Jumble bags update.

Jumble bags, now all finished and available now in the Etsy shop.

Leith Mela, speedy fun...

We were a bit strapped for time and harassed, but we went along anyway. We had about an hour, I am not very good at rushing, but we managed to fit quite a bit in as you can see. Music, performers, bouncy slides, the teacup ride (Miss D was very pleased with her orange teacup, which is one of her current favourite colours along with red and green), picking grass to feed to a very tolerant goat, a nature trail challenge and some art work. Phew!! Wish we had longer, but we made the most of a short visit.

Craft room, before and after.

It was a looooong wait and there is still a few odds and ends to finish. But here it is, my own little (and I mean little) space. I'm really pleased with how it's turned out. It's lovely having my machines permanently set up again. 

We've been in our new home for over a year now but it's been hard to find the time for diy of this sort. Well, there was the arrival of little C a few days after we moved in and then the decoration of other rooms which was definitely more of a pressing matter. I still have a few bits and bobs tucked away in other cupboards. It will be nice to know where everything is instead of spending far too long hunting in ten different places by which time my stolen moments of stitchyness have ticked away!

It was a shame to cover up that lovely old floral print though (which we uncovered after scrapping off about four layers of hideous wall paper). Unfortunately it was just too dark, but as it refused to budge, it's still hiding under my new pale grey walls. 

Ahh the joy of having your own dinky little space!!
