My Place & Yours : Bedside...

How much fun is a meme! I saw this on Meet Me at Mikes blogspot & I just had to play so here is my contribution to My Place & Yours...My bedside.  An old stool serving as a bedside table - have been meaning to give it a paint but I've decided I like it's rustic charm, A few books my husband and I are taking in turns reading. A pile of ribbon, fabric & buttons my son tipped out of my sewing box, apparently rolling Buzz Lightyear down the stairs is a better use of the box! And a framed drawing waiting to be put up...

Getting there...

It's taking me a while to fumble my way through setting up this blog but I'm getting there, and having fun along the way! Although, I think I have seriously neglected my kids during this whole process - they'll be right! If nothing else they're learning some new conflict resolution skills as a result of me not getting involved!
The whole blog thing really is very consuming and heaps of fun checking out other blogs and amazingly talented and inspirational people.  Oh, and I've also managed to make myself a follower of my own blog! Does anyone know how to remove this?

Well "HELLO!"
This is my very first blog and I am quite excited about it. I'm really looking forward to sharing my new venture with you all. I have been creating nursery canvases for friends and family as gifts for a couple of years now and I've decided to take the plunge and put them out there for the public to enjoy!
I'm a fulltime mum to three little boys, so life is pretty busy already, but I'm up for another challenge - so wish me luck!!
My pieces are all hand made and mostly one-offs, as the fabric and ribbon I use can change depending on availabilty. I use quality fabrics and look for materials that are a little bit special so that each piece is unique. I think they are quite sweet & I really hope you do too....
