Tick tock....

How does time go soooo quickly, I really do try to keep up with blogging but before I know it a couple of weeks or even months have past, I would like to wish for 3 more hours a night please ( I get more done then when all is quiet), anyway I have been busy doing an art day for our home school group which went really well, knitting lots of hats and I'm doing a gorgeous bright pink mohair scarf for me now on huge size 12 wooden needles - I love them, I have been having a big clear out and putting loads of stuff on free cycle in anticipation of moving, we want to move this year, as soon as possible really, to somewhere more green and country like, I'm trying to be a natural woman in an urban environment and we have finally had all we can take, I want a big garden to grow more stuff in and so the boys can have a wooden den with room to have adventures outdoors, I know how much my fellow would love a room to work in that's not our bedroom too, we rent now so it shouldn't be a big thing moving its just finding a house were having trouble with!
Onto other things... we had a day out in Lytham and I went to one of my favorite shops "Fresh" and saw this amazing dresser. I umed and arghed and bought it!
I adore it so much, the bottom cupboard is full of my sewing things, the drawer is great for art paper and I have little pots of buttons and beads on the shelf, each time I come in the room it makes me smile. I got talking to the lady who owns the shop and I'm going to make some sewn items for her to sell, excited that my stuff is going into another outlet.
I'm also half way through doing a website - oh my god, it has been tedious and takes me ages to do, I keep avoiding it and doing other things instead, I think I'm best setting myself an imaginary deadline and it may make me more motivated, I will be selling handmade items for the home, handmade gifts, organic toiletries, essential oils, fair trade products and natural items, some of my things arrived today so the front room smells lovely, here's a little sneak preview....

Hope everyone had a nice valentines and imbolc, we spent both at home together enjoying each others company xx
