WOYWW

Another Wednesday....I am not sure if this is an age thing....but I am sure that the weeks didn't whoosh past this fast as a child! So this week I have been making yoyo brooches, it wasn't until I looked at my very small basket of them that I realised they were nearly all the same colour family, so I thought I'd better make some Christmassy ones...and what could be more festive than black and white skulls with a red accent?!!

 
Only a quick post as my warming morning cuppa is calling....the first frost of the year here is the South West of England...brrrr.....I am wishing I had set my heating to come on.....so job number 1 is resetting the boiler timer!!!

If you fancy a legal nose around desks across the globe pop over to Julia's blog (blinkie on the right).
Happy crafting

  3. Yo Yo brooches - new to me but I love them. We had a slight frost this morning. Sorrel didn't want to go on the grass for her morning wee (she's a dog by the way, just in case you were wondering ha ha).

  13. I've never heard of yoyo brooches either, but they do look rather cool! Nice colours. We always try and delay putting the heating on as late as possible because the oil is just soooo expensive these days - it's amazing what Ugg boots, thick jumpers and fingerless mittens can do, not to mention a kitty or 2 on your lap!! Happy WOYWW, Shoshi #70
