celebrating a hand-made life ~ 1

Our dear friend over at My Home Made Happy is posting one photo each day on the theme of “hands” throughout March.  We are joining in too, although it won’t be every day with us. Why not have a go too? Visit her post to find out more by clicking on her badge on the top left of our blog or here on HANDS.

'Hands' are amazing so why not celebrate them.  Join in sharing images of your hands in action, or your loved ones hands.

Here is our first offering! Not a surprise...!

going potty

When someone surprises you with a kindness it is extra special, isn't it.
I could have one of these to use to pot-up my plants...

But no! my dear friend Mr C who lives here in Cornwall and helps me to look after my Aunt's home instead made me one like this!

It was originally an industrial Singer sewing machine and he stripped it out, rejuvenated the base and made a 'potting' top for it.
I love it and will treasure it..

potting bench or new cat bed?

A labour of love.
What unusual things have you had made for you...?
