some new things in the shop

I've been having lots of fun lately putting together some little tea wallets.  If you like to tote your favourite tea in style wherever you go, but aren't so keen on having it squashed in the bottom of your bag, then these little wallets are just what you need!

 Putting different colours together and playing with lots of gorgeous fabrics is lovely...are so many wonderful combinations!


They each seem to have their own personality.  I'm quite fond of this cheeky orange and blue one.


But really, how could I pick just one?

welcome

Welcome to the happy nest's blog!  We are so pleased you've dropped by for a visit.

I hope this space will be somewhere to share the day-to-day creative happenings in the happy nest.  So...to get past the "what-do-I-write-in-my-first-blog-post" dilemma...here are five things I like.

Fabric!  Big piles of it, little scraps of it, colourful, pastel, patterned, plain...I just love playing with it.


Eating our garden.  Nothing tastes as good as peas fresh from the pod!



 Colour.  How amazing are all the colours around us, if only we really look?


Christmas cards.  So exciting to peek in the letterbox and find a handwritten card celebrating the joy of Jesus' birthday!



And of course, my three gorgeous boys.  I like them a whole lot.


Phew, first post over!  Hope you'll pop back in again soon!
