I really do not have much to say at the moment so I am just posting a few random photos.
Thanks to Liz http://studioartplay.blogspot.com/ who mentioned these storage boxes I am now able to see all of my pens and pencils at a glance.
I received two very clever ATCs in the swap hosted by Helen over at milliande.
On the left from Louise and the other one is from Loren.
This is the matchbox I made for Deedee also a swap on milliande
Can you guess the prompt.
As I know Lois reads this I will not post a picture of the one I sent her just yet.
I have had dabble at sewing again this last week.

A cuddly toy for my Granddaughter
made from fleece and very very cuddly.
I have arranged for planters to be placed around the village and last week I planted them up with other members of our village improvement team.
You can tell we are coming to the end of summer when you start to see slugs.

The city of Bristol has been taken over by gorillas to celebrate the 175th anniversary of Bristol Zoo. This one is at our local Mall.

They will be auctioned later and I have started saving.
Lastly one of the perks of having a Granddaughter who is rapidly reaching her first birthday is that you can spoil her with pretty things. If Mummy and Daddy like them.
The colours are much nicer than in this photo.

Hi Mary! I was wondering if you were enjoying your pen cubbies! I just love mine. Awesome bear for your grandbaby. I'm sure it will get lots of love from her!
ReplyDeleteThank you Liz ,they are great ! my room is too small for me to photograph them on the shelf altogether. I decided not to stack them so that I still can put my Golden products on top.
ReplyDeleteHi Mary..considering you had nothing to say or show..interesting blog and great images my friend! Haxx
ReplyDeleteMary, I think you are the queen of matchboxes! What you do is amazing!!!I also love your photos. And the sewing...I mean, really, I could talk and talk about how gifted you are. Great work!
ReplyDeleteThank you for your comments , on reflection I feel I owe Louise and Loren an apology, as I posted pictures of their work under the heading
