new necklace and caravan update.

This week, I attended a lovely anniversary party. It was a chance to ditch the jeans and put on something swish, so I picked out a nice..... green.....(surprised?) dress and made this necklace to go with it:



Vintage lace, is something that inspires me and I've tried to put it to good use (although I've been told that its sacrilege to hack into vintage lace)

I also received my handmade dog tag for our new puppy, which is coming home in 2 days...



Because Mr Owl had a week off from work (a rarity, let me tell you) we have ignored the normal everyday things and decided to take a holiday at home. We've made heaps of progress on a lot of things, including this cutie pie:

Lots of scrubbing to be done

A high pressure hose works wonders

And I managed to give her an undercoat. She's lost her personality now....but I'll help her get it back!! Go Lola!
This week will also include me filling a large shop order and working our back to school gear .....my middle one (boy child) is starting school this year- one hand is wiping away tears, and the other is punching the air...

I hope everybody has a great week. I'm off to look at making a tree swing.
