time to do



When there's no-one else home it's amazing how much I can achieve (or how much mess one person can create). These boxes had me stumped for awhile, too much dilly-dallying over choosing paper, and then even more painful, making that first cut.... But i did it! Now i'm applying layers of sealer (modge podge) and so far so good. I paint on a layer then fold some washing, another layer, chop veg for soup, another layer, put the kettle on. Meanwhile, i'm trying to plan out some other projects for the next few weeks: Knitting a scarf, small fabric picture, a new cat design for a fabric softie, just for starters. So while there's no people interruptions i'll get on with the crafting in-between the humdrum of keeping house. Hope everyone out there is finding some craft time too! Have seen a lot of action out there in blogland, must be the change of seasons.

What a great idea using gorgeous papers to cover the drawers, they look really great!

I know the feeling when everything goes like a dream and a lot will be finished in no time, simply wonderful. Unfortunately such days are rare, but I try to remember to enjoy them when they happen.
