Monday

DAY- THREE HUNDRED AND TWENTY EIGHT - Craft Fayre makes

 

Good morning. It’s a crisp and chilly Monday in my little corner of the world, just 3 degrees and rain on the way, but hey, I can handle a few raindrops. Today is injection day for my Rheumatoid Arthritis, so it’s a gentle, take-it-as-it-comes kind of day. I still get a few pesky side effects, even after all these years, but the benefits far outweigh the wobbliness. So today, I’m embracing the motto,  go with the flow and do what I can, when I can.

I’ve been helping my sister over the last couple of weeks get ready for her Christmas Fayre, and oh my goodness, we’ve had such a laugh making light-up decoupaged bottles. And no — before you ask — I did not personally drink all the bottles we used.  Each one has to be soaked, scrubbed, and painted twice (because apparently, bottles are divas). Once they’re dry, we add gorgeous festive images and let them rest for two whole days. Then comes a shiny coat of Mod Podge to protect them and give them that lovely sheen.

We also put together some adorable pen pots/paintbrush pots stuffed with sweets, perfect for the fayre and wonderfully useful long after the treats are gone. It’s been busy, it’s been creative, and it’s been a whole lot of fun.  Here she is with her friend and daughter (my niece).



I had best get my day started before time runs away with me.  Thank you so much for having a read.  Tracey xx
