Happy Weekend: Creative & Colourful

Thank you for your company this week, folks! First off, congratulations to Carolina who won the Edge of Belgravia lime green chef's knife from last week's giveaway. This weekend I feel inspired to get my craft on, especially after seeing these creative still life shots by Andrew M. Boyd. I loved the heart-shaped set of cotton reels - such a sweet idea isn't it? On Saturday I'm headed to the flea market in the morning before a quick photo shoot in the afternoon; on Sunday I'll be spending time with family and cooking up some tasty treats. I hope you have fun weekend plans? Have a good one, friends!
