Trying Something New

Hello everyone.


D here again!


The craft below is something I have been meaning to try for several years. 


A couple of years ago, I went to a craft show with Mum and discovered the art of marbling. I was keen to do it myself and bought a starter kit. However, it has languished in a cupboard for six years. 


This Easter holiday, I finally got around to rediscovering it and finally having a play. Setting everything up took a few days, but it was ultimately worth it. I am so pleased with my first attempts and will be doing some more. 









I'm thinking of cutting these up to use as greeting card toppers. What do you think?

And now a quick hello from Beverley.

I started the week by planting six loofah seeds in pots and placing them in the conservatory to germinate. Within a few days, they were all poking their heads above the soil, eager to get growing. I have grown these vines for a couple years but have yet to successfully grow the loofah.

They are vine plants, so I plan to grow them in my new greenhouse this year.

Wish me luck, and I will keep you posted.



We both wish you all a pleasant week ahead with some sunny spells!!!
