It reads " SPECIAL OFFER"
If you buy a dog, you get a FREE happy, bored-free child.
Buy now while stocks last !
Then there is a drawing of a dogs bowl with food in, and a cow! Yes, a cow! -This was stuck on our bedroom door by our youngest (11yrs) daughter who -as you can see- is desperate for a dog! I thought it was so cute, I had to blog it! The cow did start off as a dog, but it went wrong!

All my crafting stash is packed ready for moving ; so after having a very boring, not-much-crafting-going-on kinda few weeks, I went and bought some secondhand fabric to recycle and make a few crocheted baskets and trivets :0)
This little basket has got two handles onthe sides. I love the blue that comes through.
Oh, the feel of the scissors cutting through the fabric, the feel of the hook as you're busy crocheting a way..... I'm either going to have to dig out some of my stash, or get to the shop...

The sun was shining beautifully on my camelieas last week, so I couldn't resist taking a few shots of the sun shining on the centres of the flowers. It always makes me think it's got a light shining from the centre of the flower when I take photos like these.
Sorry my posts have been a bit 'hit and miss'. Unfortunately, I do have very 'bizzydays' :).
But, I will try and make more of an effort now the school run is again well under way until July! Enjoy the sunshine ladies..
Speak to you soon ..
That special offer poster is absolutely precious! I hope she will indeed get her cow-dog one day soon. Thank you so much for sharing that- it has cheered my whole day!
ReplyDeleteI, too, love the blue peeking out of your basket. And those camellias are breathtaking. Have a wonderful day :)
I know what you mean by the feel of the fabric, the scissors, and the hook. Sometimes I lament the end of a project--simply because it's over.
ReplyDeleteLove the poster--but beware if you cave--the thrill of a new pet will wear off. I know, I'm such a kill joy! Forgive me.
Love the special offer! So funny! Your little baskets are so good and clever too. I really like those, as I do your beautiful photos of the camelia, so pretty! suzie xxx
ReplyDeleteThankyou so much for your comments..they really make my day :0)
ReplyDeleteMy youngest has wanted a dog for about 7 (yes 7!) years now, since she was 4! (we're not really mean, it's just that we live in a privately rented property, and no pets allowed!)so hopefully with this move coming up, we may get somewhere that will allow us to get a dog...once we have persuaded my husband...lol
My eldest 2 aren't that bothered, but my youngest daughters wish has been persistent...
how sweet! perhaps he wants a dog as big as a cow ! my next door neighbour's dog resembles a small donkey !
ReplyDeletethanks for your sweet messages - it's nice to be home but I did have a really good catch up with my big bruv
Awwww how sweet of your daughter, you are a licky mum!
ReplyDeleteI think your photos are lovely too.
