B I G,  B I G,  B I G

W O O L L Y  S H A W L



I have to admit that I have an addiction..........
I now have got at least 10 of these beautiful babies in my wardrobe and they are B I G !
To my defense though I have to say that they are a bit like shoes, you can`t have too many and also you have to have the right colour to match your clothes. So there is no limit to how many you need really ;0)

I think my favorite a is light blue,lightly marbled one that you can`t find in the shop at the moment but planning on making one soon. I do want to share all the cosyness (that should be a word right?) 


This gorgeous turquoise colour is in the shop though and could be yours if you head over to etsy and snap it up. There might be another colour that you like too......
You can join me in my addiction!


If you would like to make your own shawl grab some yarn and head over to this
treasure trove and start crocheting. But beware, you might not be able to stop......... 


Keep doing what you love
Keep loving yourself

Clay

 
 
Clay day
 
March 1 2016
 
Having some time to sit and squeeze a lump of clay can calm the most stressed person (the difficulty lies in trying to get them to sit down in the first place :0).
We were making Easter decorations and Happy Birthday labels.
 


 
 
We rolled out the clay about three quarters of a cm thick to make them easier to handle. If the clay is too thin it will most certainly stick to the table and that is something you want to avoid. we then used cookie dough cutters to cut out the shapes and leave them to dry.

 

These stars will become Happy Birthday labels to hang onto birthday gifts.


Happy Easter rounds.
They will take a couple of days to dry properly. After a day or so when they look dry turn them over and they will dry a little quicker on the reverse side.

When they are completely dry its time to decorate. really looking forward to that bit. Think I will use both sharpies and paint. Please see late post for finished result.
