And today is Lupin’s birthday! For those who watch my instagram stories you’ll see him most days rolling around and zooming. He’s a lurcher - whippet poodle cross but never grew his rough coat, preferring his puppy one! Happy birthday Lupin, we love your sensitive daft routine loving soul. Xx

This is Peason the 3 legged cat. He spends his time outside and runs away if you even stand up too quickly, never mind try to stroke him. I never get to cuddle him, but when I take him to the vets (today a sore on his neck) he puts his paw out for me to hold and it utterly melts my heart.

I’ve been having a day off with my son and grandkid today. Much needed joy.
I can’t believe that the Yule collection has all gone already! This is all that’s left now plus one clock case. Nice to have a few things left but then I should make more but then
Argh the overthinking of a craftsperson!

A day for getting cosy with your slippers and mince pie and a cuppa.
Imagine this vintage clock case scene on your bookcase, lit up twinkling cosy next to the Christmas tree and you in your slippers with a cuppa. Cosy joy!

I can’t promise they’ll share their cake haul with you, but they might make you smile. Imagine having them on your Yule buffet table!

Artic Fox loves to sneak away for a bit of peace and quiet with a slice of Yule log or two.
Fox is looking for someone who likes to sit in the kitchen with the dogs at Yule to share his Yule log with. Or if you like a party, he’s happy to scoff it all! www.celestineandthehare.com/new-collecti...

‘Daddy I found these lead curtain weights and although they make the envelope very fat and heavy & might cost them extra postage I thought I could write some nice words on them to remind Mr Reform that we like kindness here in Wales &no bigots & he’d appreciate that? Do you think he reads Welsh?’
