:: this week















This week feels like a it's been a harmony of ying and yang.  I can feel the busyness of Christmas fast approaching.  My deadline for handmade gifts is looming, yet, somehow items are getting made and that list is getting shorter.  It's been busy but calm, crazy but fun.  Make sense?

::  Gumboots - essential foot ware for roaming around long grass in country fields.
::  Beauty - finding fallen feathers
::  Vintage signs - showing the way...
::  Fields of red jewels - going strawberry picking would have to one of my favourite summer activities. Eat, pick, eat some more.  The stunning hues of bright red berries and the freshness that can only come from picking them yourself.
::  My little helper learning about the joys of this delight and carrying her loot back to her basket.
::  After one of my prints were included in the Made It newsletters the orders came in so fast, my head was spinning.  Not ever having to manage so many so quickly, I was lining them all up like soldiers checking, re-checking and labelling them all.
::  Essential packing items restocked.  Twine, and luggage tags.

  2. Not only does it make sense, it's sensible! I think I'm aiming for 'busy but calm' in general, for always. x

  13. Gumboots - of course. I remember someone telling me not so long ago that we call them wellies in the UK. It can be a very silly word sometimes.

  15. Hello to you, oh I miss strawberry picking. One of the things we always did in summers in the UK. Pick some, eat some... But raspberries were always my favourite. And all that jam!
