Colourful happy Christmas cushions

I recently found this rather cute material in Spotlight and decided to make some happy Christmas cushions.

The owl and the birds were my favourites.

I decided on pom poms and giant ric rac for the trims.

I was in haberdashery heaven.

The kids were less than impressed.

They like snap shopping decisions.

Does this print make you happy?

I love turning a pile of this, into 

A pile of these.

It is bucketing rain here.

I think I will have to change my plans for what I am wearing out tonight.

Glitter lips might just wash off in this deluge!

Everybody needs a little browse now and then.

I popped over to Cox & Cox on the weekend for a little browse. 

How cute are these little birds on a wire!

I have a shockingly ugly hat basket.

This would be an improvement.

Too cute, would look great in Miss B's room.

Spotty birds, love them.

I am still liking this lacy tape.

Spools of ribbon.

Doilies for my inner nanna.

Ahhh Cox & Cox, I enjoyed my virtual browse.

If you have any favourite browsing spots, 

please let me know. 

We are supposed to be in for some

wet weather in coming days and I feel some browsing time coming on!

Pretty blue eggs.

There was great excitement in our garden the other day. The kids had found a nest in the fig tree when they were climbing it and looking for a place to build a shelter. (Bear Grylls you have a lot to answer for!)

A bird had been busy nesting in the fig.

Lulu the scruffy wonderdog had been mighty interested in the movement in the tree.

Mr M. doesn't take too kindly to blackbirds eating the fruit on his fruit trees and Lulu wouldn't leave it alone.

So I got to have a little play with the eggs before they visited the compost.

I think they are a perfect shade of blue.
Now I am going to step away from the computer and try to catch up on some housework.
Have a happy Friday.
