Christmas gifts...

Now that we've got to December I feel quietly satisfied that I've a few gifts made and bought.

2 stripey Mousie Mousie's will find themselves in deepest Warwickshire care of 2 special little boys...

And don't you just hate it when you find a gift for someone and just really, really want one for yourself too? Well, I found this gorgeous carved wooden toadstool for my Mum's garden...
And decided that I would treat myself to these in miniature...



The tallest one is about 8 inches high. I have the perfect spot for them. I also ordered an extra medium one and I will take it to the cemetery for Splodge. Toadstools are one of the (many) things that make me think of him... Hope he likes it...

  1. What a lovely idea. I've always felt toadstools are a little bit magical.

  2. LOVE those wooden toadstools! I really enjoy such garden ornaments, but they are rarely found here in Norway, sadly. Your mice are so sweet! Happy days making ready for Christmas! ((HUGS))

  3. The toadstools are great, really made me smile. I was hoping to buy one myself down in Cornwall, but the grass verge which is usually occupied by toadstool carvers was deserted...think wemay have left it a bit toolate in the season! Maybe next year.x
