Pretty Peonies // Bag of flowers // A new cloud dish from here. // Five candles // Elizabeth's mouse - love the cheese! // A rainbow of flowers // Pictures for the shop - Fat quarters, scissors and thimbles // Roses and Poppy seed pods from the garden.

Hello! Sorry for the blog absence - again! Things have been a little busy around here with the opening of the fabric shop. That and the usual end of year chaos with final shows and what not. The school holidays start soon (one day left here) Though I'm not sure if that will make things easier... or busier. We'll see.  

I'm looking forward to spending some more time with the kids There'll be lots of playing at home in the garden and picnics at the beach. Elizabeth wants to learn how to sew, to make biscuits and to create giant paintings in the garden. I've stocked up on lots of crafting goodies and have a few makes planned - hopefully I'll get to share some of those here.

The boy had his fifth birthday last week. I cant believe how quickly this last year has gone. Do the years get quicker the older they get I wonder?! It certainly seems that way since they've started school. We celebrated the day with a little picnic in the garden with family, but this weekend we will have a 'proper' party with a few of his school friends. An Avengers themed get together with a bouncy castle and face painting. He's muchly excited!

Have a wonderful Summer! xx

    1. Aw thank you so much Gillian, that's really lovely to hear. I'm glad you like them.
      He had a good day thank you, and a lovely party too. I know, why does it always go downhill as soon as the holidays arrive - it was freezing at the beach today! xx
