That's good for a 3............

Hello there, thank you SO much for my lovely birthday wishes, I'll tell you more this weekend :)

I'm sure by now you'll have heard that lovely Tony Hart died last weekend - Oliver Postgate this month too, thank goodness Basil Brush and Sooty and Sweep are still around or I would be one sad Twiggy.
Anyhoo,I used to love his programmes espesh the gallery where he showed childrens art work. I sent mine in, it never got shown but this was rectified when Twiglet and I made a paper plate picture and sent it into CBeebies and was shown by Sid - fame 30 years later!!!!! Of course it was ALL his own work!!!
Anyhoo, it seems that Mr Twigs and I used to shout at the telly whilst watching the gallery when we were v.young , THAT'S GOOD FOR A 6 (or whatever age the child was - does this mean we were destined to marry:) we still do it to be honest so to celebrate Mr Hart and the inspiration he gave many children to get out the tin foil and string. I thought it would be nice to have a couple of pics of Twiglets artworks.
Would be lovely if you'd like to join in and do a THAT'S GOOD FOR A 3,4,5,6,36, whatever, just let us know and we'll take a peek at your blog........

  5. I still shout at the telly and will probably be one of those old ladies who throws their slippers at it when I'm old and grey :)

Well I"ve finally taken the plunge...................

After drooling over many blogs for months now I've decided to finally take the plunge, so here is my new dawn.
Hence the beautiful sunrise above as photographed by Mr Twiggy through our bedroom window. (I'm sure I'll be including a lot of his pics, hope he doesn't expect commision).

I love crafting and have ever since I was a little girl and spent hours playing with my mums button tin (which I've inherited) and amused my self by making dresses for my dollies - even though I'd cut their hair and given them green felt tip highlights. Punk Tiny Tears - I should have marketed this idea !!

Hope you enjoy my work as much as I've enjoyed others who are a daily inspiration to me.

I hope to share favourite blogs, books and anything and everything with you, so enough off my blithering on and watch this space...............................................
