Handmade tree ornaments make lovely gifts. These clay church windows are a unique handmade tree ornament that you won't find in the high street. The windows have a lovely, sparkly, snowy ledge.

A picture of Gypsophila 'Covent Garden'.
This is a very dainty plant, (also known as Baby's Breath), with very pretty five-petalled white flowers. In reality, although it's an annual plant, it is fairly tough and easy to grow. There is a white butterfly in the picture, feeding from the flowers.

The #TerrierTuesday Theme 2nd Dec is 'Earography'

Thanks to music videos we've heard of Armography 💪 & Hairography (think Beyoncè) so whether indoors, outdoors, upside down or right way up we all know #Terriers have very expressive ears & we need to see them! 👂

Hoping for some nice light today to take good pics of this Forgotten SnowGirl.
Her head is made of joint plaster compound (or something like that... 😅) and she is so beautiful 🖤

A head of a Snow Girl sculpture.
She has a black glass eye, an orange stick for a nose. She wears an oversized bow on top of her head. She wears a white top with beads as buttons and a red scarf.

Just a few hours to go (letting all time zones catch up 😉)

I’m still taking worldwide orders through my website but Christmas delivery can no longer be guaranteed after this date 🎁

Thankyou so much for your kindness and support through another year! 🫶🏻

I actually stood there, looking out through this beautiful gothic window. The heavy curtains framed a wonderful view of the English countryside

Good morning. Ragnar's here for Saturday, suitably supported by blankets and cushions... Meanwhile, the human is braving the elements (and Sainsbury's) to ensure his comfort. Take care and have a peaceful day.
