Flowers on Friday

The skies are a little grey today but the colours of my flowers continue to sing. For anyone who needs a touch of brightness 

Plastic free July - Eco wrap

That's it!! I'm ready to go plastic free for July. My plastic free June was not a success, in fact most of my principals and new approaches to living a better life went out the window in June. I am not a fan of cling film at all and it certainly fits my single use plastic ban. I do like the look of those pretty Eco-wraps with all those beautifully patterned fabric. Oh surely I can make those myself and so with the help of Mr Google, I found some instructions here I however did not read the instructions, I looked at the pictures and guessed the rest, so there are no equipment dedicated to the task as advised.     I drew round a plate slightly larger than the bowl I wanted to cover on some cotton fabric. Put some grease proof paper on a baking tray, followed by the circle of fabric, topped with a sprinkling of beeswax pellets. (In fancy blogs with stunning photography you may find the fabric ironed but I've broken my toe so can't be bothered/ am supposed to be resting)
