I am frozen and have come inside to write the blog and warm up a bit (I currently have my feet on a hot water bottle trying to thaw).
And the reason? I am having an “Open Weekend” selling all my and Kolka’s stuff to raise funds for well, everyone, I guess. Daisy helped me last weekend to go through every shed sorting out what she wanted, what I might want and all the rest can go.
There was a lot more equipment, rugs, etc when we started but folk have been popping by all week and buying things. No one has left empty handied, which is good.
So, I rushed my chores and then made myself a place to sit/work while waiting for folk to turn up.
I took my felting kit and made two sheep during the day.
This was my view all day. I needed to keep the shed doors open so I could see anyone coming down the track.
Obviously I had company.
Monster popped by too ….. a few times.
And Pepper Pot.
It has definitely been worth doing. As well as Kolka, I had far too much stuff that I never used. Time for it to go and money will be helpful.
And, apart from the cold, I am enjoying seeing folk and making some space while getting rid of things I never use.
Could you let me know how much sheep are ( needlefelted). I know several people who I might want to give one to. Mandy.
Will do! (Which means I can’t remember but will find out).
It must be expensive keeping all the animals. Perhaps we readers could add to your animal fund.
Good on you. A bit of downsizing is always good if only I could bring myself to do it.
I do love your Sheeple. I have one sitting on my mantle piece along with a cute little black crow you made for me.
I think my sheep will might be a bit lonely. I may email you later. I’m thinking I would love a sheeple that looks like Lambie if such a thing were possible, I should love to have one. Hope you are warmed up now. It’s even cold down here in East Sussex if that’s of any help.
I’m so glad you had a successful ‘Open Weekend’ sale. I loved the picture captioned “Monster showed up”! I laughed again looking at it just now. That’s Monster! Just checking in to see what’s going on, just in case he’s needed. I also loved the pictures of Pepper and of the ducks.
