CHRISTMAS JOY....


I had big plans & high hopes for christmas this year but my back had different ideas, so after 10 days in bed I have ventured down stairs...my workroom smells of cat pee, the floors make me feel rather ill, there is mess scattered everywhere and I can just about kick it aside with my slippered foot as I shuffle through the carnage and as for the kitchen well eating from the dustbin maybe a healthier choice. To top it all off we have family coming to stay in a couple of days...I think I may return to bed for the rest of the year!

I am desperate to get going on sorting out my studio for the workshops I will be running in 2013....watch this space....there are only so many times you can sketch your ideas onto paper before you just have to get stuck in and I haven't painted anything for days!

So I wish all you lovelies a most wonderful celebration and hope that 2012 has been the most amazing year for all of you....its certainly one I shall remember for many years to come....

  5. Hope your back will soon be mended. If not let your guests know that they will be coming to help care for you, I'm sure your family will be more than happy to 'muck in'.Wishing you a very Happy Christmas and a peaceful and healthy New Year.

Thankyou for all the pleasure your book has bought to me & my resolution for the New Year (!!!) is to make some of the projects out of it. For now I can dream . . . Have a wonderful christmas & take good care. Hugs, Julie :-)
