It has been a really cold winter this year and today it snowed for about 5 mins......not enough to settle on the ground but so so pretty when it's falling.No wonder my toe's feel like they about to fall off!!



So the shop needed some brightening up on these gloomy days.I made some big hot pink snow flakes to hang and a few pompoms to add some colour to my window this week.






Also made some more pot pourri sachets with some old lace and flowers and bit's and pieces.





And thought I would show you this pretty heart shaped paper weight .Love it!! Have a great week everyone

Face cloth handbags

This week I have been trying to make some things for the shop.
These are my face cloth handbags I made.They have a sweet smelling soap inside.

Love the colours and diffrent idea's you can do with them
This one is a soft green with a bit of lace and pearls
They are going to make a great litlle token gift for someone.
And last week you saw my tea cup candles.....well I though not everyone might not want them with flowers all over them....so I found some cappucinno cups at the local thrift store and scented these one with cappucinno hazelnut yummmm!!!

Also this week I have been helping my girlfriend get ready for her sister's wedding on Sat.It will be in ner garden and we are doing a High Tea afterwards.So we have been busy making decorations,and yummy goodies.Will take some photos to show you if I remember!We are hoping for a nice sunny day so the ceremony can be held under the willow tree.We are going to hang pretties in the tree too.Finger's crossed!!
Catch you next week

Hi everyone....just showing some more of my teacup candles I made for the shop.

Have made them with soy wax and delicious flavours like cappucino, lemon verbena, cottage garden , fig and pear and clean cotton.
Great way to use my odds and ends and customers can bring them back to the shop for a refill.
Have a wonderful day!!
