All hail the Trail...

Evening all!

Yes, I know, I'm predictable - it's Sunday, the day is drawing to a close, and so it comes to pass that I get round to writing my blog.  But that's because, as my day job has become more and more bananas, the weekend has become the only time I really have to get anything constructive done as well as have a bit of fun.  So, me being me, I cram in as much as I can...

Following a Friday spent pulling up an old fence with The Green Gym (Shelly strong like bull!), getting me barnet done, buying a new handbag (swoon!) and drinking in the Village (not a good idea on an empty stomach peeps), yesterday I went on the E17 Art Trail - and ended up feeling pretty knackered, but VERY inspired.  Whilst I loved seeing what other people were painting and getting ideas for some mixed media projects, it was the work of Hester De Graag that I loved - think stuffed sharks and crocheted creatures and you get the drift.  In fact, I was so

inspired that when I met some friends for a crafty picnic today, despite some previously unsuccessful attempts, I decided to give crochet another go.  Guess which one is mine...

Okay, so maybe I've got a bit to go before I can make my own jellyfish, but the trail gave me the creative kick up the arse that I needed.  So watch this space...

Anyway, on that note, I shall leave you to enjoy the rest of your Sunday.  I think I'll spend the evening eating leftover picnic food, watching a movie and knitting. As in, things I know I am good at.

Ciao for now.
