So last week i received this lovely parcel of goodies including a lovely letter with a handmade envelope :)


Its just like Christmas with all the lovely little parcels to open!



First up this pretty felt heart cuff.



A lovely felt bookmark.



A little felt hanging heart i just love the stitching all over this makes me think i should get more practice on my sewing machine!



These sweet little wooden birds with little heart wings.



And 2 little painted wooden hearts.



Thankyou Pen i love them all and hope you enjoy the gifts i sent you x

Cake pops

It's my little girls 9th birthday tomorrow so I thought I'd have a go at making cake pops for her to take to school instead of a normal cake.

They're quiet easy to make apart from mine falling apart when I put the sticks in :( luckily I managed to get enough made without them all falling apart ..... I'm really not good with cake making I should stick to just eating them teehee ;0

Anyway the finished result was ok and they taste yummy so hope the kids will enjoy them.

Well Hello June.......

I really can't believe it's June already what on earth happened to may?

I've a busy month ahead as its Katie's birthday in a couple of weeks, we decided no party this year as its far too expensive so we will just take her and 2 friends out to the adventure park.

I'm not a very happy bunny today as when I woke up this morning one of my front teeth broke its only a little bit but I'm gonna have to go to the dentist next week and see what needs doing but I'm dreading how much it's gonna cost we just don't have the money at the moment so not sure how I'll find the cash ...... Sell a kidney? Lol
I've odd problems with my teeth since I was pregnant with Katie they just all of a sudden crumble even my dentist can't understand it but i will eventually end up having to have the screw in falsies eeeeeeek *prays for a lotto win"

I'm not gonna choose a theme for this month as I know I won't get around to making much as I'll be busy with everything else.

Well I hope you all have a wonderful jubilee weekend :) no plans here as hubby has to work :(

Will leave you with a pic of Katie feeding chooks last weekend ;)
