I’m usually very hectic and excitable…so I thought I would find some calming, soothing images to try to counter act that…plus they are very beautiful and lovely.
I would love to go here. The stillness of the water is very calming.
I have actually been here! It’s Durdle Door in Dorset…such a beautiful place.
I love this picture.
So, are we all calm and chilled now?
Keep an eye on my blog for a competition giveaway in the next few weeks! As well as new photos of my dogly 
Lots of Love,

Yep…that is really an egg! It’s carved from a goose egg…

This one is carved from a rhea egg.
They are all created by Gary LeMaster and can be found at his website here.
Aren’t they fantastic

So…you know I like knitting right?
Thats my current project…it may not look like much now but it will eventually be a sock…and not just any sock, my first sock!
My first time knitting ‘in the round’ too…there are a lot of needles to contend with but I think I’ve got the hang of it now.
I’m also working on two secret projects…so, a lot of knitting going on…plus I’m already planning future projects. I got me some baby wool to knit some little, tiny clothes with to give to charity (one lot of pink tones and one lot of blue), I also bought some gorgeous Noro Sekku yarn in green/plum/blue…it’s beautiful and contains silk. I tried to take a photo but with no daylight it didn’t look very good, so I’ll try again tomorrow
In the mean while, look at this…it’s knitted with that same type of yarn.
Pattern by Cheri McEwen
This shawl was knitted by a Ravelry.com user called ‘Merchantofvino’…it’s so beautiful! I wish I could knit like that…maybe one day.
Lots of Love,

That’s what my boy got me today to cheer me up. Aren’t they beautiful!

Check out those lights! Love the pattern they made on the roof…much more imaginative and intricate than other Christmas lights you see. Click the picture to visit the Twin Cities Daily Photo blog for more info and where to find this house! (It’s in the USA so I can’t visit it <sob>).

Well, well, well…this is all kinds of gorgeousness!
I really want this!
It’s an individual cupcake stand! I think it is one of the prettiest things I have seen in my life…but oh, wait, there’s more…

Then check out these little candles…
