✴ my creative space

It's all about the B's in my space this week.
:: Bridal :: Botanical :: Beads :: Bracelets :: Baby :: Bulbs :: Birds :: Bibs :: Bias Binding :: & Blogging! ::
 After my last post I'm now sketching designs for a bridal headdress.
I'm enjoying letting my imagination go and finding inspiration in the RHS books Flora and Orchids, love, love, love those old botanical paintings.
I found a little time to sort through and finish some beaded bracelets made a while back which were boxed away with all things jewellery making when the baba was born....
....finished the binding on the bibs from last week and began some decorative birdy stitching....
.....and during a bumper baba nap this afternoon and with an unexpected brightness to a grey day I did some brisk bulb planting.
{ By the by, I thought an image of some budding blossoms a more beautiful pic than of a mound of black soil with bulbs buried below! }

Byeee.
