Santa Comes Early
I haven't baked anything for ages. One reason is that my really cheap scales finally broke a few months ago and secondly I simply haven't had the time or energy. So yesterday I treated myself to these lovely new baby blue scales. I have wanted some of these for ages and finally bought some.
I didn't do any baking as such but it did inspire me to spend some much needed crafty time with Emily making salt dough decorations. I have never made salt dough before so it was good to finally give it a go and Emily had a ball! We painted them with some left over china paint and later on we glued buttons and I attached some embroidery thread to hang them. By this stage the battery was dead on the camera and I couldn't be bothered waiting to photograph the final result!
It felt great doing something creative with Emily. Just have to build up to working on my own projects. I have bought felt for the stockings by the way but am still waiting for a moment to make them!
