My first needle felt and....

Update on the old homestead.

 

First here are a couple of photos of my first attempt at needle felting

 

If you haven't guessed it's meant to be a mouse ;o)

 

The tools of my needle felting trade. I made the felting pad myself from burlap and rice.

 

it is going to take some practice as this little mouse took all afternoon!

 

 

Now for the homestead update.

 

I have had quotes for the decorating and 2 of the bedrooms will be started on February 14th.

 

And we have started our revamp of the lounge by moving the TV from one side of the fire to the other, bought a new sofa, secondhand from Les & Gary's in Leigh-on-Sea Essex and an arm chair from another second-hand shop along the way from Les & Gary's. both absolute bargains.

 

This is where the TV was. This is our new sofa.

Now in it's new home, where it fits much better.

 

and our new armchair which ia am sitting now writing this.

 

Must be off to to housewifey things.

 

Blessed Be
