Thingamajigs!

Well I promised to blog at least once a week and I've made it- phew only just!

For a while now I've been trying to finish making some Thingamajigs and I finally did it- just need to find time now to take proper photos of them and list them in the shop! I love the way they all turn out different from one another, like they have their own little personalities :)

I wish I could be a sleepy bunny.....

Gosh it's been a while since I last posted! And I've missed it- and my design work too. It's all been a bit manic my end- with highs and lows. We've had a leak under our kitchen floor :( and as a result our kitchen now resembles a mud hut and on top of that we may have to move out for three weeks for the kitchen to be restored to its former glory. This makes me sad :( because moving out means moving away from the area, making it much more difficult to take Evie to her play groups etc- something I don't really want her to miss out on.

But don't despair as we've had some fun too! We've visited friends in Sheffield, we started baby swimming which was brilliant fun and Evie loved it- she even went under water! We went to Whipsnade for my Birthday, unfortunately we forgot how cold it is when you get up there as its high up in the chilterns and at 3 degrees it felt very chilly indeed so we were a bit wussy and mainly drove around the park in the warmth of the car!

At Baby Swimming!





I've been designing for friends- Christening cards, Wedding Save The Dates and Wedding invites. Desperately need to start my own wedding invitations but at least I've managed to send out our own Save The Dates- I'll show you them in the next post. I've also been frantically trying to get some bits for the wedding organised, cakes, flowers, table decorations. Time is ticking and I haven't even been out to look for a dress!

Anyway with all this busyness I have felt absolutely shattered this week (fingers crossed I'm not coming down with something) I've been going to bed at 9pm and during the day when I pass my two house bunnies who seem to be forever snuggling and snoozing together, I've so wished I could just lie down next to them and have a snooze too! Sigh..........

But no rest for the wicked as they say as I can hear Evie calling me now for her milk so I best dash but I promise from now on I will at least blog once a week! For those of you still visiting me here thanks for being so patient and see you soon :)

Christmas Giveaway!!!

I've reached 50 followers! YAY! Which means that it is indeed time for a Giveaway :) As always I want to say a BIG THANK YOU to all of you who take a little time out of your day to visit me here, it really does mean a lot and keeps me motivated to keep being creative so I can show you more. I still find it so wonderful (and think I always will) when I click on my dashboard and see a new follower :)
This Giveaway feels extra special as it's Thanksgiving day today in America and also because we are sooooo close to Christmas- only four weeks to go- can you believe it? Because I'm starting to feel all Christmassy all you need to do to enter is leave me a comment saying what you love about Christmas. Also it would be great if you wanted to spread the word about my Giveaway, perhaps through your own blogs, Twitter or on Facebook. I'll announce the winner next Friday 3rd Dec and the prize will be not one but any two items from my shops (excluding my originals and Thingamajigs).

Good luck everyone!!

An Autumnal Walk

It's Autumn and I find the colours in nature so inspiring this time of year. Phil and I took "peanut" (AKA Evie ;)) for a long walk recently around a local reserve (once a chalk quarry) and the scenery was beautiful. Evie missed most of it though as she was having a good snooze in her sling (check out the top middle picture), must have been all of the fresh air :)

Back soon with a Christmas giveaway!!!
