Hump Day

We are halfway through the week and I am so looking forward to the weekend. This morning was a particularly cold autumnal morning and according to J it is just going to get colder as we head through the rest of the week.


I will have to start knuckling down and get going with Christmas list as I have 13 weeks and 3 days.  Time to get organised. One of the things I hate about Christmas is the commercialised tack especially some of the cards and wrapping paper.  I found a tutorial the other day which I will be using as part of present wrapping and I think those of us who are slightly disorganised will like it - how to make a present bow from How about Orange. It saved me in a last minute present wrapping emergency.

It is a slightly green option you can use as you can use up magazines.  For those with little ones or not so little ones on a wet day I can see a creche or kindy crafting session here we come.

It looks flash but the tutorial breaks it down into easy steps that even this instruction challenged clot can make one.

  1. Brilliant one, ATC!

    I'm always throwing away kindy paintings etc which I could use for these.

    Love your work!

  2. MMMC It could be one way Kindy paintings become handy. One painting for the wrapping paper and another for the bow.
