Birds birds birds...

Birds are pretty cool. Some people spend their lives searching for and watching birds. For me, Bird song is lovely, Birds on their own are OK, But birds as a collective are AWESOME! Coupled with Beautiful music, birds can be so hypnotic. Check out these lovely videos and enjoy :)









 *EDIT*  Following my birdies post. I recieved complaint that i didnt include Dubstep Birds.
Therefore Just for Dan here are some Dubstep Birdies.


 And a Death metal Parrot for good measure.

There's a first time for everything..



Hello! Here is my first blog post and the first of my random musings. I am writing this with a 4 year old boy on my knee and a 7 year old boy bugging me for sweets. It is Day 2 of the Easter holidays and i have snatched a couple of minutes to have a coffee and start my new blog. This is pretty much how my life is most of the time being a busy mum to two small boys. I grab daytime minutes to write down ideas, sketch designs, play with colours in between school runs, play dates, making potato prints, playing army, hanging out washing, cooking, mending scraped knees with Mr happy plasters and cuddles, picking up Lego, going on adventures, baking cakes, playing with Nerf guns and so on and so on. Its pretty mental but i love the chaos. At the end of the day when the kids are in bed and all is (finally) quiet. Out comes the sewing machine and i put all my creative ideas to work.
  This blog is another outlet for me and my random ideas, finds, makes and musings.  I hope you enjoy my posts and Id love to hear your comments.
