Come and knock on our door

I cannot wait to own a house of my own so I can do this kind of stuff to the front of it. I adore all of these images, for different reasons. After all, it is the first thing people see when they stop by. I’m leaning towards the more ‘wild’ types at the moment. Such yummy images. Except that last one – pretty sure that’s Photoshopped. But I like it, so it’s staying.

A pirate’s life for me bathroom

I picked up the Marks & Spencer spring home 2011 catalogue the other day and spotted this ultra amazing anchor shower curtain. It would will look perfect in my bathroom once I’m finished re-doing it. A girl can dream.

Guinness World Record – Broken!

A huge thank you to Michelle Fallon who organized the “1,000 Knitters Wanted” event at the Roscommon Lamb Festival this past Saturday, in a bid to break the previous Guinness World Record for most people knitting in one place. 
Myself and my mom, cousins, and aunts huddled in Hyde Park, where 1,147 knitters of all ages gathered and smashed the previous record of 937 held by Oregon, in the USA! We were kept thoroughly entertained thanks to the band and general craic had by all. What an achievement not only for Roscommon, but for Ireland! What a way to spend a Saturday.

I knitted a section of a teddy bear hat I’m making for a dear friend back in Canada. Imma blog it when it’s done, of course.
