I received a wonderful swap package from Claire as part of the Robot swap. She made three little robots out of the softest fabric you can imagine. Here they are sitting on my vintage bureau.
They remind me of weebles - you must remember them - “weebles wobble but they don’t fall down!” Thanks Claire. We love them and they’ll look great on my toy shelf.
I was very happy to read that Cath Kidston is bringing out a new craft book called Make, found via The Lark. Luckily we’ll be back from our honeymoon by the time it’s released on the 17th October so I won’t have to cut the holiday short!
I’ve spent the last few evenings putting the finishing touches to my swap parcel for the robot swap. It was so wonderful to think about something other than our wedding…
Here is a little taster of what will be sent on its way to my swap partner tomorrow.
robot surprise
We’ve been incredibly busy organising our wedding over the last few weeks. We set a date, booked a Church and reception venue, and finally ordered the invites and associated stationery. Who knew that getting married could be so exhausting? Practically every day a decision has to be made. We’ve picked a great theme to hold the day together and we’ve roped in my mum to help us source objects. All will be revealed!
I couldn’t help but play with this, found here.
And finally (bit of a long post for me today!) I’ve found a new swap to make a robot. I really want to join in but just don’t know if I should be committing to anything other than our wedding at the moment.
I received my toadstool from Tiffany today. She made me a lovely toadstool out of recycled fabrics. It was even stuffed with old stuffed animal filling!
