These past 48 hours it seems like the weather has decided to skip past autumn and head straight for winter! We have been buffeted by gale force winds and soaked by torrential rain. If the wind doesn't go down soon I'm concerned that the leaves will all have been blown off the trees before we have had a chance to properly admire their autumnal hues!
Anyway, this sort of weather is the perfect excuse to stay cosy indoors, drink plenty tea.....
....and crack on with some festive crafting!
Those keys, cars and houses are keyrings and the robins are going to be Christmas tree decorations.
I'm also working on some tree, gingerbread and heart decorations. The floral hearts below are going to be stuffed and filled with some lavender too. Possibly a few with rose petals as well, but it depends what I can find and Hobbycraft.
I was doing all my crafting while sitting on the floor and all the time my little assistant was never too far away. He decided to make a big snowy mountain for his trains out of some lovely soft fleece that I have earmarked for a blanket!
Kirsteen, I wish so bad I could come over and sit and craft with you, you two are so sweet and get me so motivated to start a craft. I love your tea and that tea cozy is adorable! Did you make it?

Thanks Marie. That would be such fun wouldn't it? I didn't make the tea cosy but I wish I could say that I did. It's made with Harris Tweed and keeps my tea really super cosy!
