This has been a lovely day, not just that the weather has been gorgeous, but it has been a good out-and-about day too.
This morning l met up with Jane of Snapdragon at Country Baskets to enjoy the talk and demo by Jane Means on gift wrapping. What an inspiration, while l had already been toying with a gift wrapping service for boxing my little goodies on the web site, this really made me think about putting the icing on the cake so to speak. There were some really clever and creative uses of papers and ribbons, and all done with a simplicity and lack of fuss which was really refreshing. I have stocked up on more tissue and raffia and will get practicing right away.
Back home this afternoon to a bit of light weeding and tea in the garden.
Will return soon and hopefully have my little camera in action and some new pix to show you.

About Me
- Karon H Grieve
- Ayrshire, Scotland, United Kingdom
- I live in the Ayrshire countryside in Scotland with my daughter Idgy and far too many animals. I've been crafting for as long as l can remember and started Dream Acres properly in 2005. I grow herbs and make all sorts of home scenters and sleep pillows from the produce. I've always loved sewing and use vintage fabrics in most of my products.Dream Acres goodies have been featured in many magazines from Country Living to BBC Good Homes and have been used on national television too. I sell direct to the public (through web site and by fairs) and through shops including the famous Libertys of London.
