How was your weekend?
I had a crazy busy day at work on Saturday followed by my staff disco, which was fun. I also won two raffle prizes too!
Something I normally never do. I did say to put one back in but was told no, take both. I now am a proud owner of a bottle of one of our new Christmas drinks G&TEA, which has gold leaf in it. I tried it recently at a tasting session and it was yummy and I don't like gin normally. I also won a £50 gift voucher for M & S which will pay for some nice Christmas food, mmmm. Whoop, whoop!
I would have liked to stay longer at the party but we took the boys and had both been at work during the day so everyone was tired.
Sunday I had a quiet morning then I took my youngest out to the cinema with my BFF and her family to watch Nativity 3. It was a very funny film but I don't think it was as special as the earlier two, I did LOL a lot though. It was nice to just have some time together.
Moving on to crafting, remember the white tin plant pots that I was asked to make into Christmas decorations for the party?
Here's the end result......sorry the lighting wasn't the best for taking photographs by the time I had them finished.
I also rescued a couple of baskets which arrived to work upside down.
So they also went out on the tables.
My boss liked them which was the main point and I had fun making them, plus sore fingers, holly and pine trees can be quite sharp!
Over the next few weeks my postings may start and get a little intermittent as we ramp up for Christmas at work. I have more hours each week and lots to do at home, the usual and the added Christmas bits and bobs. I still have cards to make! Not got onto that yet, that is why I admire those of you who make them all year around. I always seem to have something else to do first.
Anyway enough of my rambling I better go and see how tea is coming on.
Catch you soon. x
