I hope everyone had a lovely Christmas :)
Meanwhile, I wanted to post this picture of a gift I made for my daughter's American host family who have been very kind to her. Of course I couldn't post it earlier in case they saw it!
I got the idea from an item I had seen in a lovely little gift shop in Brixham. I'd love to say who the original artist was, but I didn't write the name down - I would be happy to credit the artist if anyone knows their name. It was such a lovely idea - simple yet very effective.
The pebbles came from Cowes beach on our visit to the Isle of Wight. I bought the box frame online.
I was very pleased with the effect and the family seemed to like it too :)
Back very soon and here's wishing you all a healthy, happy and simple 2016 x
What a lovely picture.....simple things are often the best. Hope the new year gets you out of your fug.

ReplyDeleteNicked the idea, but I enjoyed making it and it was ever so simple really. Happy New Year to you too :)
DeleteI love your pebble art. My son and his girlfriend made one for me this Christams. They picked the pebbles and a piece of driftwood off Redcar beach
ReplyDeleteI had a look at your gift - very cute. I like the idea of incorporating driftwood too. I may have to try that next time :)
DeleteWhat a lovely gift! Happy New Year!
ReplyDeleteThank you. Happy New Year to you too :)

ReplyDeleteHe he! Theres always next year I guess! I'll try not to disappoint on the recipe front, although they may have to be diet recipes for a while!!
