I started with the right idea...

So I woke up today with the intention of having a duvet day! Two days of gardening had wiped me out!  This is what I had in mind...

Sadly, somehow I was compelled by some evil force to sit down in front of the boy's toy shelves and start sorting...it all went downhill from there.  I am rubbish at culling toys which is what is sorely needed, i'm just too soft I guess.  But I tried my hardest and have completed Stage One, which inclulded
*all broken or McD toys thrown away
*any toy that drives me crazy, in donate bag
*all toys sorted into correct drawers and grouped in gallon ziplock bags
*outgrown toys, in donate bag
*all train toys bagged up to be moved into their bedroom

There is still more work to do, but at least it's all tidy... 

On a much more exciting note I've become a bit obsessed with hexagons!
These are the colours I'm working with to make a patchwork pillow for my living room and I'm also very excited to make a Red, white and blue one for the Jubilee
I go to a craft club at my church and last week we were so lucky to have Tracy from Mad About Bags give us a tutorial on the hexagons and a lovely patchwork pillow.  She is an amazingly inspirational and talented lady and can't wait to welcome her back next month!
