Busy month - secondhand rose

I have had a really big month. My daughter started Kindergarten....which is a huge adjustment for both of us. My son got accepted into a gifted and talented creative writing course (only one day, but I'm still really proud). We got a puppy.....or we might have already had the puppy, she just got more of a nuisance!

Rosie

You would think that with all the extra time with both kids at school I would be blogging and crafting madly, but strangely enough I have totally ran out of inspiration. I know I used to love blogging so I thought I would start posting pictures of secondhand things every Friday. Most of my belongings are secondhand so I have lots to get through. If anyone out there wants to join in, please leave a comment and I will look at your belongings too.

Yellow Elephant Planter

I wanted to buy some bright ceramic pots as this house has enough light that pot plants don't die as soon as I bring them home, but it is impossible to find ceramic pots in a bright colour around here! So I went to my favourite secondhand shop...The Everything Shop....and found this cool elephant!

New Projects

And finally in an effort to find my crafting mojo I grabbed an old 'blue willow' pattern tray cloth and a small piece of co-ordinating cotton.  The plan is to turn them into something by Thursday next week!
