Weekend craftiness

Easter egg cosies
Last weekend we headed off to visit some friends who live in a dreamy little town on the NSW south coast. I made these Easter egg cosies for the kids – Lucca, Helena & Gianni – popping them atop three chocolate eggs and simple ceramic egg cups.

60s beaded top and silk sari
But not before an early morning dash to the markets – see this gorgeous beaded top and bright pink silk sari? Both are becoming harder to find these days so I was thrilled to snap them up for a song. The sari I’ve earmarked for some fancy dress fun, and the beaded top perches on a picture rail while I’m deciding what to do with it.
