WIP Wednesday

With the gentle patter of rain on the roof, and a bleak, cloud-filled sky filling my window, I’m yearning for nothing greater than a cup of tea, some snuggly stories, and a moment or five to get messy, with a toddler at my feet.

On the agenda for today, a little painting that I started yesterday just needs the finishing touches. A gift for my sister with some bright cheery fabric to bring colour to our day.  A gift for a small boy, the pattern for which was also a ‘yesterday’ thing. I’m feeling the urge to make some pikelets & smother them with butter. Washed down by hot chocolate. Taking a moment to savour another chapter of my latest novel for the 50/50 challenge. A deliciously lazy, indulgent day with my two favourite small people. Let’s rock this Wednesday!

    Mmmm Pikelets 🙂 maybe I should make some of them instead of bickies… Actually scones are sounding delish right about now too 😀

    Is there no end to your creative energy? 🙂 The apron looks great. (as does everything else!)

Welcome!

Hi! I'm Rachel. I love making things & experimenting with new techinques & mediums. I am addicted to pretty paper, and make & sell letterpress stationery. Being creative is my sanity break from the rush of life as a wife, and a mother of four. I do a lot of my creating without shoes. This is the story of where my bare feet & creative heart take me.
