Wordless Wednesday treacle tart



Nearly wordless: but for 30yrs I've adored treacle tart treats. Now I know how easy they are I'm never buying one again.

Upcycled Bottles



In a moment of weakness i somehow agreed to buy very sugary drinks for my son. Determined to prove to me it was a good idea he suggested we stored something in them when they are empty aka upcycle them.






But have you seen the tiny hole in the top????






Not to be outdone we together thought how we could cut, fold, stick, staple, attach - and so on to make these into something stunning.






Then we realised - just as they are -they are stunning so we popped a flower in and love them.






(though now son is saying - we should get other colour drinks to have rainbow vases!)

Treasure Soap for school funds




RD made a batch of treasure soap this week. Some blue bubblegum scent and some red rose scent. He sold all 21 at his school fair, priced £1 each. The treasure inside was a marble or dice.
