Well you can see what I did which is why we still have no food in the house, carpets need hoovering and important work needs to be done, oh and a trip to Witney!

  1. I totally understand, I always do the nice jobs and sort of "forget" about the others!
    Have a great weekend.

  4. I would have done the same, your priorities are definitely right!! The housework will always be there, you have to go where the inspiration leads you.
    Have a great weekend.

  5. The mannequin looks lovely after its re-make. Like you I find anything and everything to do to avoid the mundane housework! Have a great time in Witney.

  8. the only way housework ever gets done here is if visitors are coming!

    My niece phoned unexpectedly yesterday to say if I was in, she was just around the corner...I cleared up the rubbing-down mess I was making, hoovered, cleaned the sink, got changed out of smelly (very smelly) horse clothes in 15 minutes flat!
    When she went to leave she said- oh I must call in on the off-chance again, spur-of-the-moment works well for me!!

  9. Miss Bunny - that is my worst nightmare - an unexpected caller! At least I had scrubbed the bathroom clean yesterday!!

  11. Decoupaging Dolly is much more creative than the mundane labelling,ironing and dreaded housework.
    I would have done exactly the same....
    Madame Perma Tan mannequin took a tumble the other day and is sporting a nasty gash to her chest.....think she might need a fabric decoupage make over too!

  13. Tracy lists are a must for me - so satisfying to cross something off when done. Mind you casting a wary eye around my house the dusting is calling me - but then so is making up some packs for tags....oh well dust tomorrow
