As you can imagine the last month (or y’know six months…) has been a bit up in the air getting our little pad tied in. But after a year of in-between living I’m already settling in very nicely to our new home. And am going to finish off the year cooking Christmas dinner for the first time, just for me and boy. Nice.
One of the first things I did when we got the keys was put
up this beautiful Liberty print wreath up on the front door. You like? I’m very
smugly pleased to say – I made this!
I had a little help though…as this was created at the
#SewLiberty event at wonderful Liberty back in November, which I was invited to
by Charlotte from Lotts & Lots and Katy from Apartment Apothecary – the
clever ladies behind the Styling the Seasons project.
On that lovely day the kind folk at Liberty put on lashings
of tea, cake (including my first mince pie of the season) and then came the fabrics
– oh so many beautiful fabrics for me and a wonderful gang of bloggers
(including some old friends, new faces and the gals behind blogs I’ve known and
loved for years) to play with.
The Styling the Season ladies and Liberty’s team invited us
to make something wonderfully festive from the beautiful fabrics and we did
just that! All made even easier with The Homemakery shop’s donation of excellent crafting
products and invaluable advice (for the, ahem, less nimbly finger for us a.k.a.
muggins here).
So using a Homemakery wreath ring, gorgeous gold ribbon, a
truck load of pins and the truly divine (and aptly named) Lucy Daisy C, Tana
Lawn liberty fabric I made this beaut.
It was such a wonderful day and I’m *so* happy to be able to
hang it on my door (just) in time for Christmas. I'm planning to pop a little peek
into the flat someday soon too…once we are box free :)
Merry Christmas!
