It's beginning to smell alot like Christmas....

.....largely due to this huge pack of cinnamon sticks which was delivered yesterday. Mmmmm, smells wonderful!

I usually cut the sticks in half to use as perches for my individual robins, but I got distracted (again!) and decided to have a little play...

...and this was the result!


The mistletoe is basically a wire 'frame which I then wrapped in dotty fabric - finished off with a vintage button 'berry'. Available in my Folksy shop.
Best get on with what I'm supposed to be doing now! Hope you're all having a good week x

  7. These are very good - I do like their plump little bodies and the way they are looking - the fabric is gorgeous too, very festive - I bet you'll end up making as many robins as owls now and will need to go and buy another dotty trolley for transporting all your orders!!

    Love J x

  13. Lovely birdies, Kirsty. I love robins, we have a couple in our garden.
    And the smell of cinnamon is definetly a sign that there will be Christmas in near future. I can't believe that it's already in two months time.
    Hardi adored the TV table your husband made. Great design, plain and yet stylish. Well done.
    Best wishes, Gertie
