Birthday Treats!

A birthday in our house is always a time for treats and celebrations - well mine was no exception!  I was woken with presents including 2 boxes from my favourite potter - Emma Bridgewater!
I also finally got to wear the earings that I have spent all summer paying for, new slippers, smellies and gorgeous Cath Kidston treats - oh but that was just the beginning.......
I was whisked up the M5/M6 to the world of Emma B and treated to lunch in her fab new kitchen/cafe, a little bit of shopping was allowed (well it is my birthday!) and then onwards to Manchester.

This is what I bought - I love it!
Why Manchester?  To see Peter Kaye Live of course and he didn't disapoint, I nearly passed out I laughed so much. We had a night in a fabulous Hotel, use of a complimentary bar and canapes, gorgeous breakie cooked by someone else and a night without the kids thanks to my mum.  What could be better?  I was spoilt and pampered and I loved every minute of it!
So it's been a while - lost my enthusiasm a little back there.  I have been busy booking Xmas fairs and events and as always making - want to see the latest project?



 I have always wanted to have a go at using wallpaper - pretty expensive if you make a mistake - but thankfully this has turned out perfectly.  I have painted this in Farrow & Ball Pointing and of course the paper is Cath Kidston Antique Rose, it is now listed on good ole Ebay so take a look.
See you soon, x
