No time.
I hope everybody had a happy Easter. We had a very busy time, with lots of pains in the backsides relatives visiting ; )
We planned to do lots of crafting, but only managed to knock out these two
One for Billy, one for Molly. Everybody else got a bog-standard chocolate egg from Sainsbury's.
There just aren't enough crafting hours in the day - right ?
I'm on strike today, and have given myself some computer time.
A few things that have caught my eye, can be found...
here click on the gallery and then the collage links
here click on gallery
here click on gallery
and here click on handmade.
And now I'm going to lock the children in a cupboard and do some crafting.
Really.
I love the top easter bag.
My horrors and I managed to make many members of the Gingerbread Man Family, and then proceeded to scoff the lot in about 30 minutes!

Just make sure to push a bit of bread and water under the cupboard door from time to time. :)

A hah! You see, this is why us newer parents need to listen to you more experienced ones. The cupboard, of course, that's how I get more work done!
(love the baskets very much)

Your talent for cute creations is just blowing me away, how you incubate your ideas and execute them with such wonderful translation is just so inspiring. Thank you Molly Chicken!

Oh those chickie baskets are so sweet - what lucky kiddos you have! Can't wait to spend more time looking at your links, but as I have 3 little girls behind me begging to go to the playground, that will have to wait.
ps I hope your relatives don't read your blog!

Those baskets are very cute and I like the closet idea!!! Thanks for all the great links.
Posted by:Sarah Jane | April 20, 2006 at 09:34 PM
Those baskets are unbelievably adorable! I really like the shape of the top one, and I also like the simplicity of the bottom one - such a plain fiber, but it magically transforms with just a few additions. Are the beaks felted?
