crafty catch up

 I jazzed up the worlds most boring lamp with Decopatch , if you have never tryed it you've got to give it a go its the most fun therapeutic craft ever! it really is just cutting or ripping up special thin paper and gluing it onto a surface or object ! easy peasy .

 This is the finished lamp it has the nicest pinky glow when its switched on . i added a felt flower that came as a kit from Molly Makes magazine .
Ive also done some hand applique onto a cardi , i used a black napkin from primark and a scrap of spotty fabric for the bow.

 This pretty dove calendar was made by Ben at school ,Ive stuck it to the kitchen cupboard so every morning it can cheer me up as i make breakfast for the pixies in the early winter morning gloom.

 It has been super windy where we live in lancashire for the last couple of months so with a gale blowing in under the door i found a use for my stash of bits of left over wool.... a stripey knitted snakey draft excluder ! Meet Sissy (Ben named him!) he was the most fun to make watching all the colours come together to make sissy the super rainbow snake .
