beadalishious


I have been trying out some new designs recently and would love your opinions....
The spider isn't new but the rest are. They are more 3D than they look here.
Maybe I could use them as phone charms? The dragons have difference coloured under-bellies and the wings are convex.

Above shows a tree hole digging session held at my mums school as part of a forest schools project. All the volunteers (including myself) dug holes for new trees to be placed in by pupils later in the week. At the moment the lower school grounds have been planted as a wild flower meadow but in the long run the area should look like a mini forest with walkways and willow structures. Trees planted so far: Oak, Hornbeam, Juniper, Scotts Pine, Wild Cherry, Alder, Elder, Wild rose, Field Maple,Pear, Apple,Beech and Rowan.
Hopefully all this wet weather we are having here will water the trees in!
Have a wonderful weekend!

Allotment update!

The allotment has been progressing very quickly and already I have harvested a huge amount of crop (mostly fresh Peas but also Radish, a few Garlic bulbs, some Potatoes, Red Currants, Strawberries and Raspberries) All YUMMY!! :)
A photo of me harvesting one of the many Pea plants! As you can see there are still lots to pick!
Here are a few cosmos plants to brighten up the allotment on dreary days!
Finally a side shot of the lower half of the allotment!
Lots of weeding to do this weekend, I hope you have a lovely one!
