Rather busy...

Please don't take the lack of posting as a I have given up the crafty goodness - more that proper work has caught up with me and I am currently trying to help get a Bronze Duke of Edinburgh Award expedition out, co-ordinate Duke of Edinburgh Award stuff for Girlguiding Scotland, finish my sock monster, get my Lones newsletter finished and do myreal 9-5 job!

Crafty night was cancelled this week but my version of Jingjing, a cat badge plus 'Pungy' the sock monster and some more Dumbldore adventures are all coming soon... ish :)

Can't wait for more Dumbledore adventures? He's been spotted lurking over at Clair's House

Olympic Crafty Idea


While watching the Olympics (bit of an Archery Widow due to it) I decided to find a crafty option and I have! The mascots are available as paper models so since I'm a bear lover I went for the panda (Jingjing).

Not that mine turned out as good as this photo from the website. Oh and the instructions were in Chinese but they do have very good illustrations!

Royal Train Journey

Loyal Subjects,

I thought you'd like to witness your great King enjoying a exciting train ride on Mull. During my recent royal visit to the area I took a short trip on the Mull Railway on my way to visit Torosay Castle. Through this video you can pretend that you were with me, basking in my regal glory.

I hope you enjoyed that,

King Dumbledore
