A couple of weeks ago I bought some bits from Charlie Motel and have been meaning to blog them for ages. My photos are rubbish, which has been the problem but I can't keep them to myself any longer!!! The framed picture is actually a card, but I thought it was too nice to send, so I've framed it instead. I have a habit of putting the kettle on in a crisis, so tea really does make everything better for me!!!! I bought some badges too and also some christmas cards, but you can't see those - Grace has already written them!!!! Megan at Charlie Motel is so talented - and apparently only 22!!!! Wow, just a baby ;)
I keep missing out on knitted Monkeys, so to scratch my itch, so to speak, I have succumbed to some christmas cards instead. That is until I concoct a devious plan and manage to lure 007 away from that whip yielding witch he lives with.........
(and you can't look at any more of the cards - I can't find my scissors to snip the ribbon. Oh dear. Warren's back from New York tomorrow, the house will get back to some kind of order then!!!)
Normal crafting will resume next week - when I am not as tired. I don't like this getting up at the crack of dawn and going on the school run lark. And I will admit to going in my pyjamas on tuesday.
I think I'll put the kettle on, I know exactly what will make it all better :)

love your shopping!
take care of yourself, enjoy tomorrow when you don't have to do the school run - I am so looking forward to the weekend!
Hi Katy, love the baking sets and your other shopping too.Enjoy your weekend.

I love that you confessed to going out in your pajamas - i sometimes go to pick up Mr Monda from the train station in a pair of PJ's calf length boots and a big coat. Nothing matches and I look shocking but as long as I'm confined to the car I'm ok, and nice and warm too
Good for you going out in pyjamas. My smaller one regularly has her breakfast in the pushchair - she thinks it's a treat! - and on occasion has been pulled out of bed, wrapped up in fleece and carted up the road to take her big sis to school.
But why do they oversleep during the week and get up at the crack of dawn on weekends?
It must feel lovely to know you have such pretty gifts already squirrelled away. I am making kiddie sized pinnies and tiny baking sets would go with them very well, hmmmm.
I have every Friday off and my kids are delivered to school in my PJ's every friday, they walk home for fear of being picked up in the same pyjamas.....
Hope you have a lovely restful weekend. i'll be catching up on sleep. Jane x
Fab goodies, GM .... but pray tell .... which witch are you referring to??!
YES!!! Tea does make eveything better. I've been saying this for years, too - I'm glad you feel the same :o)
Best go and put the kettle on :o)

Hi Katy,
Thanks for the brilliant idea - it was inspired!
D'you wanna join my gang??
;)
Oh dear, I must start christmas-shopping too! but I've been too busy sewing, perhaps my christmas presents will be handmade by myself..I'm too lazy to get out of the house..
What lovely things you have bought! I am intending to spend Christmas day in my Pj's, so I think the school run in them is genious!
Have you had my parcel yet?
i have been doing similar shopping to you - i love Charlie Motel's work and i went for the fawn print, badges and christmas tags - how i am going to part with any of it i do not know.
love, love love molly cupcakes goodies - perfect gifts x
as for the p.j's...... i find once folk have seen you in them a couple of times they do stop staring - works for me!
have a great week

Great shopping treats--those little bake kits are soooo sweet! Have fun making ready for Christmas! ((HUGS))
great pressie choices and i LOVE that card you framed - I am completely with you, there is very little in life that the addition of a nice cup of tea couldn't improve. In fact you have just reminded me - I'm off to put the kettle on...
^^ nice blog!! ^@^
