Things I'd like to make...

This, of course, is a potentially endless list, but at the very front of my mind are the curled paper (or is that quilled paper?) rings that Kirstie Allsopp made on Kirstie's Handmade Britain (with original inspiration and practical help from Phiona Richards at Rare Notions. Haven't quite got round to it yet but I have bought the ring blanks (and couldn't resist making a big cocktail ring with a big glued-on silvery glass bead - the work of minutes, literally).
Here's how to make the paper rose ring above

Shown up by the snow

I take no credit for this, obviously: the overnight snowfall has done the work, acting as a beautifully neutral background for showing up the colours in my stained-glass panel (bought for me as a present by Mr Made it!)

Snow time!

A snow cat, made from natural materials (snow, torn leaf for the nose, bits of beech nut husk for the eyelashes). Cute or what?
