My mothers day presents

It was such a special day on Sunday (although Will was not in the best of moods, I think he might be getting more teeth). But this was the first year I have received a handmade mothers day present so it was very special.

Will (and his little school teachers) made me a beautiful hand made card with his fantastic abstract painting :) He also did a hand print in paint onto a little canvas with magnets to put on the fridge.

Read the poem they put on the back - it made me cry!

Here is a look inside the card...

And I also got a new 50mm lens for my new SLR camera. Glen bought me a box of YUUUMMMMY Lindt chocolates and a gift voucher to high tea for two! How sweet and thoughtful of him!

How was your mothers day?

Happy Mothers Day!

Happy Mother's Day to all you Mums out there, especially my Mum - the best mum in the world!

I am spending a wonderful morning with my bub already and I can't wait to show you the little gift that came home for me from daycare - so sweet!

Have a lovely day,

My Mothers Day Present

Here is my Mother's Day present that I've been so excited about! It's a gorgeous book called 'Printing by Hand' by Lena Corwin and it is full of everything you need to know about surface printing by hand.

It has step by step photos showing you everything you need to do for a range of different projects. This one is a hand printed Tablecloth and Napkins.

This one is Paperless Wallpaper using handmade stencils - it looks fantastic!

This one is a screen printed apron!

There are sooooo many fantastic projects like these and they even have a little pattern envelope in the back with the designs she's used so you can trace them and use them in your own projects.

Now I just have to find the time to read this gorgeous book and then the time to do some of these projects! I am so excited about learning these new crafts. I have used most of the techniques before but no for application onto fabric so it is very exciting for me!

Here is a Design*Sponge review and interview with Lena Corwin about the book if you want to find out more.

I hope you have a fantastic Monday lovely ladies (and men... if there are any out there reading this),

Happy Mother's Day

Wishing all my lovely blogging friends a Happy Mother's day today!
I hope you and your mothers and grandmothers all get very spoilt and have a lovely special day.

In this last year, my first year as a mother, I have learnt a new appreciation for my Mum (the best Mum in the world) and all mothers out there. You hear people say it, but it's true that you really don't appreciate all your parents have done for you until you are in their shoes with your own little one.

I have found it the most amazing, challenging, heartwarming, scary, precious thing I have ever done and I'm only one year into it!

Here is one of the small vases of mother's day flowers which I have dispersed in arrangements all over the house. They are so simple and beautiful and I love seeing them every where I turn.

Have a wonderful day everyone,



P.S. I'll show you my MD present later when I have actually opened it :)
