TINGALINGALING !!!

I have my cup of tea and a couple of choccy biscuits , so I am ready to go !!  First of all just want to say thanks to all the new people who have left lovely comments and started following - what a boost to the ego !!
Have not made much new to show you as too busy sewing reindeers, but there are a couple of piccies so here goes,

                                                             

My button wreath.

May have to keep this for myself but intend on making it in red and gingerbread colours.

It has a fabulous rust coloured bell on the end that gives a real christmassy tinkle , my little people adore it , pondering whether to put on folksy ,selling for about £12.00 .

The gingerbreadman saga is coming to a close today , we are a multicultured society which needs to be reflected in all walks of life so here is my third and final gingerbreadperson,

                           

Isn;t he lovely !

I must give a shout out to my crazy but lovely craft market pal - THE ULTIMATE DRIFTER  she makes those cold early mornings much easier to bear with her humour and supportivenes - check her beautiful stuff out here

Well had a quiet week this week , but after 8 months I finally have my car back so I hit the road with vengeance , catching up on all the retail therapy I have missed and purchased the following-

A vase for 50 p ( I am the last of the big spenders),

A red polka dot tablecloth that cost £5.80 -this reaaly cheered me up .

These lovely PLAYING HOUSE  tea plates that came in a lovely box for £2.00 - I am a happy lady.

I have also bought a fantabulous new coffee table for our lounge from a charity shop -but I can't take a photo of it as its still in the car way too heavy for me and my good neighbour to lift so awaiting arrival of big bear to get it out. Its round- no pesky corners to bang my legs on or catch little peoples heads on .

Spent the day yesterday with just one of my little ones as the eldest still in school and the youngest had a bampagan day ( bampa and gran - my eldest started it 8 years ago and its stuck).

Here she is participating in her favourite pastime - eating , she is sooo her mothers daughter!! and yes her eyes do look dark - thanks mum for putting eye shadow on her - I didnt realise until we were out. We went and got her sisters birthday pressies and  had lunch out ,its not often we get time just the two of us so it was a real treat for me and her !

Well must go and feed the troups and admire my new tablecloth whilst cooking, tonight I am going to have a break from decorations and do some needlefelting will post result after weekend  .

HAPPY BIRTHDAY FOR MONDAY TO M MY BIG GIRL , HOPE YOU ENJOY THE HORSERIDING X
