Crafty Kayes Room

my garden has been neglected while I have been recuperating  but I was lucky enough to have friends who helped with the basics. These two cactii were in the backyard, unnoticed until one day they just blossomed.  Just shows what you can achieve with sheer neglect. 😊    

Our village once again held a Biggest Morning Tea  to raise funds for the Cancer Council.  Our morning tea was all donated by residents as was the raffle prizes  and we raised $1834 which we hope will happy someone live a better life during  their journey with this disease.   A wonderful effort by everyone involved.

I finished this portrait of my son and daughter recently  and it was waiting to be framed. After 25,900 beads I was glad to see it done. I had recently completed  one very similar for my daughter and also for my son and daughter in law,. So I think beading will be having a rest for a little while. 😊
