I was sharing these photos on Flickr so I thought I'd post them here too. These show a coffee table play mat my mom had sewn for the boys, two years ago, when, at the time, I was far less crafty than now. I had drawn & she had made it come true. All fabrics were salvaged, so that's a beautiful example of re-using old clothes or fabric bits.
Close-upsAs promised weeks ago, here is another Minuscule video ... enjoy ! :D And have a great weekend too ! xoxoThanks so much for your kind words about the bedroom declutter, it was so worth doing this, it looks so nice now !
Oh my Sonia, I was just reading up on your latest events and I followed your link to the Brio story... What a truly heart warming little story, it just brings tears to my eyes thinking of it :-) How beautiful, and yes, it is so, so sad that companies such as Brio no longer have the finances to continue, so, sad :-( The boys' room looks fabulous too, very clean and calm, you've done very well my Sonia :-)
ReplyDeleteWishing you a lovely weekend!
Gros bisou!

I do love hearing you talk so proudly of your mums wonderful work. The love she has for your boys is precious. Wishing you a wonderful weekend with your dad there too. Well done for making the boys rooms looks so homely and organised, can you nip over and help me do my childrens now? xx
ReplyDeleteHi Sonia.
ReplyDeleteLong time, no seen, but here I am, wishing you and yours a lovely weekend.
I admire your blog very much, it looks wonderful with nice photos and I'm glad to be here.
Hugs,

Hello,
ReplyDeleteHow much your blog has developed Sonia, it really is lovely with so much to read and look at!
Another Minuscule that I hadn't seen before, hilarious! Unfortunately I'm only able to show the children the ones on the Minuscule website as our school computers have a firewall which stops us from viewing youtube :( I'm going to have to find a way around it!
That's so sad about Brio, they seem to have been around forever and no one else makes such high quality toys.
The boys bedrooms look wonderful, will they stay like that :)
Hugs xx
PS I meant to say how I can certainly see where you get your sewing talent from!! The playmat your mother made is gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteHi Sonia! Well, you're taking after your mom with the sewing and creative talents. What a great idea to make a playmat with recycled fabrics. The boy's bedrooms look adorable. If Jessica has another boy, they can share a room like that. :) Enjoy the rest of the weekend! (((Hugz)))
ReplyDeleteMy dad made me a car mat like this when I was really little! I still have it somewhere! I should dig it out sometime and photograph it! Thank you for sharing! xoxo
