Work and play on the same day

Hello.

That's Easter done and dusted. I think Storm David has left the country. We had a lovely sunny day today. So this afternoon when I should have been outside getting a dose of vitamin D, I was indoors at the Lincolnshire Showground for the Big Craft event. 

I had a good look around and chatted to some nice people, and I treated myself. 

I bought two more metal flowers to stick in the ground. I already had the blue one from a previous event, so I bought the yellow and the red one to make a set of three. They are made locally at a Blacksmiths shop. A bit pricy at £18 each but they will last a lifetime. 

I've seen these felted soaps before so I thought I would try one. This one cost £3. They are so easy to make. I have got lots of wool so I might try and make one if this is successful.  

Something else to try. A bar of solid shampoo soap. It smells lovely. 

That's it, not buying anything else, I want to get outside in the sunshine. I had it in mind to finish off the day by picking a bag of litter from the grot spot I found at the Industrial Estate on Saturday. I found a couple of strong bags to put all the glass bottles in, then filled a red bag with plastic bottles, and cans, and anything else. I dropped these off at my usual pickup point, added to the bag I left there the other day, and a bag that someone else has put there. I think there are others picking in the area that I cover, so that's good to see. 

Now it's time for cuddles with Mayze.

Catch you later. Toodle pip.   ilona
