My Weekend...........

I hope you've all had a good weekend and that the weather was better than what we've had in the U.K.. I haven't got any craft projects to show you but thought I'd share some photo's of my weekend. The weather wasn't to bad on Saturday so we decided to visit Stratford-Upon-Avon, William Shakespeare's birth place. I haven't been there since last summer and it is such a beautiful old town with great shopping and a bustling riverside.
I love browsing in Jack Wills at their beautiful clothes,homeware and the wonderful shop displays so when we saw they have a Jack Wills at Sratford we headed straight to it.

The Union Jack is made up of shot glasses with coloured liquid,so cool.

Look at that chandelier !!!


I bought this bag from Debenhams,isn't it cute.

After we'd finished shopping,we headed to the river for some R&R.





It started to cloud over at about 4pm so we headed back to the car,then the heavens opened and didn't stop raining for over 24 hours.
So a very wet and cold Sunday, just right for curling up on the sofa,watching films,reading a good book and I made some progress on my crocheted blanket.


Back soon......

I love that Union Jack made of shot glasses - living abroad means that the UJ always looks extra special whenever I see it!

Gorgeous bag - I'm jealous!

Sounds like you had a great weekend and I love the pictures. It's always lovely to catch a glimpse of your life.
I can see why you bought that bag; it's gorgeous. I want it too; I love floral patterns and this one is breathtaking!

Can't wait to see the pictures of your blanket once it's finished. This looks promising!
