Making the photo collage kept me entertained last night while my husband was on night shift.

The dolls house got an extention. Now Bella and Max can have their own rooms.

It's not a crystal ball...just some tea light candels in a bowl.

Yesterday arvo the kids and i made a tent in the lougeroom, it was very exciting. They played in it all afternoon and fillled it with their pillows and every cushion in the house.

Aunty H and Aunty L came over for tea so we all squeezed in the tent, all 7 of us, and ate mini pizzas and then chocolate mousse and icecream straight from the tub. Everyone grabbed a spoon and dug in. We even told the kids they could sleep in the tent, but they thought that was a silly idea and said they had to sleep in their own beds. My husband and i couldn't believe it, if we were kids we would have been nagging my mums to let us sleep in there.

Later there was a game of Settlers of Catan, which is the no.1 boardgame around here and has been for over a year now. I wonder if the craze will ever wear off. We even have a Catan torniment for our playgroup fundraiser with a trophy and everything. You can tell from the hands in the photo that my husband and sister are having another argument as usual, thats their favourite thing to do when they see each other. Anyway if your into strategy games, it's the best.

A pillowcase or 4

I have been hand making some Christmas presents over the last few days, which obviously I won't put photos of on here until after Christmas. My little niece's present is coming along nicely, it's so good I would like to keep it myself. Oh i love everything about Christmas, the true story of our saviour Jesus Christ, the trees and decorations, the pretty lights, the loads of party's with friends and family, the presents, and unlike many people i even like the carols playing nonstop everywhere you go, as well as wrapping presents.

'the orange couch'

I can't seem to take non blurry photos on our camera at the moment. Dodge.

I like the idea of drawing ordinary objects or rooms in the home and turning them into pieces of art. I'm also working on a tea cup and saucer drawing.

Matching

My lastest Oppshop bargain...i love that they're a set but each one is different.

Black White Silver

Some scripture canvases I was commissioned to do, they are around a metre long.

Drawings

The tree shape inspired by a cardboard cut on on playschool today. Miss loves it when we draw 'together', she also loves copying what I'm drawing.

2 favourite things - the beach & oppshops

We spent the long weekend on the NSW coast with our huge extended family. Good Times.

I couldn't believe it the other day when i walked into the oppshop and found this leather foot stool. The detail and patterns are so cool. You know when you find something that you love and you know it's going to be one of those things you will keep forever. No matter how many times you move or have a clean out you will always keep it. This foot stool is one of those things.

Also found a great little makeup bag, perfect size for a girl that only has about 5 things in her makeup bag. And a Kids Cake book, the kids looked at it and talked about every cake in the book for a very long time on the very long car trip home.
