I decided last Christmas that this years handmade decorations were going to be based on the theme Woodland Christmas. If you know me then you know that that was spectacularly organised of me but I think two years running of fiddling with red and white clay (not a good combination) left me a little traumatised!… Continue reading Woodland Christmas Decorations
Christmas seems to be sneaking up on me this year. Hubby started a new job at the end of August and I’m still finding my feet with the change of routine a change in his work hours has caused.

As of this morning I couldn’t cope with the pain in my head any longer so saw my Doctor. She promptly diagnosed a sinus infection and… Continue reading 3 Santas coloured 3 ways

Well, the weather has turned here and the heating is starting to come on so I have turned my attention to my favourite time of year – Christmas. I am such a big kid.
