The End!!

After what seemed like the longest week in my working history, I have finished my 3 month working contract - {happy dance}

Thanks for the postcard, P :-)

While I love the library, the wonderful staff, and (most of) the challenges, I am looking forward to reconnecting with the friends I've been missing  - 3 coffee and lunch dates booked already for next week!- more creative time, some spring cleaning and a tidy up in the garden. Starting this weekend by spending time with the kids that isn't interrupted with having to do chores - all of that can wait until Monday :-)
Started off on the right creative note this evening by visiting the ALT.SHIFT.CRAFT fair. Lots of crafty goodness. Didn't purchase much this time around, but I took a friend and can show you what we purchased between us....
First stop was Carole's stall - lots of lovelies. Visit her Etsy store if you want to check her out some more.
Our purchases were wrapped in lovely stamped brown paper bags

Lovely hand-dyed ribbon for me (couldn't resist my 2 current fav colours)

Lavender bag for Rhonda - wish you could smell it! Mmmmmmmm

Then onto Deb's stall where Rhonda purchased a ring

Lots of lovely fun.
