Made a few more upcycled Christmas decs involving plastic. It's bugging me, I don't want to say this is a good thing to do. Put your plastics in the recycling. If you let your kids use them for craft they end up in landfill.

What’s in the *bird* box? 🪺 🐦
A colony of Daubenton’s #bats! 🦇
They don’t read the labels! Lots of bats using “bird” boxes.

I have a couple more boxes upstairs. The jewellery box fell to bits due to central heating, so I think I'll move them all out here. Next doors kitchen extension is behind that blind, so they won't get too much light.

Did the itv ad free subscription thing. I haven't watched anything on itv for a couple of years. Quite excited. What should I watch? (Nice crafty things, non violent crime/mystery will do for a start)
