*A FRIENDS FESTIVE HOME*

SARAHS' PRIM HOME

Here in the U.K we have quite a few prim lovers and we are a very close community..some are  talented crafters Maggie at a Primitive saltbox ..Maria at The Cinnamon shack to name a couple (click and take a peek) and make the most gorgeous prims and some are collectors who buy their prims from around the world..I have a very dear friend who lives not far from me around an hours drive..Her name is Sarah and she has a most welcoming home..I visited her this week to exchange our Christmas gifts and have a real ol' natter..She had sent some pics of her displays and I asked her if she would share them with my bloging pals..I know we all love taking a peek inside prim homes... 

Here are a few of her pics..

I hope you all enjoyed a tour of sarahs' prim home this Christmas..Thank you my friend for sharing ♥..

only 13 sleeps till Santa arrives and the excitement is growing in my home..Keep warm everyone a Prim Blessings..♥

*A FEW FESTIVE DISPLAYS*

*~* A little bit more like normal this week*~*

After our the adverse weather we experienced over the last 10 days things seem to be getting back to normal...I did make the wedding celebrations over the weekend and it was a lovely family get together..The happy couple went off to Edinburgh for their honeymoon but blimey they have had real bad snow..Back to what has been going on here..I have added a couple of snowy pics perfect for this time of the year..firstly our backyard at dawn..

More like coffee time now LOL

                                           

                       I had to share these..A neighbours front door and the most perfect icicle tree..

                       My boys were in awe of this and said it would take ages to eat them all HA HA

 Now for a few festive displays...I took the oppotunity whilst snowed in to decorate my home..One of my newest Santas and a window decoration that is on the outside..Greens..pinecones with berries and a flying reindeer..

 My prim pencil tree with all handcrafted decorations from various artists that I have collected over the years and love to add too..

 Love this on my kitchen door..

 My kitchen window..

 Along the hallway..Up the stairs is my barn lounge..

 Bedroom window..My favourite handmade bear..

 Upstairs landing window..

 On the stairs..

 Finally my sitting room..I love this tree and the box..I did a prim swap with Jen of Taylors*Farmhouse*Attic and along with some other fantastic prims she sent this lovely box..I couldn't believe when I opened the lid how much work she had put into it..I love the stitching..Thanx again Jen...

I just need to pull on my wellies and go up the woods for my fresh greens now and I am ready for Santa..Snow is still a bit deep so will have to wait a couple of days though..

Well that is it for now and I am on track with my orders and Christmas shopping..The weather has settled for a bit and things seem back to normal..I hope everyone is well and keeping warm..*~*Blessings*~*

♥SNOW CRAZY♥

*A WALK TO SCHOOL*

Hi to all my blogger friends..I have been going a little bit stir crazy these last few days..we are experiencing some real arctic weather here in the North East of England at the mo..I have been snowed in since last wednesday and the snow is still falling..We have gone back to basics and are baking fresh bread everyday as there is no way of stocking up on supplies..Our nearest village Rothbury which is 8 mile away is even having trouble getting the delivery vans in..The postie hasn't been here since wednesday either and the army are delivering the prescriptions from our local Dr's surgery..well enough of my moaning as there is nothing I can do to make a better of it LOL..

I thought I would share a WALK TO SCHOOL with you..The school in our village is pretty lucky as the headteacher and class assistant both live in the village and there are 6 of the 21 pupils who attend Harbottle First School can walk to get there..

DOWN THE VILLAGE WE GO..

A GLANCE BACK HOME..

 PAST THE CHURCH..

 DOWN TO THE MONUMENT..

 FINALLY UP TO SCHOOL YOU CAN SEE HOW DEEP THE SNOW IS HERE..

 SCHOOL FINISHES AT LUNCH TIME SO OFF THEY GO HOME..

 THE KIDS ARE LOVING IT..

 AND IT IS CHRISTMAS CARD WEATHER AFTER ALL..

I hope you enjoyed our little walk and maybe in a day or two we can get back to normal..Hopefully before saturday as my sis is getting married and I would hate to miss that..Hope everyone is feeling fine and *~*Blessings to all*~*..♥
