Isolation


It feels like I am writing a confession .... It has been 3 years since 🤔 I wrote on my blog, but suddenly we have a lot off time on our hands, the world has more time on their hands! 
Mine started 19th March when we started social distancing, I missed celebrating my Mothers 80th Birthday,



My Mothers birthday also fell on Mother's Day, she collects the Nutcracker Soldiers so I found a beaded Nutcracker Soldier so set about making him, people who bead will appreciate the work that went into him, took about 20hrs.




Wasn't quite the same, my Mum opened her present while I was on the phone with her.
