Monday Happy List

Monday Happy Things {Week 389}

Starting the week by writing the Monday Happy List is something I’ve been doing for a while. It’s a chance for me to sit down and reflect on the things that made me happy in the previous week, as well as to record some of our family adventures. It’s a post I always love to write.

Monday Happy Things {Week 389}

Last week I celebrated my birthday with a Chinese takeaway and watching the final episode of Inventing Anna on Netflix. I received lots of books and craft kits which should keep me busy for the rest of the year!

I had fun making some Bridgerton inspired crafts last week. I was so excited for season 2 and whipped up a Bridgerton wooden sign and Bridgerton tote bag using my Cricut Maker.

We had some amazing weather last week and we all enjoyed spending time in the garden. All my lovely pots have sprung into life and  I have crocuses, grape hyacinths and daffodils.  Our cheery tree is blossoming too. We cut the grass and made it all look amazing, and enjoyed a delicious afternoon tea in the garden for Mothers Day.

I finished my blackbird applique and worked on my Bridgerton inspired embroidery hoop. I didn’t have much time last week but I’m hoping to finish it off this week.

We popped to our local on Saturday night for some amazing sour dough pizza. Our local has the best pop up food stalls and it was really good to eat outside on such a warm evening. I’m really looking forward to warmer evenings coming.

    That blackbird Applique is lovely! I used to do decoupage when I was younger. I think there is something to be said for crafting for relaxation

    Happy Birthday!!! I hope the Chinese meal was yummy!!! I’ve not yet Seen Inventing Anna. It does seem to be quite popular. Might need to watch the first one to see what all the fuss is about.
