Monday is Motto Day

If you were looking for a motto, why not this one? I am a sucker for a graphic print and this is in such pretty colours. Available on Folksy from Two for Joy

Introducing Eggy and Peggy, the Prototyposaurus'

Product development is underway for the dinosaur toys and doorstops I plan to make for selling. Stage one was to test out and modify the pattern by making toys for my two girlies. They were instantly named Eggy and Peggy (one is the girlfriend of the other, according to Izzy). When I can source some beans and curtain weights I will start on making some with heavy legs.
In the picture Peggy has still got pins in her eyes, I haven't finalised which buttons I should use for her eyes. She looks pretty belligerant with the big black ones! I am still tinkering with the mouths too, which aren't as neat as I would like.

Holiday Inspiration - Exhibit C - Interiors

While I was in Wales last week I went visiting and had to post up these pictures of the house I stayed at. The lady who lives there is really into vintage and 'shabby chic' stuff and there are lovely ideas to be found all over her house. I particularly loved the combination of modern art, vintage textiles and antique furniture collected over the years. Lush!
