I just want to say thanks for the kind supportive comments, they were lovely to receive. Rohan and I have broken up, after five happy years together. We had different incompatible dreams, and we'd been ignoring that issue as we were so happy together. We had to finally stop ignoring it and face facts. It was a mutual decision, but a pretty devastating one.
Anyway - no more about that - no more moaning and being depressed - we are here for crafty news!
My lovely friend Anna had a baby about a month ago... these are the handmade gifts I gave her:
Handmade card:
Little knitted duck (did look a bit like a snowman at one point while it was in progress... but think the duck-ness got there in the end!):
A keyring with the initial of the new baby - can be hung in the nursery, or on the changing bag, etc:
And his big sister's initial:
I think they all went down well!
They are gorgeous honey! I love them all but the duck is adorable! Thanks again for my wonderful gifts today I was sooo delighted I can't tell you!

The toy collector faces the dilemma of being labeled a geek, and some other names. But in recent years, with the boom of superhero movies, animated CGI flicks, video games, and also Comic Conventions and CosPlays, geeks are becoming an "in-thing" in the society. Yet, understanding the hobby of collecting toys still isn't easy for many. Some consider collecting toys very juvenile, as toys are most often associated with little children. Others believe toy collecting a waste of funds and time, as collectible toys often cost a lot of money. There are even some who make fun of toy collectors and their passion, just because they are different. Very few in the world truly understand the toy collector and his purpose. And likely, very few know about the great values toy collecting teaches people. خرید اسباب بازی
ReplyDeleteWishing is not a second chance at childhood nor is it about how well you take to maturity. Wishing is welcoming the sense of possibility. Wishing enables us to transcend our limitations and step out of mediocrity. Granted wishes have us leaping from our chair and straying from the world-renowned ensemble of just being human. But there is a magic to wishing. One must wish upon life. friend birthday shayari
