I have also been busy making a few little things.  I made this little lamp for a child's room. 
The shade is a toy my Grandson gave me for my house lol  though when he saw that I had taken the bottom off he wasn't very impressed : D I just used a lolly stick and some beads for a stand. 
I also made some nail polish bottles that I seen on another blog. I made these for my ladies shop I also made some perfume bottles. I hope you like.

I made this bench for a garden maybe :) I am rather pleased with it. I made it from balsa wood.

I made a few other items also but the pictures were baaad lol so I will try taking better pics before I show them : D.

I sometimes hide things ( on myself ) and then cant find them 
I rarely finish a joke as I start laughing too much.
I always start my mornings with tea and toast.
I love reading horror books but hate watching horror movies.
I cry at a Lot of movie's even children's ones I even cry when reading a sad part in a book.
Phew who thinks up these questions haha.
The other rule is to give to 15 blogs  but there are so many fantastic blogs out there and so I give it to all my friends. You are all very welcome to take it to your blogs :) but dont forget you have to answer the 5 questions.
