A* BLAST *from the past

I AM SO PROUD OF MYSELF..

Not being a computer whizz I feel when I achieve something new in the computer world I deserve a big pat on the back... I was lucky enough at Christmas to receive the pressie of my dreams an Apple Ipad2 and love using it..Whilst surfing my favourite blogs the other night the blogsy app was highly recomended.. Off to the App store I went and downloaded it..This is my first post made from it.. It has taken me quite a while and while only having some real old past pics on my picasso account I have added a couple..

This great little HARE-PULLTOY which is available as a pattern on my website..

Another ELEPHANT PULL-TOY these little fellows are so so small..

One of my most favourite patterns to date a sweet AMISH DOLL AND HER DOLLY..

I always love making up designs by my favourite artists too..

A really prim little Bear hanger..

Finally my last little RABBIT PIN-KEEP PULLTOY

Well the draft is all done and I must say I am a little nervous clicking the post button but well here goes..fingers crossed now..*~*Thank you all for popping by and Blessings to all*~*

 

 

*FEELS LIKE SPRING IS IN THE AIR*

When the weather gets warmer and the days a bit longer you feel like throwing open the windows and having a good old clean..Well that was me today what a way to spend your day off LOL...whilst in my backyard this morning I found some miniature daffodils starting to bloom so I brought them in to display on my kitchen table..what to put them in I thought just perfect an old heart shaped cake tin...On the window I filled an old basket with some Geraniums which are just starting to grow too..I thought I would share these simple displays with you all...

 I added a couple of my favourite bunnies just to finish them off..

 This week I bought a wonderful pattern from Sandy Holt and couldn't wait to make it up..Another little job on my TODO list this morning so after I had finished doing the clean and playing around with displays I set about making him up and I am thrilled how he has turned out..just so prim perfect and would look fantastic this Easter along side an old basket filled with eggs...gunna have to make one specially for me I think..this one in the pics is offered up on ebay this week..click the link on my side-bar for more pics..

 And just to finish off the day and my feelings of Spring with things starting to grow and the onset of lambing time low and behold one of my sweet guinea pigs finally gave birth to five gorgeous balls of fur..she was around a week overdue so it was a waiting game for us all..In the pic she is giving birth and only 4 little babies present..the boys sat in awe and watched her talking to her to give her encouragement LOL and now they can't wait to pick them up and give them a cuddle..

Oh life is good and I hope it is with you too..*~*Blessings to all*~*

*~*SOME VERY MUCH NEEDED INSPIRATION FROM BLOGLAND*~*

PLUS MY FIRST *EASTER BUNNY* FOR 2012

Just a quick post this week..I had made a few prim little bears this week and after trawling through my little drawers and boxes of treasure (junk) for some charms to add to them I had drawn a blank and they were just sat there all naked on my work station waiting to be adorned..after reading through some of my favourite blogs I had a lightbulb moment..I was cyber visiting with my sweet friend Christine at http://www.preferablyprim.blogspot.com and she was sharing her love of the strawberry fobs or emery's and had made some lovely ones..These were just perfect so today I got right to it and made a few..I added some rusty bits to mine and I hope you agree this is the most perfect little charm for my tiny prim bear...Made from a civil war red print with a green wool top and vintage button to finish it off and grubbied to perfection...

 ♥This little bear is available on ebay this week just click the link on my sidebar to view lots of pics..♥
My next project this week was my first *EASTER BUNNY RABBIT* for 2012

I then added a prim beeswax Easter egg charm with the strong scent of chocolate to go around his neck..just love how this fellow turned out..He is available on ebay this week so pop to the sidebar link for a peek of more pics of him..check out his cheeky little fluffy tail LOL so cute...I am planning a giveaway soon so keeping popping back so you don't miss this...Hope everyone has had a wonderful weekend..*~*Blessings to all*~*
