birthday banner

My sister-in-law is celebrating her birthday today so we made a little birthday cake banner for her. The idea came from this little tutorial. It was a lot of fun to make and we had all the bits we needed right at home.

favourite reds


It's the last day of the school holidays and Ashley is having a play at her friend Eliza's house today. We chose some favourite red fabrics, cut out some circles, attached them to plain canvas bags with an iron on fusible and tah da!

Instant craft bags for the girls! We filled them up with bits and pieces to keep them busy.

Happy crafting girls!

need a holiday idea?

It's school holidays here and we have been enjoying spending more time together and not rushing around here, there and everywhere.
Today we opened one of these Djeco projects and we spent hours on these beautiful pictures. There are four prints in a box (each so gorgeous, it was difficult to choose a favourite), felt markers, and instructions on how to colour and decorate.

.........all boxed up

........here are our finished products.



.......my favourite.
Our favourite holiday project so far! We found ours here, which I have to say is the best toy store around so if you are looking for something to do, it is definitely worth a visit!
