PoP, thanks to the very lovely JeniWren, has had along overdue make-over. I absolutely love it, though I’ve got to spend a little bit of time tidying up the sidebars and deciding what I want to keep and what I want to trim. Let me know what you think – I’m delighted with it. I […]
Ladybird Love from IKEA
It is of course a well known fact that all households should have a large, inflatable Ladybird – a fact I had previously overlooked and failed to comply with. Luckily for us, IKEA very kindly offered to fill the void and, on our return from holiday, a SAGOSTEN was waiting for us! As IKEA very […]
Money can't buy you love
I know they say that – and it’s true – but nothing beats a birthday where the people who love you go out of their way (and some way out of their pocket) to give you gifts that will bring masses of joy and pleasure. Look at that; 1000’s of hours of reading, knitting, lovely […]
While it is true one should not rely on a spell check…
3 different spellings of one word in so short a notice is just NOT GOOD.
Land of Make Believe (where short is fine!)
We’re not a particularly tall household; I have (well, I did have, I broke it while I was pregnant!) a baby step in the kitchen to get to the top cupboards. Recently, I’ve resorted to sending Fran up on to the worktop to get to things from the highest shelves because when this house was […]
Christmas Pom Pom Wreaths & Pincraft Crafts
And then I’m done. Painted wooden trays using acrylic paint. The idea was for them to paint a design but we ran out of time s I’ve temporarily added wooden shapes – we can finish them another time. This pompom wreath is a work in progress but I really like the idea. It was going […]
Sock Snowmen Christmas Craft
I’m not sure where to credit this idea to, although I got it from my friends Katy and Sarah. It’s great. (When i find a link, I’ll add it 🙂 ) Fill a sports sock to nearly the heel with rice and tie a knot. Then tie a white string (or a scarf) around the […]
Orange Pomanders Christmas Craft
Lovely again. I’ve chucked the rest of the cranberries in there now as well and it smells divine. Here are my two favourite glass bead snowflakes. Enjoyed making these very much.
Christmas Craft Light Tree & Glass Art
I love our light tree; I bought it last year and it amuses me to hang silly things on something otherwise intended to be ‘terribly tasteful’. I had though, this year, added two ornaments, two lovely birds I bought months ago, in memory of Freddie and that other missing child. Hard to believe only 2/3s […]
Very Easy Kids Sweet Making Craft #12
A surprisingly good way of keeping 4 children busy for a short amount of time. Lots of dark chocolate. Sprinkles. Glace Cheries. Mini Marshmallows. Rockie Road Chocolate. Ta-da! (We then added sprinkles). They are better done in blobs as done in one piece you can see marshmallows when you break it – but hey 🙂 […]
