Today's make...

I got completely carried away making this little lady this afternoon...I spent hours sewing and modelling clay etc but she is all made up now and is such a help...gathering up all the little nests and eggs strewn about my craft room and getting them ready for me to sew! Such a clever little mouse!

Ermentrude helping out

 and here is some random clay objects I've been making...including cheese, beaks and eggs!

Air drying clay

Ermentrude in the making

I'll post a pic of the finished piece..mounted on her mouse trap with cheese as soon as it's all painted up! I was planning on making her to sell at my upcoming stall on Sunday...but I've grown quite attached to her already..so might have to try and make another one too!

Take Care...and keep crafting

Love Dotty

nifty thrifty sunday

This weeks carboot loot included this lovely book...

I love old books...I love birds...this is my favourite kind of find!

Also found these lot on the same stall

Finding vintage kids books is becoming a bit of an obsession!

 Got a few new reads...not bad at 20p each

and some more glitzy scarves (for 50p)...nice!
There was a load of other stuff...i went a bit mad this week, Ive managed to find a carboot sale with a park and ice cream van near by so my dear Mr comes along with the kids and I get to loot the carboot all on my own...freedom !

Anyways, we've got family folk staying so I'd better be off. I'm linking up with her library adventures blog to share my carboot wares on the weekly "flea market finds". Have you been thrifting this fine sunday?

bye lovelies x
