A Personal Goal.......

Some time ago I was encouraged be Lynn over at
To send some of my work up to the Lovely magazine
I can't tell you how long I've drooled over these pages, &
these fantastic, creative artists, in the past...
In the hope or dream... that I may, one day, lay along side
them in this lovely magazine......!!

So I give thanks to Lynn at Sea Angels
Because she believed I could do it....
& kept emailing & nagging, me to send my work in.....

& as you can see from these pages, it paid off...
A very personal Goal, that my work has been published,
& that, I'm just a little bit proud off...
Thanks Lynn xx

Jeniffer's DO......

So Jeniffer's having a bit of a do at her's..... it's a Mother's day/Easter, handmade, vintage, craft, gift, evening....

You know, I can clearly remember us talking & planning this, when we were packing away our Christmas things we'd made, at the last 'DO' there,... & it only feels like a few weeks ago....!!!!!
Annnny-waaaayy...

With this in mind, here's some of my bits & bobs I've been working on...
More pictures to follow, I'm afraid the poxy battery ran out on my camera, so I'll add them when I have 'em....

A BIG THANK YOU...

To everyone for nominating me for lots of Blog awards, I really do appreciate the kind thought, & I don't want to seem ungrateful in anyway...but I'd like to keep my Blog.... 'an award free place'

I hope you understand there's nothing personal in this...
Once again a BIG thanks....

Garlands....

I made these garlands the other day...
I love the chalky finish, & chunky words, along with the 'deckchair' like ribbon, which I have made out of light weight clay...
I think they'll work well tied along a dresser, or along a fire place...
Am working on other words too...
& I'll be adding these to my folksy shop in the next few days....
Feedback always appreciated.... :o)

SPRING is in the air...

When Mr Alfie & I went walking this afternoon, there was a whiff of SPRING in the air... with this in mind, here's a sneaky peek, at some Easter & Spring bits I've been working on, still thinking of ways to package & finish these, but I am happy how they're coming together so far....
Hope you all managed to grab a piece of SPRING today....

Sundays & Mr Alfie........

I was reminded recently by a fellow blogger Sarah
just how good SUNDAYS really are....
Reading the Sunday papers
Walking The Mr Alfie
Toasted Crumpets with Honey
Listenin' to Micheal Ball, closely followed, by E P,
& Paul O Grady on good old.... BBC Radio2
Whilst cooking toad-in-the-hole......
Lighting the wood burner, & snuggling up on the sofa..
(the very best-ist bit)
Nope, it doesn't get much better than that.....
Hope you have a great Sunday people....

Cutting a DASH....


So here's the thing, I changed gyms recently, seemed like a good idea at the time, you know, new year, fresh faces, wanting a change, & to try something new ......
I've been jumping about a bit in a gym, for a number of years now, &
I try to go at least three times a week.
We've just had the Christmas two weeks off, & what with the snow & all, make that three.....
So with great gusto, & new trainers, off to a new gym I go......
Mmm... thought I was quiet a fit gal, turns out, I haven't worked some of my muscles, & muscles I didn't even know I had..!! in a very long time...
Bending to sit on the loo is very interesting, climbing stairs is another fun thing to do, but worst of all bending to pick something up off, of the floor... Oooo...oooo..ooo
But hay hoe,... I get to do it all, all, over again tonight.....
HAPPY DAYS......... :o)
