This is the Mad Hatter with attitude- apparently its no longer cool to smile in photos!!
Still a good time was had by all!
Hello!
HAPPY HALLOWEEN!!!!!!
I’m here making a very tall mad hatters top hat for Zac….. Pictures to follow!
I should be finishing some reports for work, but its Halloween! (nuff said!)
anyhoo, I just thought I’d ask if anyone wants to play “swap the mini” this month?
I was thinking that December will just be sooooo busy for everyone, so why don’t we swap something festive in November and then we can take December off?
Leave me a comment, I’ll gather up the names on Sunday 7th and post the list then.
so, i’d better get back to this hat, apparently teaspoons need to be sewn to his jacket too- at very nearly 14 he can tackle that bit himself!
Actually he could probably make the hat too, but then what fun would that be for me??!

Its October, the Halloween decorations aren’t even up yet (they are down from the attic though, so maybe today?) and I find myself making a christmas album!
But I’m making it for a good cause, so its ok.
My junior school friend Heidi, whom I haven’t seen for very close to 30 years (eek!) has a daughter who goes to the same village school that we went to. Through the wonders of Facebook, she has asked past pupils to donate something to the christmas fair raffle….. So thats what i’m doing!
I’m making it fairly simple with lots of photo space using the K&CO Yuletide collection from the Crafty Alley . I swore I wasn’t buying anymore paper….. but you know how these things happen… ( Isn’t that right Ann??!)
When its finished I’ll put up some more photos.
Have a lovely day,

Mwah ha ha!! ( thats my evil laugh…)
Here is the list for the most “Frightful and Delightful” album swap of the year- Its short and sweet!
Clare L – Timi
Ann – Christa
Nicole – Felicia
So ladies, you know how it works – you can make anything that is 6″ square or less, you can even repeat the TP roll template if you want. Have fun and try to have it in the post by Halloween.
Thanks for playing!!!
(creaky door hinge, clap of thunder, more mwah- ha-ha-ing!!!!!)
Hello Peeps, remember all those goodies I was giving away?
Well, having failed to put all the names on a “random generator” site ( due to internet connection problems) I went with the old fashioned name in a hat method, and the winner is……..
JENNY (AYELET)!!!! send me an email with your postal address Jenny, and I’ll get it out to you asap. xx
Hello, I just wanted to show you the beautiful album I got from Christa in this months swap.
There are some really pretty things inside, i’ll show you more of it in a video soon. Thanks Christa, I love it!!
Zac is doing a graffiti art course at the moment and since his room needed decorating anyway, he’s practising his art. Those spikes at the bottom are the crown on the statue of liberty!! I’ll have to make him stop soon, no amount of open windows will get rid of the smell of spray paint!
( he’s wearing a mask for the spraying bit)
If you live anywhere near me and would like a pumpkin for Halloween lanterns then please buy one of Zacs!! He grew these from seed in my Dads greenhouse, planted them out and harvested them – prehaps he’s the next Richard Branson!!
Hello lovely ladies, its the last day of the month, so hopefully your album is ready to go or has gone!
If you’ve been delayed in any way, like, life in general got in the way or something then please email your partner to let her know.
Now, i’m off to open the package that arrived from Christa today…. I love it when I get an album in the post, its like Christmas!!
Hello, sorry i’ve been missing for a while – i’m just back from a 3 day course, very interesting and very exhausting.
Anyhoo, as I was sitting on the train it occured to me that tomorrow is the last day of september! how? when?!
I had thought that I’d bring the laptop and keep up to date with emails and blogs but alas, no internet connection in the hotel room…..
Guess what that means (other then the hotel was a tad last century- ish?) It means that the next swap will be HALLOWEEN THEMED!!!!!!!!
EXCITEMENT!!!!!!!
So, if you’re ready to make something “FRIGHTFUL AND DELIGHTFUL” then leave a comment!
I’ll put the list up next monday (4th) along with the name of the candy winner!
Enjoy the rest of the week, and especially the weekend,
Felicia x
