the one about the flowers and the red shoes...






a beautiful mini candlestick made by the very talented Victoria Delany it's beautiful, and holds a little tea light in it as well as a long candle...go and check out her website...she is a super dooper talented crafty lady...



recent makes: more apple thingy ma jigs to give to teachers tomorrow...would you believe the humble Golden Delicious apples seems to be out of favour...i usually get my fruit at the supermarket with my main weekly shop,(please don't lecture me on buying local produce...) but i wanted to get a few apples the other day, so popped into the green grocers and was more or less laughed out the shop when i asked where the golden delicious apples were...he said "we haven't had those for ages, not much call for them these days" WHAT...i was brought up on Golden Delicious apples....so i tried the stalls on the market...again...no Golden Delicious....whats going on?!?!?!

 



red shoooooooes...i like red shoes...and so does Miss T...choosing to wear mine on top of her school shoes! My eldest told me i had too many shoes the other day, so i had a bit of a sort out and realised that almost all my shoes are red...

green heaven....

well...we're back from our fantastic house swap with our friends in Hampton...it was a lovely holiday, and great to stay in unfamiliar yet familiar surroundings!

warning...this post is a bit 'green photo' heavy due to 2 brilliant trips to Kew Gardens...

let the green commence...





































phew...all that green...just lovely!!

while we were away i managed to finish my pompom rug (pic to follow) in readiness for the Clutter City Craft Fair this Saturday...


and i've managed (inbetween cake making...park trips...mirangue making...hama beading...cooking dinner/tea/snacks...catching up with friends...food shopping etc etc etc) to make some lovely cushions for Saturday...again pics to follow

just a thought:

i'm always amazed when i'm in bed at night and i think about the day just gone and how much i have squeezed in...it's important to me to have a bit of time to do what i like in the evenings, and with the small people on holiday and going to bed a little later these days, i can often be found sat in bed crocheting at midnight and beyond...(ever the romantic eh?!)
