Christmas in July

It had to be done!  Thoroughly fed up with this miserable,wet,slimy snail weather, I decided to focus on future months!  I reckoned that by the time I have got my Christmas crafting out of the way I will be able to enjoy the long, hot, balmy Indian summer that we are going to have and not stress about making things for Christmas.

With this in mind I have added a Christmas category to my etsy shop.  There is only one thing in there at the moment but I hope to add to it over the coming weeks.

To my American friends, Happy Independence Day!  I was in the USA about 20 years ago on July 4th in Plimoth, Massachusetts.  I had a huge breakfast of crepes, maple syrup, bacon, eggs and coffee in a traditional diner and then I sat on the kerb outside and cheered and waved as the parade came down the street.  That was one of the best days of my life!
