Oli's Artwork

Seascape by Oli.
My eldest son Pooh Face, who will be 10 in May, is also a lover of arts and crafts...He's going to be a great artist one day I'm sure as both sides of his family are arty and crafty.

He did me this wonderful seascape about 3 years ago and it's been stuck on the side of my microwave ever since...I keep meaning to buy a frame for it so that I can hang it some where more appropriate, but it really jazzes up the dull cream microwave!!

I love having all his paintings and other stuff he's made around the house instead of stuck away in the wardrobes, it's a way of him putting his little stamp on the place!

A Duvet for Mr. T.

Mr. T's new duvet.
Here's a duvet and duvet cover that I made for Mr. T's cot.

The actual duvet inside is made from a spare duvet that I cut to size, For the blue, back side of the cover I used a sheet that we already had that doesn't fit any of our beds. The colourful animal print is a roll of material that I bought for just over 5 Euros IKEA and the red ribbon cost me less than 1 Euro in a local haberdashery shop.

A great half recycled, half new...very cheap...and colourful duvet and cover for Mr. T.!!
