We've been making... Tibetan inspired bunting in Moroccan coloured fabric leftover from our engagement party yonks ago...
...wrapping little gifts for the owlets in our Brown Owl group, with The Munchkin writing her name on each parcel and decorating with little owl stickers, each one placed in exactly the 'right' place...
...a little Daddy and Munchkin rocket building inspired by Wallace and Grommet...
... a welcome friends missed caller noticeboard inspired by this pin (full post here)...
... and finally a quite big Hessian and fabric soft storage cube finished off with burlap tape handles (from here) When I asked The Munchkin what we should put in it she said "me!" haha, she fits nicely ;)
Actually supposed to be resting as I have a bit of an odd virus causing dizziness and shortness of breath. It seems I have forgotten how, not sure when that happened I used to be as lazy as I could get away with... maybe that was pre child haha!
Yours in semi-restfulness,
Allana xxx
Ps. Thanks to Emily at the Beetle Shack for introducing me to this gorgeous NSW singer - I'm in love! I am such a sucker for that folksy, cruisey Aussie sound... so dreamy...
You have been a busy little bee Allana, take care and try to slow down a little bit. I hate feeling dizzy, yuk.
ReplyDeleteThat doesnt sound like a very good virus at all you poor thing.

The Hessian storage cube is great - exactly the sort of thing I've been thinking about for storing our ever expanding set of toys. Another thing to add to the list of things to make once I get my sewing machine again!
ReplyDeleteIt is very hard to rest with kids isn't it - hope you do get some and get back to your normal self. Love the hessian stack storage cube. I have a pattern for one sitting in my inbox still. Might be a silly question but where did you get the hessian from?
ReplyDeleteLove the notice board.
