rattle and roll

A happy customer with his new rattle. Oli is now rolling all around the place when he is released from the stroller so it's rather lovely when he is just happy to sit and play with his new toy!

Originally made for our stall this weekend at Rainbow Pre School, Winmalee but I think these will have to be prototypes as I am trying to get some better wooden rings to use instead of these - these are just curtain rings but haven't been sealed with beeswax or linseed oil and I don't know the type of wood used so best keep them as displays or rattles only!

Great cakes!

OK, so now I'm getting carried away in dreamland. I have so much to do right now but seem to be stuck in my chair wandering aimlessly through some of the most gorgeous blogs out there. This cake is from handmade charlottes blog and I am completely going to steal this idea for the twins 1st birthday next year! Except there will be 2 owls of course! I couldn't convince the boys to have an owl cake, they are far too preoccupied with the idea of superheroes at the moment. G and O will be thrilled I'm sure.

Market Day!

Well somehow all the dolls,owls and clothes were ready by last Saturday and Mim and I managed to get ourselves to the lovely Glenbrook Rotary Markets on time (with a little help from family to mind the children) It was lovely to have such support from family, friends and all the kind visitors to our stall who bought our stock and gave us such wonderful feedback. We are encouraged to keep up the production and are setting up our next stall at our sons' pre-school: Rainbow Open Day on the 11th of September.
