Hourly check ins

7.30

Little bit of crochet to start the day.


8.30

Hoover and dust the hall, stairs and landings.


9.30

Make envelopes for homemade cards using magazine pages.


Made a template first from an old envelope, then decided that just a square was needed. Put the card on diagonally and fold the edges around the card. Simple.




They need a sticky label for the address.


Perhaps I'll put the sticky labels on the back so the front picture can be seen.


Production line set up and rolling along.


All envelopes done and box put away. Need to make some new cards.

Lights on the landings dusted.

Thick bacon piece put in the oven to cook.

  6. I have used magazine pages of flowers, fruit and vegetables to wrap small gifts and the recipients have always loved them. It is a shame to throw the magazines away when there is so much that can be done with them and your envelopes are gorgeous.
