During a film watching session on a wet afternoon I sat happily and made this window decoration. No new materials required, just the beads that are too small for the girls to use from their crafting kits which have been filling up a little tub for the whole year.
Threading and twisting.
it has turned into a sort of banshee yodeling now, bear with me a little longer...
Time to go for a walk to the bread shop I think and take in some of this lovely sunshine and frosty vistas.
Ah! families you've gotta love 'em.
Happy Holidays folks! Jo xxx
Sorry about the bickering, but that is siblings for you. I like your honesty about it, sometimes you just don't get along with your sister or brother. I love the heart, my goodness you are so creative. These would be amazing teacher presents next year.

Yep, gotta love t'em. We had a fair bit of bickering yesterday but all is calm today. For now. The heart you made is sweet. Happy Holidays! x
ReplyDeleteMy two are in different rooms at the moment, so all is quiet at the moment. School holidays are so special!! Lovely bead work to catch the sunlight... and relax you on days like this :-)
ReplyDeleteDo they at least let you have some peace in the office??! I certainly hope so!!
ReplyDeleteThose beads are just the right color to hope for an early spring, ha! It looks, though, like you've got plenty of sunshine, though!
Jo, I so admire your distraction-from-bickering craft and am puzzling out how you put it together. You have reminded me of the interesting car rides we had when each child was instructed to look out a different window xx
ReplyDeleteVery pretty :) Bickering is at a minimum here so far but I did have a good shouting match on Christmas Eve. How festive :)
