lovely crafty fun

I saw this tutorial over on A Beautiful Mess on Sunday night and decided I wanted to make one. Here is the finished hat:


Now the girls want a hat knitting for them too! So looks like I’m going to be busy knitting for a bit longer yet!!!

On our walk through town yesterday we called in the craft shop to get some polystyrine balls to decorate and found some polystyrine angels too. So when the baby had a nap today, the big girls and I got painting:

And while we were waiting for my Mum’s train to get in we popped into a charity shop to get out of the cold and found this fab teapot for the bargain price of 20p!

    What a crafty woman you are! I have been thinking of cute winter hats, since the wind is making my ears burn. I’m also stacking away craft ideas in my head for when my kids get older and can use paints differently than they do now- which is namely to paint the walls and their clothing.
    Happy Holidays.

    That hat is so lovely! I have only ever managed an Ipod cover which is to be honest rubbish – but i still use it :)
