WOYWW and Being Clean!

Afternoon lovely Bloggers. Here we are at Wednesday again and we seem to have had several seasons in one week here in Yorkshire. Monday was fabulous, sunny and warm and since then we have had cold, damp, thick gloomy fog. It's so dark I'm having to craft with the light on as you can see on my workdesk this week.


I've been having a play with making some bookmarks I saw the very talented Barbara Gray making some time ago. I've been asked to make some things for my Daughter's school to sell on their Mother's Day stall. The idea is the children can buy things to give to their Mums so everything is priced at around a £1. Obviously they make their cards in school so I've had to rack my brains for something quick and inexpensive and that will appeal to 4-11 year olds. Now there's a task.

I'm just at the experimental stage but think these will work OK. Fingers Crossed!!!

As you can see I've decamped to the dining room table at the minute. I've been up to my eyes in Sheena's Paint Fusion over the last few weeks and as I need loads of space for paints and stuff, I find the table is much easier to spread everything about on. You might be able to spy a lavender propped up waiting to be finished. Anyway, I seem to have taken root as slowly all sorts of other things have gradually crept downstairs.

If you want to see what all the other WOYWW'ers have been up too this week pop over to Julia's lovely blog Stamping Ground and get snooping.

I have also been persuaded to join in with the huge phenomenom which is the new challenge Blog Less Is More. I've been seeing some stunning entries all over Blogland in the last few weeks and so didn't need much arm twisting to get involved and so here's my very first entry for this week's theme, Off The Edge.

Just a little update on the decorated specs at school. They are still a work in progress. I only get two children at a time as they come out of their lessons to do them so we only get about 8 finished in a morning's session. When they are finished and displayed, I'll make sure I photo them and show you as they are gorgeous. In the meantime, here's one of mine that I use to give them some ideas.


Thanks for stopping by and I'd just like to finish by saying that along with the whole of Blogland, my thoughts and prayers are with the people of Japan. The horrors that are all over the TV at the minute are almost beyond belief.
