Purse Week @ A Lemon Squeezy Home

I'm so excited !
I've been following The (lovely) Lemon Squeezy Home blog for a few months now and when I checked in the other night I discovered this .....

OoooOOOhhh!!! A competition !!!! With BAGS !!! I don't know what I'm more excited about, actually DESIGNING and making a new bag or looking at all the lovely entries as they are posted in the Flickr Group Purse Week 2012 ( note to self - must figure out how to use Flickr !)

Hmm ! I've been scribbling design ideas on the back of envelopes and lying awake dreaming of fabric combinations. Today I'm going to take a trip into town to hunt down the perfect fabric to start making these schemes and dreams a reality! Wish me luck !

I've been chatting to the lovely Cindy at Rasberry Sunshine (check out her beautiful blog) She's going to enter & if your up for it, why not enter too ?!

Off to the shops !

Thanks for visiting !

Bye bye France...

I was going to name this post 'Bye bye France... hello Home!' but I have so many lovely photos of our French adventure and right now my home is looking like a bit of a bombsite and not very photogenic by any means....I wont inflict any unpacking photos on you!.
So... we are back ! After seven weeks of French sunshine I'm back in Ireland (and the land of unlimited internet access!!yayyy!!!!).
It's been so lovely to get away but its also lovely to come home, I've really missed blogging and am looking forward to getting my home work-space sorted out and lots of crafty projects on the go !
I'm ready to say 'Bye bye' to France for another year.....


Bye bye to Racels cats (Milly & Marvyn)

Bye bye bike rides along the Charente....
Bye bye to the beautiful beach & blue skys of Charante Maritime......

Bye bye little swallows in their nests......


Bye bye beautiful French sunsets........

Bye bye to those Oh! so perfect peaches......

Bye bye lazy evenings down by the river fishing with the kids.....

Bye bye little crayfish......

& finally bye bye to my favourite purchase of the Summer, only 1 Euro at a local brocante!! My restoration project for next year methinks!



Thanks for visiting !
