Spring...

The first of my spring flowers:

Christmas is definitely over...

This weekend we burnt our Christmas tree in the garden.  I wish we could have planted it, but its lack of roots somewhat hampered things.  It made for some interesting photos though...

 

Spring Flowers

I spent some time tidying the garden this weekend and was delighted to see the daffodils and tulips starting to sprout. It almost made up for losing control of the hose and soaking myself with ice cold water…

 

Last year local squirrels had a wonderful time digging up the bulbs and tasting them, discarding most...          
I solved the problem this year with some prudently positioned chicken-wire. Looking forward to a little more colour in the garden over the next few weeks!

A little bit about me

Hello, my name is Lucinda and I live in London, England.  I have an Etsy shop called 'LuliBags', which I opened in late April 2009.   I sell a range of handmade bags and purses, using a mix of modern and vintage fabrics.

I work full-time in the City but my passion lies in sewing and music.  I also enjoy cooking, photography, ashtanga yoga, vintage shopping and gardening.

I set up this blog to share Etsy finds, simple sewing tips for any would-be crafters out there and anything else creative or inspiring which takes my fancy.

Feel free to comment on my blog, I'd love to hear from you.  You can email me, convo me via my Etsy shop or find me on Twitter and Facebook.
