Sundays wisdom.............

What's more important, money or family?
This is your choice.

We chose family today....I don't really earn any money so it is an easy choice for me!  

Husband has gone away again and left us for another week. We decided this morning we would go out and enjoy this beautiful winter sunshine before the afternoon of chores and homework. We went and had a coffee and a play on the beach for what seemed like ages but it was really only an hour or so. After we had our fill of sun and dead crabs we wondered back home. Me going to my jobs and play things and the kids to theirs. all in all it was a very pleasant way to finish off the weekend. The kids are now tucked up in bed getting their rest for the week ahead!

P.S That dress the Blythe on the left is wearing I have seen one in person and it is truly fantastic!!!

My creative space.........

  This week I am making a light box. Not too difficult to do just got to have the right size carboard box, some tracing paper and a few other bits and pieces. I am hoping that I will be able to set up some scenes and take some nice photos of my gals.

I suppose time will tell if it will work and I produce some cute shots!

Go and see what else is happening in the creative spaces this week.

Today's words of wisdom...........

Laziness is a lame excuse.


Too true!!

Words of Wisdom from Blythe................

One of my birthday gifts was a set of lovely Blythe Happiness Cards. It is filled with oh so many beautiful pictures and at the bottom of each card is a little line of wisdom. I thought I may give you all a happy quote a day or every other day( depending on my posting ability).................it might give your day a little different perspective. Here's todays-

Everyone has their own preference.
Pink or Blue. You pick!!

I'm back!!!!!............


Oh I am back, I am back...........it has been so long since I visited my little space in blogland. My days are back to just me again. My mum has gone home, the kids are in their normal routine, husband is back from his travels and back at work it is just me and my little auiet house. Oh it is nice but it is strange. My mum was here for 5 weeks and I quite got used to her being in her chair drinking her tea/coffee and creating something. She is a prolific crafter and made us all many things while she was here. The kids usually have a list for her before she even arrives, this year it was petite Blythe clothing. She worked away making all these teeny tiny garments by hand........crazy i know but they are much loved.

In the weeks I was away we had birthday's, sickness, outings and parties. I am trying to think back so I can write something about them all but it seems to be one big blur and I don't really what to bore you with all the itsy-bitsy details. I will just say one of the birthdays was mine and I got some lovely, lovely gifts.......one being the fab Dolly did it earrings above and something that is still on route.

I have promised myself that I will get back into blogging a bit more regularly. I have a few bits and pieces that are on the go and a few things to show so hopefully I will get off my but and show you!!!!
