A weekend of mess and sun .

Work on project Little Ethel continues and I am determined to wait until it is all finished until I reveal . It has been a relatively quiet weekend here , today has not been the best day children painting by 9am then playdough = one trashed kitchen = one exasperated  mother .

I did appreciate the cold crisp weather we had and we did escape to the park,


Time for scooting , time for swinging and sliding and time for doggy rolling in fox doodoo !!! I had already decided to avoid our usual woodland walk as I couldnt face washing off another load of mud so instead I end up washing off stinky stuff - I give up !!!  The eldest insisited on scooting and holding the dog so she could be towed but this inevitably ended up with her flat on her face - no injuries thankfully .

No recent makes to show you yet but I do have a little collage of some from the past year while I have been away from blogland





Hope you like them .

The christmas decorations may be put away finally but I thought I would give you a little peek at  my favourite christmas pressies


The book at the top is Dottie Angel , she can be found and the pictures are taken from here , the book , the blog are just beautiful , very inspiring , very entertaining - quite peachy !

The birdie brooch is from here, bought when we went here .
The lovely necklace can be found here.
The Mary Berry book can be found here

Heres to a good week for us all xxxx

  3. Your Sunday sounds a bit like my day today! what's worse is that our dog doesn't appear to be tired at all despite running madly round and round the beach while we spin around calling him! I love your year of makes and you should definitely give embroidery a go, it's a nice pick up for a minute until you're interrupted sort of project! I am most envious of your dottie angel book
