Strawberry Thief by Janice McFarlane

Im currently very much into a vintage vibe in my home. For years I kept my home quite modern with neutral aesthetics. However, because I dont get out much I was getting fed up with this neutral colour palette, everything was just beige and I have been watching a lot of vintage home decor videos from Provincial French Farmhouse to Arts and Crafts style. I wanted to have a modern heritage style. Now Ive always loved William Morris designs so I was going to bring that into what I wanted to do. Its a work in progress but my latest little project was making a plain little birdhouse into an old vintage style taking inspiration from William Morris Strawberry Thief. I completely repainted and distressed it, added moss and handmade clay strawberries. I found a couple of cute little birds to finish it off. I love how it turned out.

MVP by Vicki Avcin

What is MVP you ask? It is the Most Valuable Player that is awarded to one of the team each week after their inline hockey game. It is done for all the teams in both ice and inline hockey. This week my daughters team (Dragons) won their match 4 – 2 against the home team Skate Paradise. Skate Paradise is the name of the rink where they skate also. This week my daughter was named MVP for scoring 2 of the 4 goals.The reward, a puck that has been spray painted gold on a Mr T type chain. She gets to keep it for a week and then it will be given to someone next week after their game. They have a tradition that whoever wins the MVP has to put up a photo on their club page in a most unusual surroundings or with another VIP. Whether the two she put herself with (AI) are VIPs is up to the individual to decide!! This weeks designs are Anniversary cards where a couple reflect back on the wedding day.

Cookie! by Sue Way

The other day, we had the pleasure of looking after our little grandpup, Cookie, who is our daughters dog. As you may remember, she was a rescue, and as you can see from this picture, she has really blossomed over the years. She is a little princess and loves her family. While she is still nervous around new people and still dislikes the postman, she has become much more content overall. Its heartwarming to see her relaxed at our house, even when her family isnt here, because she trusts us as well. Witnessing her transformation has been truly lovely.
