A day of pleasant presents!

I finished the new bunting for my bike, it flaps around quite happily!
The new skull and crossbones fabric is irresistable, I had to make something with it and the black and white gingham is just the thing to go with it.
Poor old bike has to stand outside Halfpenny Home in all weathers and he's looking his age - 84!
I had a visit from our next door neighbour who is never far from her preserving pan at this time of year, she's used one of our new Christmas fabrics to top her jars of mincemeat. The other preserves Jo makes get to wear gingham...
Non-crafty people may find it hard to get excited about a delivery of ragrug hooks but we did! We've not had any of these in for ages and now more than ever people are eager to learn this most thrifty of crafts, ragrugs are made with old rags that are of no further use and these are transformed into pieces of textile art using very simple techniques and tools!
The best surprise today was the parcel that arrived from www.mimiandtilly.blogspot.com these beautiful earrings! They are so lovely and made from old chandelier drops - nice recycling!
Thank you so much, what a treat. The box is a beautiful colour too! Nic x

Halfpenny Home has it's first blog giveaway!



I had to start this post with a view of the shop from upstairs in the Art Studio as it looks so pretty! Art classes are having a break now until September, please get in touch with us if you would like to join them then.
Yesterday afternoon we wrote the names of all the blog giveaway entrants onto parcel labels...
then into the lovely new cloud glass bowl...

and Gavin drew out a name!
Well done! You can look forward to recieving your parcel of goodies shortly. Nic x
