Pretty Pegs!!!!


Morning Peeps!!

well this is a question I ask myself everyday when I look at the snippets of yummy papers on my less than tidy craft desk!!!!! but I love them so much I don't want to throw them away!

what to do? what to do?!!!! romfl!!! so this is what I came up with last week when I was enjoying a couple of putting the washing on the lie days!!

I got to thinking my pegs were a little bit boring and needed some cheering up so out came the glue and scraps of Pink Paislee Prairie Hill papers and my glossy accents and 30 mins later I had pretty pegs!!!

All I did was splodge the scraps of paper onto my pegs with the glue and then filed around the edges to make them fit gorgeously.

Then I gave them a good coat of glossy accents and smoothed it out with a brush.


But...I couldn't stop there and made myself a little magnet for some of my notes from Mo, I so love the little notes he leaves all over for me, they make my day shine.

I attached a strip of adhesive magnet to the back.....



and stick it on the fridge to hold my Mo notes!! this is the one I got for valentines day with Mo's valentines day postcard from his besties! too cute!!!


 so easy to make but so much fun. I have another on my front door (its white but metal!!) that holds a not telling me what Mo needs on what days at school (sigh....yes I am that useless some mornings, especially after the hols so need reminders!!!)

Right I had better get myself moving a bit, I have a grumbly dog walk this morning with my little Poppy acting as stoogey pup to get those big boys used to black dogs. Yesterday was our puppy class get together walk and Poppy loved it. Lots of playing with her buddies and eating horse poo......sigh.......here she is having a little veg out in the grass!!
Have an awesome day,
Hugs Lou xxx
