Crafts

Long days, sitting by the fireside; time for making things! 

Little 'Dormouse stone', fast asleep in hibernation.

We have been collecting river stone and decided to do some painting!  This is my 'guinea-stone'; based on my real pet guinea-pig 'Pip-squeak'.  

Patchwork Bear

The weather has turned mild but unfortunately rather wet along with it.  However, having to stay indoors has its advantages and prompts you to turn to projects, half finished or planned yet never begun.  I started and amazingly actually finished this little patchwork bear with help and inspiration from my sister who had made one similar recently.


Here are some pictures of her exploring my room. 

Victorian Model House
 There is something so mesmerizing about  miniature houses.  I love setting things up and getting them to look like a real miniature world.  This Victorian house I made from a kit by Dover and the base I designed.  The car I nicked from my brother; it just seemed so perfect!
