Brrr it's cold outside

It's so cold outside. I have the heater going and I sit in the sun to drink my coffee and eat my wholemeal cheesy mite scroll. 

I bought this stone owl for $4 from St Vinnies and left it on the counter when I left the shop. A week later I went back and it was still there. Meant to be I say.

The strangest things happen to me sometimes. The other day I bought the fabulous book Meet Me At Mike's: 25 Fun And Crafty Projects. . I couldn't get enough of her blog so I bought the book. It is truly divine. 

Anyway, I decided to make my own version of the Ephemera Mobile. I believe that most of what I make and do is always inspired by someone else so I always try to give credit where credit is due. I hope if I inspire someone else they will do the same. So anyway I looked up the original author of the Ephemeral Mobile after I had made my own and I couldn't believe it but it is by my friend Marriane Horton of Applehead. I was so happy to see her published work - she is a true genius and inspires me in so many ways. See blog http://applehead.typepad.com/applehead/craft/. 

for her Ephemera Mobile. 

This is mine...
