It's beginning to feel a lot like Christmas


Time has been a little tight over the last few weeks but I have managed to put a few new bits and bobs in my Etsy shop (blatant self promotion I know) just in time for dare I say it....Christmas!




If you look at this picture from a distance it looks as though the cheeks are evil eyes hehehe!

how cute are the little envelopes containing the beads and buttons.

Speaking of the C word, I spotted these at a local antique centre a couple of weekends ago for £4, they will adorn our tree along with our ever growing collection.


It doesn't half feel strange talking about Christmas when we have had such glorious weather recently. I found these photos on the camera that Mr. H took a couple of weeks ago



As you can probably see our garden is seriously lacking in colour at this time of year, (this is something we are working on) but boy you should see it in Spring.

  2. Lovely makes, even though Christmas seems a bit if a scary thought just yet! Love the brooches, I made some last year and they sold well ... I also received one for Christmas from a blogging friend, so may have been made by you or Joe!

    Your garden looks lovely and tidy compared to mine which has been ravaged by the chucks!

    Have a thrifty Thursday!
