.....and one for the little boy who lived down the lane




Once again, not very beads or buttons but definitely a sprinkle of glitter.

On my regular Sunday Sparkle day (more on that later), we parked a little out of the village and I was filled with glee when I saw what road we were parked on. Issobelle was tickled by it too.

Hope you're weekend was filled with as much glee as "Duck Lane" was as we walked down it.

T Time

Way back when Little Sister and I did our glitter hand print canvass, I let her loose with a mini canvass and some gold glitter. Naturally (sorry Tiyana!) she messed it up, despite her good intentions, and it became a pink canvass with a funny almost star shaped glitter splodge.

"Waste not, want not!", I hear you cry! Well boys and girls, waste I did not!


I smothered (mmm lovely word is "smothered") the pink part of the canvass in PVA and covered with gold glitter, so the odd looking splodge was a thing of the past. Once this had dried, I roughly covered the edges in black glitter to conceal the pink perimeter and give a bit on an edge to the canvass. An edge on the edge haha.

Then, as a centrepiece, I cut out a card "T", black glittered it and placed it in the middle. Super!

Maybe one day I'll get round to the "iyana" to her "T".

Thanking you Miss Louise K

This morning I opened my fb account and saw the little '1' next to the word 'inbox'. I always feel secretly excited when this happens because you never know who it's going to be from and what it will be. For a split second there is the element of surprise and curiosity and I like this feeling a lot.


It turned out I was right to be excited as it was a lovely message from my best bud's big sister Louise K and she said she enjoyed reading this blog lots, so to Louise K I say "Thank you" and dedicate this little article and picture to you. :)


Thank you for reading.
