More on Reborning

The baby is finished now and has a hastily constructed tiny vest, more sewing to be done soon. Beth has really enjoyed the project and is loving the doll which is very different to her other dolls as it is weighted with tiny glass beads and therefore much closer to the real thing to hold. Thankfully though it makes no demands, a puppy is enough!

A little bit of creativity

Pottery again today, it is my weekly therapy and we both love it.

We are beginning to decorate our creations, this week with coloured slip which will be glazed with a transparent glaze.  No one knows how the colours turn out as they have not used them before so I have taken a couple of before pics to remember the differences.

And Beth's apple is coming on well and attracting a lot of admiration.

We are holding our breath that everything survives the kiln.

Realising a dream!

My eldest daughter and husband have just bought a cottage needing renovation at auction.

They have been looking for the perfect property for some time.

This comes complete with roses round the door.

It is in a lovely location, in the country but close to the city.

There is a lot of work to do but it will be so worth it.

They are just a bit pleased.
