January 3rd is Festival Of Sleep Day! The idea behind the hashtag holiday is to catch up on any sleep or rest you might have missed during all the hullabaloo of the holidays. Of course, if you're a cat, stacking up your daily sleeping hours is not exactly much of a hardship.

These lovely pincushions are very easy to make, and how you choose to put the fabrics together has a big effect on the result.

It is with both excitement and sadness that we are deep in the throws of moving country at the moment, with the house furniture packed up & floating somewhere in the Atlantic as we answer Africa's beckoning call home! So sadly tomorrow is Katies last day at nursery. I wanted to give her dear teachers something with a bit of "colourful us" thrown in, so after buying a load of pencils and glue at Poundland, heres what we came up with .. stationary cups/ vases made out of pencils! Right now to make these you will need the following ... Wrap a hairband elastic around the tin and start inserting pencils all the way around. Then glue each one together using superglue or a suitable wood glue. Let dry and decorate as you please ... I threw in some flower pots on top to raise the vibrance a notch higher even :)

So happy to be sharing the completed Paper Mache Tree project! It's been years in the making; mainly because I start projects but then get sidetracked which means I have lots of half finished projects around my house. But, sometimes I do complete them! This tree stands in my girls' room. It's made of wire and paper mache, and then painted. I did glue some brown tissue paper on to 'undercoat' the trunk brown so I wouldn't have to paint it as much, and it also doubled up as good bark texture. I love having a creative house. I think of my house like a big art canvas. So much potential. Be gone white walls! (As I keep saying to my husband, who mildly cringes every time I attack a blank wall, what did you expect when you married an artist!?) I attached fairy lights to the roof, and stamped the roof with a home made leaf stamp and pinned up some fabric and paper. The walls are painted with acrylic paints. I just used students acrylics because it's cheaper for a big area. The did the job. I also added some fake plants which really helped with the overall look. So, you can lie down beneath the tree and gaze up into the tree tops... (tweet, tweet) ...and watch the butterflies flit by. Or you can crawl inside to rest or read a favourite book. Watch out! There are already cheeky friends inside ;) Bunnies are drawn to the tree; they love it inside. Especially if you pat them. In fact; lots of little creatures come in and out visiting the tree often. So bring your cushions along and enjoy yourself in the forest.

I hope you enjoyed looking at my tree project! Jules :)

Meine große Tochter ist gerade fünf geworden und hat seit ihrem Geburtstag schlagartig große Lust, all meine Handarbeitsprojekte mitzumachen. Und ja, ich habe super viel Material, tausend Ideen aus der Schule und dem Unterricht. Vieles davon ist aber einfach nicht für die Handkoordination und Motorik einer Fünfjährigen geeignet. Und nun wollte sie also unbedingt auch sticken, mit dem superdünnen Stickgarn, bei dem es mir selbst manchmal schwer fällt, es in das winzige Nadelöhr zu fädeln… Ich habe ihr dann als erstes kleine Idee einfach ein Stück dickes Papier gegeben, wir haben gemeinsam mit der Prickelnadeln Löcher eingepiekst, und dann mit einem relativ dicken Garn und einer großen Nadeln ganz freie Muster eingestickt. Die Idee haben wir nun immer weiter entwickelt, und entstanden sind diese einfachen und dennoch wunderschönen, winterlichen Sterne. Perfekt für die ersten Stick-Versuche, für die gemütlichen dunklen Nachmittage nach der Kita, für
