My husband has just come back from a week in Korea and he bought me back a beautiful little gift in an interesting little box.
With a most gorgeous embroidered toggle.
It was a silk fan to add to my growing collection.
I didn't move very far today. The creative space was confined to the couch with everything on the side table within easy reach. You can see a bit of embroidery, some crochet and my new friend meeting an old friend. I think they were left there from the wee ones playing with them.
And while lolling about on the couch this was the view. Blue, blue skies. A beautiful winter's day.
The parcel was a prize from a guessing competition the little arty crafty crow was having. I was most surprises when I opened the parcel to find one of her lovely creatures in there. I have been eyeing them off for quite some time. I love the coffee/tea stained finish and all the little detail she applies to her dolls. 
She even has an 'A' necklace on which means she belongs to me. 
It has taken me nearly all day to do but finally a parliament of very colourful owls have found their way into my shop. Go take a look if you have a spare minute.
Last night when we went to bed we had big plans for the day. Breakfast of pancakes then a bike ride down along the promenade but during the wee hours of the morning it started raining and hasn't stopped. Big tropical downpours as we get here. So plans had to be changed, we still had pancakes but activities have changed to the indoor type. I am making some owls while the wee ones are playing shopkeepers. And let me tell you the shopkeepers have one hell of a shoe shop. It includes all the lovely shoes we bought ourselves yesterday.
Mine are the red ones. So, so cute too.
I just refashioned a jumpsuit for Martine that I found in the basket of Barbie clothing.
Very cute & very 40's don't you think??
