Everyday it's a getting closer...

going faster than a roller coaster.


Between tea breaks I have been...
 making round things.
I like round things.
They always look so complete, never ending or beginning.
These round things have a purpose but I don't want to say.
I don't want to be blamed for accelerating the 'snowball effect' in October.

(fully dressed pine tree spotted in Portsmouth Hilton last Monday!)

I shall just call them Happy Round Things for now.


I have also been making dangley things.
I like dangley things.
They always look cheery and hang loose.
These dangley things have a purpose but I don't want to say.

I shall just call them Happy Dangley Things for now.


I might make some pointy things soon, like these...


These two have been asking me when they can come out to play.
I said "not yet"...


but they kept nagging...


so I had to organise a Yule Meeting to discuss timing.


Fairy nuff?
Is it too early for...
Christmas decorations?
(ooops... pardon me)

I mentioned my 'Kitsch Corner of Sadness' to a bloggy chum recently.
 Would you like to see?
It might raise a smile on a wet Sunday.






It's like a special care unit.
We rest all our sad, unloved orphans here with a few
cheerful souls to lift their spirits.
Once they are strong enough, we try to set them free
on the Table of Hope here...


Release dates:- 26th October, 16th November and
Christmas Spectacular 12/13/14th December 2013

Guaranteed to warm the cockles of your heart
and excite your pantaloons.


Get there early, there might be a queue.

Crafty ways do not make snowballs bigger.

    Like a circle in a spiral,
    like a wheel within a wheel,
    never ending or beginning,
    on an ever spinning wheel...
