i also have some photos of a project i have been working on-we are preparing to re-decorate our dining room and i want bright funky patterns in it, like a tiki bar/hawaiian theme. we bought these plain white chairs for 99p from ebay so with some tester pots of paint i had i decided to have a go at sprucing them up. im just waiting for the hubby to finishing varnishing them now.












i spent nearly all day yesterday in the craft room with maddie-she loved the freedom and discovered my punches and glitter paper (i dont know if this was a good idea), we had the radio on-singing, bowl of sweets and our bottles of juice. i flitted between working on my altered home, family and travel books. i also had chance to update the girls baby record books. here are some of my pages;












my requirements were flowers, bunting, cute posters, fairy lights and garlands. the pompom garland on my shelf was made yesterday-the in-laws bought me the 1 direction mega poster.







here at last are some photos of my craftroom-its still not finished but its getting there and i love it;

sooooo sorry

sorry all-but as a family we have been going through a real tough time at present so that explains the lack of updates, my craft room aka the garage is nearly finished well minus a door. the girls love it and have been putting up their fave posters and drawings on their side of the room. the first thing i did was to start painting flowers on my wall and i loved recreating memo boards from taped areas on the walls.

photos to follow......
