We love string!

"Can I have some string Mum?" is a constant cry in our house. We love our string here. The usual reply is "You can have some out of the drawer, but not from the bowl please".



























all photos by me. 

I just love its colour and texture and all round usefulness. 

Stay tuned for the easy peasy, slightly slimey, string ball tutorial.

    Hi Deb... blog looks fabulous... and a belated welcome home. Must be nice to back in a way... looking forward to your string tutorial although I am not sure a string ball would last long in this house! A x

    Your string balls look great Deb! I will look forward to the tutorial. It is the same in this house with the string.... Don't take that string, get the green stuff in the draw!!! ;-)

    I am so intrigued, Deb. Fill us in on all the uses for string in your house! The pixies haven't asked me for any yet so I'd better get prepared. Looking forward to the tutorial. Fab photos and I think I spotted a watermark on one of them - are you also dabbling in that detail? Do share! J x

    I love this tutorial. We have a huge bag of yarn, all colors, that we got recently while thrifting. We'll definitely be trying this, especially since I think my kids would love to help, though I"m not sure where to find celmix? Do you recommend anything else?
