<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">I had never heard of Annie Sloan Chalk Paint until I went into a local vintage shop and spotted some pieces the owner Robin had painted. Well - I spent the next month planning what colours I wanted and put my order in for my birthday. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">I think the name Chalk Paint doesn't really do this stuff justice, so I fondly refer to it as Magic Paint. Here's why: No prep work - that's right no sanding! Just paint! I find two coats usually does the trick and it dries really quick (like 20 mins quick). Wax. And you're done. It's also non toxic and doesn't smell, really, there is no bad paint smell at all. </span></div>

<span style="font-family: 'Courier New', Courier, monospace;">I repainted this chair in one afternoon. I was completely stumped as to what I was going to do with the awful vinyl padded seat, but I loved the shape of the chair. With magic paint you paint anything, so I painted over the vinyl. I actually think it covers the vinyl better than the wood. It's crazy stuff.</span><span style="font-family: 'Courier New', Courier, monospace;"> </span></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">This post comes about two weeks late as I have had a cold that will just not go away. The first few days I was bed ridden, but i'm still sniffy and coughy. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">Anyhoo, I wanted to show you some new (to me) products I have bought in my attempt to be more mindful of the chemicals in my home. Some of you are probably very familiar with Dr Bronner's and after alot of reading I decided to give it a try.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: 'Courier New', Courier, monospace;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: 'Courier New', Courier, monospace;">Dr Bronner's castile liquid soap is so versatile, on the bottle they state 18 uses, although I do not plan on brushing my teeth with soap anytime soon. The big bottle of Peppermint is for my kitchen and I am using five drops to wash the dishes, at first I wasn't really sold on it as I missed my bubbles and they seem to help dry the dishes. I have found that if I wash and then dry immediately I am happy. I also plan to wash my floors with it and anything else that needs doing. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">The little bottles are for in the bathroom, rose for the girls, peppermint for the boys. We use five drops lathered up in our hands as our body wash. It works really well and smells divine. Before I had even tried it I dropped the bottle and smashed the lid, so now it will not shut. I reckon I'm about to lose most of it when someone knocks it over. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">The little bars of soap are to make my own washing powder which I am yet to try, they are sitting on my window sill and every now and then I have to have a smell of the almond soap - it is gorgeous!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;"> Do you use Dr Bronner's? I would love to hear what products you use and how you use them. </span><br />

<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;"> This week I have decided to tackle my project life album. I am going to fill up some empty photo spots...and...write on the cards with a pen [not a pencil]. Me and my pencil are best friends, I love how you can just rub mistakes out, brilliance. But the time has come to let go of trying to be perfect and just get things done around here. My gorgeous hubby always says to me "it's better to be terribly finished, than fantastically unfinished." I think he's right.</span></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: 'Courier New', Courier, monospace;">In my return to full time blogging (as in actually blogging) I have been trawling through blogs and found some lovely</span><span style="font-family: 'Courier New', Courier, monospace;"> new faces. One of which was <a href="http://3xsunshine.blogspot.com.au/2014/03/the-cookie-connection-part-2.html" target="_blank">Sunshine x 3</a> who got me on to the cookie connection over <a href="http://biglittletales.blogspot.co.nz/p/the-cookie-project.html" target="_blank">here</a>. Now if you know me well, you'd know there is no way I would ever be able to commit to baking once a week religiously (unfortunately that's just not how I roll). But what I am going to commit to is sharing my baking every time I do bake and I'm going to aim for Fridays. But if it doesn't happen, it doesn't happen, and I'm not going to beat myself up about it. I figure the kids will love coming home from school on a Friday to find warm cookies for afternoon tea and then together we can do the deliveries. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: 'Courier New', Courier, monospace;">I am off now to bake and crochet. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<span style="font-family: 'Courier New', Courier, monospace;">I'm feeling very chuffed with myself to have finished my crochet flower garland. I had it at my front entrance but decided I wanted to get to see it more often so I put it in the dining room. It feels good to slowly fill my home with things I have made, it's starting to get homely around here. </span><br />

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: 'Courier New', Courier, monospace;">I'm so in love with crochet right now! </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">On Tuesday I visited my <a href="http://littlegumnut.blogspot.com.au/" target="_blank">friend</a> Sophie and we spent the day crocheting and drinking tea - how lovely is that!</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiA2pEvKbk7QqloTzgwNsZhL85nFgoLSixNN9Llij5RVo8wJjnSSfKdiBokv2MvIERkpJ3MbXaaybTUatpxBMVvomVK7PBOSKc4xP0iHi7qDWy9ZW5kq3BF4qCCoNRENzQrAgGS6xToN4bN/s1600/IMG_2310.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiA2pEvKbk7QqloTzgwNsZhL85nFgoLSixNN9Llij5RVo8wJjnSSfKdiBokv2MvIERkpJ3MbXaaybTUatpxBMVvomVK7PBOSKc4xP0iHi7qDWy9ZW5kq3BF4qCCoNRENzQrAgGS6xToN4bN/s1600/IMG_2310.JPG" height="640" width="640" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">At Sophie's house I made my first granny square, and I have to say that I loved using cotton yarn. I have been avoiding cotton because when I first started to crochet I found the strands would unwind and I didn't like the way it looked. But now it looks fine, perhaps because I am more competent or perhaps because the yarn is better quality? Have you had that problem? </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">I am going to make a cushion cover with them for my lounge as i'm trying to brighten things up around here. But I've run out of the colours I like so I need to wait until Deramores have their next sale, I can't bare to pay full price when I know it's often at 20% off.</span></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">I'm thinking about making some sort of catalogue for the wool I'm using too. I thought that might be a good idea to keep track of wools in case I run out or really like one, that way I'll know which one it was and where I got it from. Do you catalogue your wool? I would love you to tell me how you do it.</span></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">So to keep me busy I am making little flowers to make a garland to hang somewhere in my home. Not sure where just yet. I found the pattern <a href="http://myrosevalley.blogspot.com.au/2013/02/the-maybelle-crochet-flower.html" target="_blank">here</a> and they are lovely and simple to make. </span></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: 'Courier New', Courier, monospace;">Well there's nothing quite like publicly putting it out there that you are going to do something...that quilt sat and screamed at me all week "you have to finish me - you told the blogisphere you would!"</span></div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: 'Courier New', Courier, monospace;">Firstly, I need to be honest, I did not finish the quilt {sigh}. However, I did get back on track with it. It took me until Friday night to start working on it, when I sewed up three more rows of triangles. That's when I realised I was out of my tangerine fabric and needed to do a trip to spotlight. This is where the progress ground to a halt. I didn't get to spotlight until Sunday and by then I lost my mojo. I only have to do two more rows. I also made up all my binding. So I think this is definitely</span><span style="font-family: 'Courier New', Courier, monospace;"> a "win".</span></div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: 'Courier New', Courier, monospace;">This week I need to make a present for a baby shower. I plan to make something {not sure what} from the left over fabric from the quilt I made above. So a smaller project this week, but sometimes even harder when you need to decide on a what to do. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">Monday Makes is a crafty challenge for me and you, where every Monday we set ourselves a new crafty project to complete within the week. </span></div>
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">

</span>
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;"> I have a lot of piles of stuff [fabric - wool - paper] with great intentions but no fruition. But no more! This year I plan to knock off as many items on my to do list as possible. </span></div>
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">
</span>
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;"><br /></span></div>
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">
</span>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">Sometimes big.</span></div>
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Sometimes small.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Sometimes needing completing.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Sometimes something new.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
To kick it off I am starting with a rather big project...it's a king size quilt that was meant to be wrapped up under the Christmas tree for my eldest son, but instead was folded up in a paper bag in my room unfinished! The quilt top is about 60% done and pictured above, so wish me luck [please] as I hope to have it finished by next week. </div>

<span style="font-family: 'Courier New', Courier, monospace;">I have been wanting a plate rack for as long as I can remember and now I finally have one as a feature above my dining table. When I first suggested the idea to hubby about a year ago he was like "no way" but I think all the Pinterest, books and magazines I have been showing him have desensitised him to the slightly quirky. I have already swapped things around since this photo was taken and I so love being able to constantly change the displays in my home. I have found the sweetest pattern for a <a href="http://www.dmccreative.co.uk/Inspiration/Projects/Crochet-Designs-with-Cebelia/DMC-Red-Heart.aspx" target="_blank">crochet heart </a>which is going to hang from one of those hooks when I get around to making it!</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">We are in the finishing stages of renovating our kitchen and it's like little pockets of happiness. I am so in love with our wooden bench. My clever darling husband is doing everything himself and we just need to tile and paint now - exciting! The print is a two pack of tea towels I got from KikiK for $9.10 - bargain! Before and after photos coming soon...</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">My youngest will be starting school this year and I have mixed emotions about my little buddy not being around anymore. I want and I need to be more mindful of the fact that my babies are growing up and time with them is precious. I don't want their memories of me to be a grumpy mum that never had time to play with them. So my biggest challenge is to be more mindful of my children.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">I could come up with more, but to be frank I will do well to work on these three, do you have a word for 2014?</span><br />

<span style="text-align: start;">Yep - it's time to start thinking about your Christmas crafting. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="text-align: start;">I do way more crocheting than sewing these days, and I've been wanting to try out crocheting borders for a while, so it seemed fitting to make some crocheted facecloths as gifts. </span></div>

I think this is my all time favourite party! </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I loved the old fashioned games, and so did the kids!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I made up a checklist with all the games on it, to make sure each kid did each game at least once before they were allowed to choose a prize. My main agenda was to make sure every kid had their photo taken in the photo booth!</div>

So it turns out that toffee apples are surprisingly easy to make! </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
They are going to work a treat with my Wizard of Oz theme, and I think they are going to be a good bang for my buck to add impact to my candy bar table. </div>

<b>Toffee Apples</b></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
3 cups sugar</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
1 tablespoon white vinegar</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
1 tablespoon butter</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
1/2 cup water</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
1/2 teaspoon cream of tartar</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
few drops red food colouring</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
8 apples</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
8 wooden skewers</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Put sugar, vinegar, butter and water into a saucepan. Heat gently, stirring constantly until sugar dissolves. Add cream of tartar and food colouring. Bring to the boil. Do not stir. Let mixture boil until the hard crack stage*. While mixture is boiling, wipe the apples. Push an skewer into each stem end. Remove pan from heat, tilt slightly then dip an apple into the toffee, turning to coat. Place on a sheet of baking paper. Repeat with remaining apples. Leave until cold and set.</div>

* Drop a small amount of syrup into very cold water. This separates into threads that are hard and brittle</div>

I am in full swing of planning a Wizard of Oz themed party. I have finished one Dorothy costume, and I have another sprawled all over my dining room waiting to be finished for the guest of honour, Serena, my 22 year old niece.<br />

It was Isabella's cunning plan to have a Wizard of Oz themed party so that Serena would come to the party all the way from New Zealand. My niece Serena LOVES Wizard of Oz. It worked, well actually Serena said she was planning on coming anyway but Isabella was adamant that we would go ahead with the Oz theme.<br />
