Foyles


The window displays have always been pretty. I particularly like this butterfly poster for summer reading promotion. Look at the common reader!! Foyles seems to be doing ok in this time of failing bookshops. Poor bookshops :( I hope they survive. Not that I help...I get my books from the library or charity shops or amazon. Boo.

1000 origami cranes

So, this is what I've been doing lately, with the help of my paper team. We decided to make 1000 cranes to decorate the wedding venue! All white, using scrap paper. These are folded from old uni work! If you fold 1000 you are supposed to be granted a wish...so we thought it would be lovely to do for our marriage, and look very pretty.

Over a thousand are folded now...it was fun. I'm not looking forward to putting them on strings though!

Oh dear.....a 3 month blogging blank. I suck...I guess I have been quite preoccupied with wedding planning! But I haven't failed to fall in love with Kate Jenkin's oh so cute food crochet-ing of joy! Pork Pie! And 4 and 20 blackbirds! And marmite! Catch the exhibition quickly, at Rebecca Hossack Gallery on Charlotte Street till the 24th.
