Footprints in the Snow!

I have been enjoying the recent snowfall, I have not seen snow like this since I was a kid. It's great to see the mountains covered and the world look so bright and clean.

Today I actually ventured out for a walk and I was just totally amazed by my fantastic footprints!

Fluff and Fires

Today has been one of those days when even looking out the window made me shiver.. bbbrrrrr.

I decided to stay safe in front of my stove and work on this new felting mix 'Mother Nature'

So due to many requests a *NEW* colour pack inspired by nature.

Good News

Remember this?

Wonderwool Wales 2009 - my highlights.

Well I got some great news in the post this morning.... I have a stand at Wonderwool Wales 2010

I am so very excited about this : ) I have been visiting this show for the last few years, so it's great to be a bigger part of it this year. It is definately going to mean lots of hard work and prepartion, but I am hoping it will give me the chance to work on some large pieces and also some kits that have been lurking on my 'to do' list forever!!

What a fab start to 2010!

Happy New Year

Wishing you all a fantastic New Year full of fun & frolics, health, wealth & happiness!!!!!

HAPPY CHRISTMAS

Wishing you all a very HAPPY & COLOURFUL CHRISTMAS!!!!!

Christmas Cards

I love making Christmas cards rather than buying them, but boy the time has sped by so fast this year I only managed to make a few.... A lucky few will receive a handmade one and well good old Paperchase is my favourite for printed goods!

Salt Dough & Glitter

Feeling very inspired by Kirstie's Homemade Christmas, I took a break from 'Rainbow Room' business, and my little helper and me started work on our salt dough decorations!

I have never made salt dough before....but was pleasantly surprised by how very easy it is.

1/2 cup of salt

1/2 cup of water

1 cup of flour

Mix well and roll into a ball.........then whatever takes your fancy.

We rolled it out and cut out *Jingle Bells* my daughters favourite cutter.

Then we baked them in the oven on 120 C for a while then put them on the stove for a while until they felt hard!

Then the fun bit.... MESS.... paint and glitter and all lovely colours, these will be dry in time for the arrival of our tree tomorrow : )
