Now it's novem-brrrrr!

Oooh!! A frosty start to the morning today. In the great glen the cold air finds itself quite at home!! Does make for some very frosty winter days tho, and i am looking forward to the icicles! Oooh and another thing that is good about this time of year here in the glen, are the sunsets...the days may get shorter but the sunsets get better!! Long winter evenings are good for pottering about too, i must try and take up my knitting again.

Last year lovely Jenny fom Invergarry Lodge gave me needles and wool and an excellent book, i made a scarf. (Well technically you could say my Mum- an excellent knitter- made half of my scarf) so this year i am going for leg warmers!! Ha! I figure those are just two short scarves stiched togeher...

Winter weddings are happening of course and i have started to make a few snowy caketops! If you are thinking of ordering a cake top for before or just after New Year, get in touch now as there will be holidays for me over the festive time, so we best get organised now!!

And of course i have been busy making a few wee brooches and pendants for my wintertime etsy shop. Its been good fun and they have taken over my facebook page! I've had a few requests for personalised pins. No problem, since caketop making is all about personalisation, so why should a brooch be any different?! The girls faces are proving popular for grown up girls and little girls too, and what about the coos? Everyone loves a highland coo... So for you lovely blog readers, here's a code so you can get free postage on anything in my etsy shoppe if you live in the UK, NOVBG11SP just type it in when prompted...

Here's a few snaps of what you may find there....
