Yarn Bombing

"Yarn Bombing -- or as it’s called in Europe, Knit Graffiti – has been taking hold all over the world. From fibre artists who craft covers for a water tower or bus to small community groups who cover lampposts and parking meters, embellishing the world with yarn is a celebration of beauty and a sign of hope and humour. This kind of work is joyous, whimsical, and opens up what knitting and crocheting can be. Yarn is the new paint of our time. Community groups, local knitting groups and individuals have been collectively knitting and crocheting bringing the traditional craft to life."

I visited the Village Arts Centre in East Kilbride after my daughter-in-law told me it had been Yarn-Bombed for the next day's fun. I got a few photos and thought it was a great idea -- showing off knitting and crochet in an unusual way.

Snow Joke

Well the snow has finally reached Glasgow, we hoped it would stay elsewhere in Scotland. Ah, but this morning the noise of the children playing in the park sounds happy! Our little Grandsons are too young for such joys. Last night was so cold, we've turned soft over this wet winter. Here's a last night and this morning pair of photos.

Perhaps it's a day for crafting indoors?

Your storage solutions for both outside and inside

Blog prompt #12

Are you a gardener? Tell me more about life with green fingers. Are you mega organised in the house?

Yesterday you saw my storage solutions for the CraftyStudy, now today it's other storage solutions both inside and outside! Well, Emma of docrafts, if some Creativity Club folk didn't want to show their messy craft, think how we'll feel about our cupboards and sheds! LOL I don't have any particularly nifty storage, I would just love to have some solutions such as Ikea offers for hiding everything neatly away in the house. As for the garden, well, I just leave the shed to be messed-up by my hubby as he does the gardening! So with these cop-outs, I leave you with a decoupaged CraftsUprint garden card and a decoupaged New Home Garden Shed card. 

Since CC Emma was talking about sunny weather in the Forum, here's a rainbow that appeared yesterday evening.
