....AWOL...

...Hello dear friends, this is a long overdue post and i am sorry for my absence, at this present time, and for the last five weeks i havent been very well, and things are still no better, so me missing from here  could continue for a little while yet, i will do my best to stop by and see you all if i can, but this thing i am suffering with has really got me down so my mojo and my voice are silent at the moment...

....If you want to come and find me over on Instagram then i will welcome you with open arms, it would be lovely to meet you there......but for the time being Instagram is an easier way for me to stay in touch with everyone.......come say hello.....at 'the crafte nook'.

I have managed to take a load of pictures of various happenings here in my little world to share with you, i have been making lots of things and kemp myself very busy........enjoy.....

Hugs to everyone out there, i will be back , hopefully soon, but not yet....xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

....An invitation....

....yes, an invitation to a magical wood to meet a very special tree...
 
....and when you get an invitation such as this, you pack a picnic, take an offering, and prepare yourself to meet some interesting characters on root....
 
.....But first you have to get past the sleeping Dragon....so be careful of those pesky sticks and twigs underfoot, you dont want to wake a sleeping Dragon.......they dont like it....





 ....I wonder who lives in there?.....could be a hobbit....

 
 ....yes, there he is sitting on a log....i nearly walked straight past him...






....beautiful fallow deer.....oh so friendly....

 ....we stopped to ask this snoozing mushroom which way to the tree, and he told us very sleepily to just keep following the giants foot prints.....

   

 ....this cheeky chappy wanted our picnic basket in exchange for valuable instructions on how to find the magical tree.....i thanked him muchly for wanting to help but said that we were doing just fine, and gave him a banana........he seemed ok with that.....


 
.....i think we're getting nearer....
 
 
 
...oh yes, there he is....
 
 
 
 
.....i wanted to stay and chat with him all day....
 
 .....we talked off herbs and plants and talking to animals, we talked about the weather and off bluebells and keeping bees.....i showed him cats cradle and other things with string, and he showed me how to watch clouds and to know when a storm is coming.....

.....I left an offering of home baked cakes and a small sea shell, and a promise to return before the seasons change again....
 
....a perfect day....
 
 
.....Druid stone park near Canterbury in Kent....
 
....a little magical wood....
