LOOK AWAY VAL!!

I believe gardening is a craft, do you agree? If so, then what you do in your garden counts as art and what you find must therefore be a 'Crafting Buddy' - right?
So yesterday, being a really nice and warm sunny day, was just perfect for the gardening job of power washing the paths. After all, the warmth would help to dry the water and make a rotten job into a not so rotten one.
I moved a pot with a tree fern in and in the fallen leaves behind it was this little buddy.

He was quite happy to be held and seemed to enjoy having his photo taken.

My dilemma was whether to test out the 'kiss' thery, him being quite handsome and all.......er! maybe next time.

BLOG CANDY

Pop over to my other blog
http://mytobyjug.blogspot.com for details of some blog candy which will be drawn on MONDAY.

coo COO coo

This little chap appeared from nowhere on Friday.

He seems well enough and certainly wasn't bothered when 'peg'leg' picked him up and put him on a branch high in our spruce tree. His parents have been calling to him constantly since then, trying to encourage him to fly - which he must have done at some point to get this far because he certainly hasn't got a nest in our trees.

He is still there this morning and has only moved once to another branch and turned round once, despite all the gardening I did around him on Saturday. I reckon he was helping me by keeping an eye on me making sure I only pulled up weeds LOL.
Who is keeping an eye on you this week. Post on your blog then upload here for us all to see.

YUMMY SUNFLOWER SEEDS

I've had my eye on these seeds since that lady crafter, who lives here, planted all those flowers last year. I suppose gardening is a type of craft so I guess it's ok that my photo appears on this blog.

Can you see me? Click on the photo and I will get bigger. That's me, just in front of that plant pot. You can tell it's me as I have 4 white feet and lovely long ears. I think I will make a quick dash for that bird suet cake now before I dash off. I may just see you again sometime. Bye.

CHILLED OUT BUDDY

Hi there, I'm LULU. I don't actually do any craft as there is none at my house, but my Anan has plenty at hers. Trouble is though, I never go there so don't know what craft is all about really.
Here I am on the sofa having another lazy day.

My big brother Frank is upstairs so I can have some peace for a while.
Did you know I am a Korat?
Crafting Buddies is a lovely little place where you can post pictures of other little pals in your house, or even in your friends and families house. Must go, I'm really tired.

COME ON YOU CRAFTING BUDDIES

......let's see what you look like. Ask your crafting mum or dad to post a little story on their blog about what you have been up to this week.
My little pal today is my lovely step-daughter's pusscat, Tabby cat. She is a beauty, but loaded with attitude - or should that read - catitude!

She is no different to millions of cats in so much that if she wants a cuddle she makes sure she gets one, but if she doesn't, she beats you up!
I managed to tickle her ears, head and under her chin, but 'peg leg' enjoyed tormenting her so he got scratched. Hehe! He still went back for more, and to honest, they both enjoyed themselves.
So, even though I am about 135miles from home, I can still find a crafting buddy - even though neither of us get much crafting done!
Post your little experiences from this week so we can all enjoy the magnificent little helpers that surround us.

A POSH LITTLE HELPER TODAY

Last week, Huxley came to make some grunge flowers, but he is far too busy this week to do any crafting because he is fitting a massive, and very lovely, new kitchen at his own house. So this week my little 'posh' buddy is Megan.

Here she is, strutting her stuff all over a card I am (slowly) making. I hope she doesn't leave any paw prints on that lovely piece of paper because I had a bit of a problem punching around the edge with my Martha Stewart punches. Something to do with - 'instructions' and actually reading them!!!
So, who is helping you to craft this week. Upload your post and link it to this one so that we can all share in the 'goings on' at yours.
