That's what we've mostly been doing for the last week or so, so zilch crafting done. Hasn't the weather been gorgeous? We spent a lovely afternoon at the park yesterday where Twiglet finally managed to pedal his bike - hooray!! and we sat and listened to a brass band concert in the sunshine. Unfortunately I forgot to take my camera.So here are a few photos from our patch instead (see above Cowslips also)
Wee Twiglet playing with his sand and water table this afternoon, he WILL grow into his hat!!
Hooray Mr Twigs has finished putting in our water feature, this has been in storage since we moved 3 and a half years ago, I LOVE it and the new plum slate looks fantastic, well done Mr Twigs!
I was also lucky enough to receive some gorgeous postal loveliness in the form of a swap from Emma @ Silverpebble - I promise to get my bando swap out this week Emma, I'm so pants - sorry!!!
Not only pretty buttons, but look at this beautiful bracelet made in my favourite shades, lucky Twiggy!!!
Young Master Twiglet also received a very exciting parcel from Julia @ Marmaladekiss a fantabulous monkey bag and matching towel.
Look at the contents of the bag, Julias yummy, scrummy choccy soap, can you see his little paw top left. He won't use any other soap dahling, a man of taste, young Master Twiglet. Thank you soooooo much Julia, he loves his (what he calls) monkey soap :)

Can you take any more loveliness? you can, well I fancied a 1970s retro treat for dinner this evening, so look what we had - wahey!!! It's just like the 70s again. I will be watching Ashes to Ashes tonight, now if it had been Life on Mars and I'd been wearing a tartan kilt, red wellies and my Starsky and Hutch t.shirt, it would have been the 70s - happy days!!!!

Don't mind if I do! I have a cowslip and did have a pink dicentra, until it disappeared! Love the water feature and Twiglet in his hat, he looks so cute. Lovely treats you both had through the post, I especially like the buttons. Loved Life on Mars, and will catch up with Ashes to Ashes on tape. Ooh I remember Mum always buying Arctic Rolls when I was a kid and serving it with tinned fruit, and occasionally indulging in extra cream! Those were the days. x
ReplyDeleteWell done to Twiglet on pedalling his bike. Lovely cowslips and Dicentra and beautiful swap goodies, love the monkey bag.

Oh, I remember those arctic rolls from when I had tea at my grans. Do they really still make them?
ReplyDeleteI think slightly less crafting when the weather is nice is acceptable, think of all that vitamin D you've been producing.

your water feature looks great! I've just come in from the garden, it's hard not to make the most of the sun

Arctic Roll?!?!?! My goodness, that takes me back a bit. I used to love that.
ReplyDeleteCongratulations to Master Twig on pedalling his bike, and congratulations to you on all that bloggy loveliness - yes, crafty bloggers ARE fabulous.
