My week #21

My new postcard display rack / another quick visit of the transport museum (go once and you get free entry for a year!) / drinking tea, buying notebooks and cutting fabric squares with little sis' - she wants to make a quilt like the one my mum made for M - thanks Mum! / receiving a lovely little package from La maîtresse en maillot de bain - thank you Anaïs! / my favourite shoes / fun run and ice cream

In my letterbox.. #2

 

Another heavenly package from Anne-Flore.. I sent her this and she really spoilt me! A piece of my favourite Liberty and some other fabric, chocolate, masking tape, stamps and lots of other lovely goodies.. Look at those beautiful little mice, such delicate work, I love it!!

Check out her Playmobil DIYs here, here, here, here and here. Anne-Flore has got a wealth of original and cute ideas, with easy to follow instructions (in French but happy to help translate!), I'm a fan!

Thank you Anne-Flore!

My week #20

 

 

Busy, busy month of May.. playing tourists with mum and niece: the changing of the guard and the London Eye / Orpheus at the theatre - this one definitely makes my Top 10 favourite shows ever! / a street art tour around Brick Lane, East London / Y's favourite ball, in the park / reading when I get the chance.. thanks Eva-Mona for the recommendation, I am loving this book! 

My week #19

Sun, ball, bubbles and friends in the park / loving the new Caffe Nero cup / a Victorian tour of the Royal Albert Hall / walking to school, Y wanting to wear shorts just like his big brother..

In the post..

Remember the writing project organised by Lauriane from Yellow Cat a few months back? My penpal Anne-Flore and I loved it so much that we decided to carry on sending each other little parcels full of nice things every couple of months..
Here's a glimpse of what I sent her this week..

Craft it forward #4

This one's on his way to France..
4 down, 1 to go! Time for a little break..

My week #18

 

 

 

 

Back to school / adding wishes to our wish tree (Y is only 2 but you'll notice his writing is quite remarkable!) / blue skies and a lovely walk along Southbank, M drawing his own map and catching a glimpse of the marathon runners / sun! we can see our shadows! / playmobil mayhem / finishing our time capsule (M would like to open it in 2 years time.. On the day he sealed the letter he'd just written for his 16 year old self he said "I want to read it tomorrow"! But he's actually already forgotten about it so I shall hide the box in a cupboard for the next 10 years..)

And my new niece was born this week, can't wait to meet her!
