Cold Frost and a dusting of Snow!

Well real winter has hit the UK, FINALLY! I have been dreaming of playing in the snow and then coming in to thaw out and drink warm tea in my thick woollen socks and sheepskin slippers!
We made this Snow Lady today, with four arms, naturally. 

...And in the spirit of onesheepishgirl.blogspot.co.uk who takes the most amazing photo stills of her work, plans and dreams, here some pics of my winter essentials for snow rambles:   
                   
                           My big well loved bag for all mine and my little boy's clobber!




My mum's home knitted mittens, an old blanket I felted by mistake and use as a massive shawl, and a wool beret to pull over my ears...Ahh, the simple things...




Out this morning watching the ducks skating on the ice. I don't think poor British Ducks knew what had hit them. They were probably wishing they had migrated south after all instead of waiting for their daily dose of tummy-swelling Kingsmill/Hovis sliced white bread!




On the crafting front, a little winter climbing gnome I made. His name is Sir Stilton Mildew...

...Otherwise I am getting into the Valentine spirit making Heart and love themed things for my Etsy Shop yojocreations.etsy.com 





                               "Heart to Heart though miles apart,
                                 my love to you shall never depart."...[anon]
