SwEeT ChAoS !!

It has been such an eventful week for us...where do I start ?!

We have (yippee yee!) come to a final decision to get a puppy. I must add that it's not something we take lightly. I grew up with dogs, I helped out in kennels when I was 12 in my school holidays & I have missed having a pooch so much! I could bear it no longer & Matt finally agreed! I thought I was hearing things when he said yes. So off we travel on a steep learning curve in to the world of...Beagles!

I have had many a warning about these little tykes but I have every faith that with the right guidance from experienced Beagle peeps, we will learn to train & guide the little one in the right way...watch this space! It will be a few months yet though as timing is everything.

I wanted to challenge myself with a half day Art course in Watercolours today. What a great time I had! This is the (nearly finished) painting...

The subject was rock pooling (just in case you couldn't make it out! lol!) I didn't have time to complete it, so it's a little something to keep me out of mischief! I came away with a set of watercolour paints, a brush & a bucket load of enthusiasm so I reckon it was money well spent.

There is plenty more that has caused sweet chaos this week but I really don't want to bore you with all that nonsense so I will just finish up by telling you that I am spending tomorrow having a clear out. What, I ask you dear readers, follows a good clearout ?? That's right, lots of listings in my shops in the form of a right good old DeStAsH !! So do keep an eye out over the next few days. There will be some wool, some fabric, some felting fluffy stuff & bits n bobs. Can you tell it's a Bank Holiday?! xXx

How exciting getting a puppy, your watercolour is gorgeous, I can see lots of talent there :) and great that you came away feeling inspired. Can't wait to see what you paint next.
Have a fab week x x
