We got up this morning and cut Roman's hair with the trimmers. It is nice and short and neat again now.
Last summer we brought this Pottery Wheel from the car boot sale for just 10p. We brought the air drying clay a while ago from Hobbycraft to go with it. Today was the first time we remembered to use it.
Unfortunately it didn't work properly as the motor had gone inside and although the wheel went round it wouldn't hold the clay properly. Anais and Roman made some models instead.
Anais' made a flower badge and a Minecraft man

Roman made a drill and a long rocket (like Thunderbird 3)

They are now being left to air harden before they can paint them.
Roman got bored pretty quickly, he wanted to make a real rocket so Anais made him this - here they are in the "capsule"! Roman was watching rockets on his tablet.
I have pinched one of the Christmas hamper baskets to keep odd balls of wool in so it looks nicer than leaving the purple Crafty Bob bag out which they were in before. These are just balls of plain wool which the kids can use too, upstairs there is a bag of scarf yarns, a bag of mohairs, a bag of 100% cottons and a washing basket with spools of crochet yarn in. Wool problem? Me? Nah!
PROJECT TAPESTRY - I have done some more today...
Tonight we watched the film "The Proposal" on Netflix.
Wine Making
Tonight Anais and Roman are sleeping at grandma and grandads house with Jordan, Dylan and Lexi. We started to make the wine!
This is our first time making wine so I hope it will be nice and if so we will do it more regularly.
