My daughter and I made this during the last school holidays . It was a very cheap bottle from GoLO a branch from the yard and little crystals hung from fishing line . It sits on our dining table and is commented on every time someone sees it . The" corregated iron" door in the background is actually my pantry cupboard that I painted as it was a very boring door . We really do live in a very crafty house .

Yes I know I'm a showoff but here is a picture from my driveway too lovely to miss .

I do like to be beside the seaside .... I live near a river which I like even more !

This stitchery with fabric scraps was published in Handmade v25 no12 . Easy Peasy !

Nothing to do with craft at all . I just wanted to show you a bit of our beautiful Murrumbidgee River . Can you believe I'm lucky enough to live here .

Denni from our craft forum let us know she updated her blog twice today obviously the girl has far too much time on her hands but you would never know it judging by all the beautiful work she produces . Anyway I felt guilted to blog .
Clare's Craftroom also designs decorative painting patterns . This lovely girl has always been very popular .
