This is what kept me very occupied on the weekend. Between a very grumpy master 7
(it turns out he has been having "friend" trouble at school. I spent lots of last night awake thinking about him poor boy. He bottles things up and then behaves so badly.. then after you push him to open up it all seems better somehow. Isn't that the truth for all of us?)
and a very tired and whiney master 5, I tuned out and went creative with these gorgeous pendants and bracelets. Well, I think they are gorgeous even if no-one else does! You all should know that I LOVE vintage carved Mother of Pearl buttons and I love roses too, so this was the perfect combination. It's a wonder I hadn't thought of doing these before now.
The cuff bracelets turned out really well. I think I am going to keep one for myself. The others will be added to Etsy and OurShabbyCottage.
Some more Cath Kidston fabric reversible totes are finished and will be added somewhere soon...That's all folks!

Ok WOW just doesnt seem to be enough! You gotta know i love those bracelets! You are a clever little duckie arent you.
Oh and the 'friend' problem..i can relate. Sam has been crying and miserable at pre school for a while now because of some 'friends' to the point where i have just pulled him out of the pre school all together and he is staring a new one next week. Kids can be so nasty cant they.
Hope your little man is feeling better soon :)
I bet hugs from mum help.
