winter wonderland

While thinking of all those poor people stranded in various parts of Europe - that isn't home - due to the shocking storms, I thought I would reminisce about how beautiful the Christmas shop window are - especially at night time (well after dark so any time not between the hours of 9am and 3pm in winter....) all light up and sparkling against the snow and cold.

time? what time?

I am desperate to show some of my recent projects to you all, however, now that the beautiful Freddie has graced us with his presence I don't seem to have the full 24 hours in my day that I had before his arrival to get the pictures done. It is my mission for January - to inundate the blog full of wonderful pictures of my work to date - especially as yesterday I received a brand new iphone which I have never had before! Until then, here are some images of a peony head that fell off its stalk earlier in the week. So pretty.

Ideas and preparations for Christmas

It has been a busy week or two..... but I LOVE the run up to Christmas and organising Christmas presents and decorations. This year I am doing an Alice and Wonderland theme. We are having 30 this year including 9 kiddywinks so it is going to be great fun. Here are a few of the bits that have inspired me so far, some christmassy, some not so, but they are all in the spirit!
