Krispy Kremes and Pimm's

What a lovely weekend! The sun shone and we took P to KK in Birmingham (she managed to keep her turtle headband on for at least an hr without whipping it off), where she proceeded to eat her way through a dozen donuts (I managed to wrestle them off her at 2 1/2), and then she was treated to some clothes and an ice cream before we came back home on the train and all felt sick from our sugar overdose. Happy days!


I spent saturday in the garden with a friend and we sunbathed and drank Pimm's whilst reading magazines and chatting. Such a hard life!


Oh, and I managed to put some fascinators on Etsy on friday night and saturday morning and sold one straight away to a lady in Seattle which was very exciting. Everyone sends such lovely messages and it's very uplifting to know that there really are some lovely people out there, so I'm getting on with making that for her so I can post ASAP.


I've also been making some new hair clips for P with dragonflies on them which worked out really cute. Show you those soon.

Off to do some hand rolled edges on my sinamay!

Hello :)

Hello, Well here I am, having messed about for ages thinking about what to do about starting a blog. It's going to be a sort of scrap book type affair just detailing what I'm up to craft wise more for me that anyone else as my memory is shot since having my daughter!

Talking about her, we (nanny, grandad, me and P) are going into Birmingham tomorrow on the train. It's a summer holiday expedition to get Krispy Kreme Donuts (for grandad more than P, although he slyly attributes the trip to spoiling the grandchild) and ice cream... (see aforementioned in brackets). So, to get said 5 year old into bed I promised some new clips. Having sorted through my goodybag she came up with some CUTE turtles which she wants on a pink hairband. But, in true parent style I've decided to put them on clips and create a little felt cutie for the headband instead.

I really must start putting my stuff on Etsy... N x
