I am so excited

I had ordered some tickets for Leonardo Da Vinci's exhibition in London. They arrived today, I am really so very excited about it. Some of his art that has never been displayed before will be shown and a new find of his also. I was watching a programme on him yesterday and it is so amazing to know that what a talented man he was. Here is a link to the programme if you are interested to watch. http://www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/episode/b016xjq6/Da_Vinci_The_Lost_Treasure/

I think the presenter gave a great insight into some of his life and paintings. Get a cup of coffee and enjoy it for a while.

After another long silence

Sorry for the long silence again. Hope you all are well and still around. I have not done much creatively. I have been trying to reorganise my work room and space after all the upheaval of redecorating. However I did go for our play day in September to our doll club Fancifulfigures as we were swapping our RR dolls. Here is what I got mine was a summer theme. Didn't they do a lovely job of it. You can see rest of the dolls here.


Then I made these little easy projects which are easy on the hands.

Then one day when I was out looking at some shops I saw a lovely Robin in the christmas decorations section so I decided to make a small one for myself. I love to look at all the Christmas decorations during Christmas time as I get lots of inspiration just looking around. I have more ideas going on in my head which I hope to make.
I notice that my Blogaversary is approaching fast so I have got something up my sleeve so keep tuned.
