go figure....
as my gorgeous american friends amy & suzanne regularly remind me...
what will we all talk about when the weather comes good...
when spring eventually arrives....
they still have snow...
at least i'm at the frost stage...
as a glass half full gal though...i am pretty much at the end of my rope weather wise...
i shouldn't have mentioned the blue sky & sunshine yesterday...
curse myself!
anyhoo...
it does allow one to finish all those little projects over the morning...
do you remember these...?
my little vintage school atlas gift tags...
made with quick home-photocopies of a 50pence car-boot-sale atlas we found...
{who could really cut up a vintage atlas!!}
i also bought some vintage music sheets with the british bestie on our hunting rounds for £1 a sheet...
our big gal plays the saxophone...
& loves sheet music...
so i did the same for her...
photocopied the gorgeous music...
made tags for her birthday thankyou's in april...
& framed some in an old frame that usually holds random words of the month...
ok
this is seriously addictive
