crafting...


Over the last few days, the girls have been busy making things for Mr W's upcoming birthday.  They've also been making friendship bracelets to send to friends back home using this brilliant Klutz book.

It must be said that, much as they love the book and its brilliant designs, they do sometimes rely on their own interpretation, because otherwise they'd be there for ever.  But the hardest thing seems to be persuading them to start off with a sufficiently long piece of embroidery thread that will enable the recipient to put it round their wrist rather than one of their teddies!  Mind you, I remember endlessly cutting bits of ribbon, material and so on far too short as a child, so it must either be a family failing or a rite of passage!

Hope you're all having a lovely week. xx

PS Much as we had delicious food at 1 TwentySix on Friday night, the service wasn't what I would have hoped for, so I don't think we'll be rushing back there.  Shame, as the ambience and setting were lovely.
