Thousands of stickers

This is a repost of an amazing project... Images of this have been all over blogs and facebook pages recently, and its not surprising - what fun! I wanted to post it to keep a record for myself more than anything else. I am currently Programme Manager at Storey Gallery in Lancaster. Sometimes I need to remember simple is good.

Snowy adventure

We introduced smallest to the snow this weekend with a wintery adventure up Loughrigg Fell in the Lake District National Park. She was like a tiny pink snowman by the time we descended into Ambleside, very cold with lovely red cheeks and nose. The fabulous Kieth at Bike Treks leant us a towel to dry her off and warm her up. She was so hardy, I was so proud!

Smallest sporting Goretex spotty otter - she blended in well with the rest of us in our adventure kit!

The obligatory Lakeland sheep in snow shot :) 

Winter coat for smallest from Couverture & The Garbstore 

Bath time

Lovely lovely bath toys from Boon

Plus a great way to keep them all tidy

Small to Smallest

From small to smallest ...

What an amazing year !

We celebrated smallest's first birthday with a fancy dress party (pictures to follow) - we filled the room with bunny bunting, made by my own fair hands, and japanese paper balloons from Petra Boase

Kickcan&Conkers shop

One of my favourite blogs Kickcan & Conkers have opened a bigcartel shop

I just love this winter snow scene puzzel.

Here's to a white Christmas. xx Enjoy the holidays.

Festive Market at Storey Gallery

During daylight hours I am Programme Manager at Storey Gallery in Lancaster. Each Christmas, as a deviation from our usual programme, we host a Handmade & Vintage Festive Market. This year we doubled in size and what a response.....Almost 1000 visitors!!

The market was so busy, such great stall holders. Wonderful products to buy and wonderful shoppers to do the buying.

Thanks to JB for the images.
