In between co-ercing Fran into home work stints and taking Amelie to gym and the others to dancing, i did some stuff. I made this a while ago so it got finished off, put on the wall and then blogged over at Fimo-Ideas. After yesterdays fun, i wanted to have a go at something, so […]
It's the torc that counts.
Title especially for my sister 😉 I’ve been reading (now finished them, feeling bereft) a set of book about Boudica by manda Scott. They were really excellent and i got very into them. My British history interests has been extending further and further back through historical fiction and i really enjoyed the whole pagan/celtic/tribal thread. […]
T'was the Day before Christmas.
I wrote this last year but never published it. Funnily enough, the first verse seems almost inappropriate a year on; funny how things can change. Anyway, i hope you enjoy. I’m off on a trip round all the blogs i haven’t had a chance to read in ages now 🙂 Happy Christmas. (With some, not […]
Cleopatra Fimo Models.
Clockwise from left – mine, Fran’s and Amelie’s. Apparently mine wasn’t good enough (so said Maddy) So i tried again. I like this one more but i must admit, the internet is an unforgiving place, i know how rubbish i am at this now, Flickr is not the friend of the amateur! Couple of weeks […]
A little bit of Fimo and a recommendation.
This was Maddy’s first attempt at a tree frog by the rather wonderful author Christi Friesen. I’ve put her 4 books together here – along with being funny, well illustrated, easy to follow and with very pleasing projects, they are also cheap! We’ve had a great time already with her 4 books and you can […]
Are you pulling my string?
Gloss over normals… all went well, signed Fran up to paid version of Meleto; like it like it, like it. Considering doing one of the adult courses myself!!! taught Maddy B,C,D, 2 lots of E and G to go with the A and D on the recorder she already knew. 15 minutes later she has […]
Can't sleep.
Amelie was itchy and woke me up and now i can’t sleep plus i got a lie in this morning after trying to stay up to keep Max and the cricket company and therefore deny myself my full 4 1/2 hours 😕 Cricket… the perfect portrayal of the major differences between most men and most […]
The Phoenix and the Maddy.
Get this bit done first, as it really was the crowning glory of both the last two days for me and Maddy. When Moo and i had our school/no school talk the other night, she asked me to make sure we followed up on all the topics that caught our attention. One thing she has […]
Catching up on some of the stuff that's been done.
As you’ll see from my flickr account, i’ve been taking photos of the majority of the clutter… i mean artistic endeavour… that has been going on recently. Flickr, the eternal dumping ground of the home schooler… EDIT: OMG, i wrote home schooler, what on earth came over me, i mean HOME EDUCATOR!!!! Anyway, in no […]
Maybe this one?
or… or…
