R is for..............


....Ranunculus.







You don't get much for 39p now-a-days, but whilst in Tescos last monday - shopping for a few essentials (milk, bread and Battenberg cake) for my elderly grandparents, I spied these beauties, reduced from £5. There was a couple of broken stems, but I could see their potential




......and
Rob Ryan



My lovely limited edition laser-cut (my blurry photo doesn't do it justice) . Rob designed these especially for valentines day, and I managed to get my hands on one before they all sold out. My sister Libby introduced me to Rob Ryan's work a couple of years ago, and last year started doing some work experience with him. Since then she has started working for him a couple of days a week, and loves it, lucky girl!

doodle bug

For christmas Ella received what I think must be one of the best colouring books about, fabulous doodles. I love her first attempts at filling it in, I especially liked the flower she drew on the bottom photo to the right.
