It's a beautiful day-hay-hay
Feeling the Friday joy today. Partly about the lovely goodies which landed on my doorstep from Jen of Swallowfield. I have a quick visit to get some frames for the gorgeous prints (yes, plural) she sent me - my favourite of all is called 'I feel lucky'.
It's very appropriate, since my lucky number is indeed 13 and I came to own it via good fortune in a generous giveaway. If you need a little luck of your own, pop over to etsy.
The colours are reminding me of a little project of my own I've been getting underway this morning.
Inside these babies is a cat toy. Yup - one of those jingle bell inside a plastic mesh ball thingummies. Which should mean I have just made a jingling Christmas decoration. We're still at prototype phase, but I did pick up a good few handfuls of the cat toys at the scrapstore when I last visited. There may be more to come. I love the idea of re-purposed ornaments on our tree this year.
Although perhaps not next week, because it is half term. Which is great in that the level of badgering required to get everyone out of the house on time goes down, but there isn't exactly much free time to spare either. Although perhaps papier mache might just be a great project for the boys. If I can handle the mess.

happy weekend!
I love it. Even like that in its unfinished stage.
Was it really messy? I've always wanted to try it with the sproggs.
Hope you have a great weekend and enjoy your badger free mornings next week,

Oh go on, do it. They'll have a great time and you will be honour bound now that you've mentioned it to post the after pictures, won't you?
Have a good week!
I tried to put bells inside of a baby toy once and it didn't work at all.
Thank you!
