Being Creative.

I'm slowly getting better, the nurse still comes everyday but I've started to be creative again which is lovely.

I've made lots of small tags which are held in little cellophane bags.

There are five types - shells, old maps, music, old pieces of letters and some which I've made to look like lace and brocade fabric.

They are for sale at 1€ / £1 for a packet of ten.

Seashell tags.

I've also made some book marks which would make a lovely little present popped into a card.
They are packed in their own cellophane envelope which is sealed with a manuscript star.
They are also 1€ / £1 each.
Just contact me if you want to buy some.

Seashell bookmarks with linen tassels.

Now I've started on making our Christmas cards for England.
Mr P will take them over later this month.

Lace, brocade tags.

  So the days are passing much more easily now and the quiet process on creating is doing me good.

Old letters tags with linen threads.

Flowers sent with love.

Yesterday afternoon a large box was delivered to the house.
Mr P brought it in telling me that it was flowers .

We unpacked the box and then I had the pleasure of arranging the flowers ordered in England and sent from Holland to France.

The present was from Mr P's sisters and families.
Good to have people who love me.

Friendship - a priceless gift.

The value of friends can never be underestimated.
Emails, phone calls, cards and now visitors.
Friends came yesterday and we sat in front of the wood stove and ate chestnuts which Mr P had collected when he had the chance to play golf on Tuesday ( I was so delighted for him after coming every day for twelve days visiting me in hospital.

Today more friends spending a few hours with us and tomorrow more friends - lovely.

I am making progress and even put some make up on and a pair of earrings  - I'm starting to look a bit more like my normal self.

Here's to the value of friendship !!!
