China and glass magic.

Just wanted to show you a workshop I have been doing with some girls from a youth club. We are planning a tea party for the Queens Diamond Jubilee and last week they made a selection of cake stands from a selection of china and glass I found in various charity shops. I had a really enjoyable time looking and searching for the perfect items for the workshop. Then afterwards I couldn't resist buying this blue glass dish I saw in another charity shop. I am trying it out on an upturned glass to see if I like it with or without a stand and of course I'll have to do a bit more hunting to look for the perfect plates and maybe a cup if I want to have different tiers.....a work in progress.

Christmas trimmings

I started to fill my christmas crackers with these small items I'd bought and then I remembered that I had promised to show them to you. That's why there is a bicycle clip missing of the top of the card - it is already in one of the crackers....... I also added butterfly lights to the small pompom tree....... Look at the nice napkins I bought for a friend - not given them to her yet, but I will, yes really!.......
