Mums get well box

Things have been a bit hectic over the last few days. I'm working on a major project at work and my mum went into hospital yesterday.  Her Op went well and hopefully she will be coming out on friday but can't drive for 6 weeks.  Anyway i made her a box of goodies to take to the hospital yesterday which i thought i'd share with you...

I made some scented hearts and stuffed with lavender. I also made some peanut butter cookies and put them in a glass jar filled with pink tissue paper then tied with a ribbon and metal heart.  I added some body butter and hand lotion and a book to the box and made a card.  Then i wrapped the box with ribbon and made a gift tag.

Don't you just love the actual box!. I bought it from Dunelm if anyone fancies getting one. It was a bargain at £2.99 as its quite big and deep.

CRAFTY SUNDAY

Well its that time again on sunday when i share with you all crafty things i have made this week.  I have been really busy at work so not had that much time to craft but did manage a few things.  Starting with this beachbag that someone has asked me to make for them.   

Next is another lazy days skirt for my little girl made with some funky fabric bought from here.  She is also wearing the beautiful hairslides made by the very talented kandipandi. if you haven't seen her blog you really should pop over to it.  There is a link on my sidebar.

and finally i went to a candle party on friday night and as a little treat for the hostess i took her some homemade cookies.  Of course i couldn't just give the cookies in a plastic bag so i had to make a little display and attached a scented heart i made.

Well its a miserable rainy day here today but i'm off to Kent tomorrow to see my best friend. I can hardly control my excitement.  Lili is also very excited but only because she found out Kent is near the Queens Palace! She asked if we could pop round and say hello whilst we were near bless. 

I have quite a few birthdays coming up over the next few months so i'm trying to get on top of my homemade gifts but the list keeps getting longer and longer.  The more blogs i look at the more ideas i get.  Must actually get round to finishing some of my project this month lol!.

Last night i made some homemade cookies to take to Kent at weekend.  This is my favourite receipe and is so easy to do.

I made a little tag and tied a ribbon round a glass storage jar bought from Poundland.  Filled it with homemade biscuits and voila.....
