Rain rain go away ... or maybe not ... crafternoon time!!

Oh my goodness .... it is such a rainy rainy day!! It is so miserable that we can't even see out our windows (that also has something to do with the condensation from all the clothes I have hung around the house trying to get them dry)

I have been sick & now my partner is also home sick ... (our 19 month old hasn'nt picked it up yet ...) ... so to say that I have been getting a bit of cabin fever is probably a slight under statement ....

But on days like this there is only one thing to do ..... get creative!!!!

Today has been all about making mini's .... Mini oAtiE tHe oWl's that is!!!!

... they are just a bit cute!! I have made a few of them and have a plan of what to do with them (I will show you soon) ....

... lets just say that I am not minding this rain too much at all & always love a good crafternoon!!

"The best thing one can do when it's raining is to let it rain"

And so it begins ....

                   I am not yet sure what this blog is going to be - but would love to share with you my inspirations & the world of - eVie & hEnRy ....  
                                                                     .... partly dreamed up by my own imagination, partly small fragments of my own life ...
                                                             ....eVie & hEnRy is my creative outlet when I am not busy being my daughter Evie's mummy & running around doing what ever needs to be done ... 
                                    .... things are very hectic in our life at the moment with another babe on the way (11 weeks away to be precise) ... but we seem to like things this way ....

                                            .... eVie & hEnRy (and their friends) are dolls & softies that are 100% handmade by me to be played with by little people for years to come - they are unique characters in every way - I hope that in some way they can show little people how important it is that everyone is indiviual and special and that they dont have to be the same as everyone else ...

.... so feel free join our journey along the way ... sometimes crazy & hectic but always creative and fun  .... & there is sure to never be a dull moment ....
