Winding down and my 'not so little' man....

Some of you may have noticed my irregular blogging lately. I'm afraid it will be like this for a while as the house move will be upon is soon so I really need to start getting organised and crafting and blogging will be taking a bit of a back seat for the time being. I have been very ruthless and thinned out my crafting goodies with a view to selling lots of my 'stash'. For those of you who live close by you are very welcome to pop in and see if anything is of interest to you. I think I will need a few 'sales' as I really do have so much to get rid of. The first date is Wednesday 27th April from 2pm till 9pm. I will post a few photos soon so you have an idea what there is available.


This was the litle booklet we made in class last week. The sentiment and image are by Crafty Individuals.

The booklet opens to reveal pockets for either tags or photo's.
Sunday saw the Acetate Book class at Grimsby Crafts. I felt a bit redundant when the ladies were colouring.......so very quiet, it was unreal!


Before I go, something very special......... well to me any way. My lovely little Grandson 'JJ'.


Here he is with Paul and 'Storm' having fun on the concrete base of our soon to be built garage. One day I will see Paul in something other than his scruffy work gear! Bless him, he has worked so hard on the bungalow.


Aw, he was listening to the birds...........Hell, he just melts my heart!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


In fact I can honestly say he is one of the most precious things in my life......

Wow what beautiful big eyes he has and only you can truly understand how precious hearing the birds is.
Thankyou so much for welcoming me back. Hopefully we are all on the mend physically and mentally and I am looking forward to a little of my own(crafting)time in between work and school days.
It was lovely to see you in the shop the other week.
