It was my little sister and gran's birthday on Friday, so it's been a busy week running up to it and a busy weekend post. Birthdays - much like Christmas - aren't actually as relaxing as they're ever made out to be so there's been no time for blogging. We had a nice day though, despite me having a very sore head due to being up very early to get to work and write clinics, rushing down to town to buy fabric and then spending from lunch time until very late staring at a very dimly lit sewing machine in order to make Louise her very own piece of bunting. How many people get hand-made bunting for their birthdays as well as....
...cakey mini bunting! Yes. I did sew up 15+ tiny little flags and sew them on to a piece of ribbon which my sewing machine kept trying to eat. This was also the point I was starting to doze off! Luckily the elder sibling made a very tasty mocha sponge cake for it to sit in. I want to take a better photo, but that will involve more cake...so you may have to wait for that.

Anyway, for this Monday, we have a birthday inspired mood board with lots of balloons, straws and a bit of sparkle. It isn't a birthday without glitter!
