Yesterday Max and I took one of our brief times out, time we set aside for checking up on each other and on us. As we had a morning, instead of a more normal lunch time, so we didn’t go to Fotheringhay this time; the fields were also full of fog as we set out, […]

4 good things
1. This morning my guest post on Tots100 appeared – thanks for that opportunity Sally 🙂 Never done a guest post before, enjoyed it. 2. Fran and Amelie did their music festival. Amelie got commended and Fran a merit. Fran played really well (they both did) so was a bit sad not to do better. […]
Domestic Servitude or Fit for Life?
About a year ago now there was a period of time where home educators were accused, as a pack, of keeping their children at home for domestic servitude and household chores, rather than for the fairly reasonable purpose of wanting them to have an different and meaningful education that would fit them for life. Apparently […]
Dragons for Sale
I’ve spent a bit of time updating the Etsy shop. I’ve also created a page here where you can find what we currently have for sale under the MadeMerrily craft name, which Fran and I use. There are dragons.… (Felix is probably my best yet, I’m not sure his photo does him justice). And the […]
Code for site badges
A couple of people have asked me for code to put up badges to the shops recently. Am not very clever at these things, but this should do it. <a href=”http://www.craftmerrily.co.uk”><img title=”fb-cm” src=”https://patchofpuddles.co.uk/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2011/03/fb-cm3.jpg” alt=”CraftMerrily” width=”160″ height=”160″ /></a> <a href=”http://www.playmerrilytoys.co.uk”><img src=”https://patchofpuddles.co.uk/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2011/03/fb-pm3.jpg” alt=”PlayMerrily Toys” title=”fb-pm” width=”160″ height=”160″ /></a> I’m not entirely sure how to do it so […]
The God of Things with Plugs
…clearly did not like me choosing a simple hand tool as my favourite gadget. Yesterday I had my phone stolen, at least that is the best explanation I can come up with, since I entered the shop with it and didn’t have it when I got home and no one in the shop has it, […]
Friday Club: A Favourite Gadget
I’m a complete gadget girl; I have a DS (I’m on my 4th!) and an iPhone and a laptop and a Kindle and I love them all and can use up to three of them at any one time. I have a barcode scanner at work and a laminator and a decent camera and a […]
The End of All Things
The one that starts with things endings and ends with things beginning and covers up an awful lot of wondering “how could you?” It has been a horrible week; I’ve cried harder this week than I have all year, mostly bout things I can’t write and partly because anything stressful turns into more tears about […]
Testing a Gizmo.
This is a test post. Nothing to see here.
What is that in the distance?
Our art architecture project is moving on. We’ve started to look at perspective and how to draw in a way that gives shape and depth. First project was to use this idea and draw a simple square house with some elements of perspective to it. The point of the exercise was to get them to […]
