An Hairbrush, Covered in Hair.
I wrote this back in 2009. For a Beautiful Strong Friend. Much Loved, Much Missed… xxx I sit by the window, my eyes and chest hot and aching from the heaving sobs that had previously wracked them. My inhaler lies by my feet alongside the pills that my fumbling stupid hands failed to open. It’s all just shite and my…

*gigglesnort*
I’m so sorry that this is the probably most inappropriate time ever but I HAVE to share this… The Boy (aka youngest Mumbler), after being presented with a pack of underpants, has decided to put them all on. At once. (he’s toilet training). Each pair bunched up over the last, til finally there was a big struggle with the last…

A Rose By Any Other Name…
I love the array of colours in a well-kept flower garden. The rich pinks, reds, yellows blues and purples… the stark whites… The problem for me is that if I get too close, my head starts to get very fuzzy and sneezing becomes an Olympic Sport for which I’d come first second AND third. I have hayfever and no sense…

Onesie and Epic Socks Sunday
I have THE most AWESOME friends… They have wicked senses of humour, talent oozing out of their every pore in a miriad of beautiful creations, and once in a while, the opportunity to surprise me with something they just KNOW I will ADORE. As you all know by now, the logo for MumblesMummy is Bert, the crochet hook-toting chameleon. I…

Hold Music…
Aaaaaand… we’re past the 10 minute mark… do be do be doooby doooby elevator noise. Not even music. Some awful, out of tune computer generated spanish guitar junk… We all hate it, right? NOPE! Not me. Not today. Cos today I have a PEN, a PENCIL and PAPER. Yes. NO hold music in the world can get to me.…

You know those days?
When the clock ticks soooooooooo slowly that it was at least 479 hours ago that you got up at six a.m (bearing in mind we’re only just past noon)… Well… Why are those days never the ones where you can USE that time to make pretty things? There is always a list of unseen, unnoticed and unheard (although completely valid)…

Oh. My. WORD. 2000 Likers on Facebook!
I seriously can’t quite believe that so many people have seen my facebook page, and followed it. A little over 2 and a half years ago, I’d never made a hat, never used twitter, didn’t have a clue what networking on social media involved, and very quickly got asked for new and interesting designs… There is such a distance between…

International Happiness Day 2014
Yesterday was a bad day. “Like in the song” as Mumble so eloquently says. A lot of things to deal with. Exhausting for everyone at Mumble Manor. We were in much need of happies. And so it dawned this morning, International Happiness Day. Suddenly an idea formed in my mind. A happee. A tiny pocket sized … erm… something… that…

Proud Mummy
I am SOOOOOOOOO ridiculously proud of BOTH of my amazing children the last couple of days. Moreso than usual. Even I had underestimated just how f***ing EPIC they really are. My heart is fit to burst with the love and utter admiration I feel for these two little people, who mean so very much to me, and each other. I…

I Have No Clue What I’m Doing…
I wanted a portfolio. A collection of my work, in one place, so you can all browse it at your leisure and see exactly what I’m capable of… However… I now have portfolio, technologies, executors and product catalogue tabs… and a headache… I’m definitely better at making hats than websites. 😉

I think its a hit…
That little sandy brown ball of fluff at my feet is all I’ve seen of my son since he got up two hours ago… I’m almost finished but not quite. Each time I complete a row and flip it over he growls… Think he might like it 😉 Update: It’s finiiiiiiiiished!!!! And has been nap tested: And wendy house tested……
