Fairy House Pumpkin

20 Oct

We love to carve pumpkins but with little ones in the house, it’s not always the easiest option so we have to think of alternatives. We also love fairies so a fabulous alternative was to make a non-scary and magical pumpkin fairy house…

Who doesn’t love the autumn! Wonderful colours, crisp blue skies and LEAVES! Leaves are a fabulous natural source for creative fun. The array of colours is so beautiful that we wanted to bring that inside so we decided to make an awesome autumn ‘stained glass’ window.

Here’s to another day of homeschooling, we’ve got this 🙌👩‍🏫🍯
🥰 🤵🏻‍♂️👰‍♀️💒 A little b 🥰 🤵🏻‍♂️👰‍♀️💒 A little bit of nice news to share with you...

Feeling a bit me’h today so I’ve cheered myself up by booking a spring date for our wedding...it’s only taken 8 children, around 30 years and a church to get around to doing it 😁

And as it’s going to be a lockdown affair we’ve chosen the spring given the abundance of flowers in the churchyard that we’ll get to enjoy our day surrounded by 🌸🌼🌸🥰
Restoration realities... 🧡 Windowsil grubs, the Restoration realities...
🧡 Windowsil grubs, they just seem to be forever filthy and gather muck more indoors than out. 
Everyday I remind myself that the dirt will wash away but the memories will remain forever 😬
🪚 🪛 🪵 🧁 🧑‍🍳 We made our own ru 🪚 🪛 🪵 🧁 🧑‍🍳 We made our own rustic cake stand! The 8 year old made a plan before using tools to cut some wood slices, drill some holes and screw together his design.
He then made some fairy cakes and decorated them  to make a centrepiece dessert 🌸🧁

It was really easy to do and highly effective, he was very proud of himself 🥰👏
