New Makes!




Just a few things I have made recently but haven't taken pictures of until today

The heart above is made from a Woolworths teatowel, a brand new one, although it has been in my stash for a while, funny, I have lots of fabric like that!


The red heart is made from a wraparound skirt of my friend's . She never wore it, it reminded her of a tablecloth! I also made a bag from this fabric!
Back to my furniture painting now!

The last few weeks

The gorgeous afternoon tea at The Randolph in Oxford! The sandwiches and cakes were ALL delicious! We managed to eat it all, except the 2 pieces of fruit cake that we brought back for our hubbies, see how kind we are! The surroundings were beautiful, it all took place in the Drawing Room.

Afterwards we went for a walk along Little Clarendon Street which has a number of gorgeous shops that we mooched around in.It was a wonderful afternoon out, Thank you Karen for my Birthday treat!



One of my wonderful Birthday gifts from Hubby.I love the colours and it's so beautifully made! He bought it from here http://www.folksy.com/shops/KimMcBirnie




An Anniversary picnic by the river near here www.cotswoldswebsite.com/north-leigh-roman-villa.htm



Recent purchases. A tiny egg cup from the boot, isn't it sweet!

Pretty trinket dish.

My sister kindly thought of me when she saw these gorgeous serviettes in Aldi! I love them and I shall use them on greeting cards and in decoupage!Thanks Sis

The past week has been spent painting my lounge, but I shall show you the piccies in another post!

I'm off to do a spot of crafting now, heart garlands I think!

Hope you all have a great week!
