day.
You certainly sound very busy and I did laugh at Kermit. Love the crochet hats and I'm in awe at how you found time to make them.

LOVE those hats Caroline! Fabulous colour choices, must make one for my little chap. Hope your clan is healing nicely, what a run of bad luck. But excellent work on the cabinet!
