Anyone else ...

Been watching either Kirstie's Homemade Home or the Christmas version with Phil 'thingy'? I keep thinking I'll try some of the craft things (I know I won't actually get round to any of them) and then realising how much it's going to cost?

[Bobbisox]

is this a 'Location, Location thingy sherr?

[boxtops]

I look at them sherrard, and know I could do some of them, but then think I really can't be bothered, I'll buy 'em - to quote Shirley Conran, life is too short to stuff a mushroom.

Is that the same Kirstie 'knock all the internal walls down' Allsopp that used to find places for people to live?

[Bobbisox]

Boxy I was thinking earlier , what with the Students protest, the Purple People Party would have done a better job?
sorry sherr for the distraction

I've been watching them sherrard and just get jealous that I can't be as clever. I do wonder though who has all the time and money to do the things Kirstie does.

[sherrardk]

She makes peoples' houses more 'homey' and they are now doing 'Christmas' - really fancied making all the kids a patchwork pillow but have been to the material shops in town for stuff for costumes and it will cost a flipping fortune (but still habouring the thought that I just might get round to it).

[NazNomad]

Spoiled rich kid with no idea ... IMO

[Bobbisox]

you should be Mama of the Year Sherr...
you sound so hands on x

[dotty.]

I've watched every episode and I love it when they visit the car boots and but stuff. The guy at the reclamation yard is a star on his own!

[sherrardk]

Hi Bobbisox - I don't work so I have got more time on my hands than you would think. I think I would like it if I had a hand-made pillow that my mother had made for me when I was little.

[Jan1957]

Don't forget his Jack Russell dot.

[Bobbisox]

work???
you do work with those little uns believe me
yes, I agree, this would be a lovely idea Sherr x

[boxtops]

sherrard, my SIL teaches needlecraft and she made the most stunning patchwork quilts for her four children's beds. It took months, all hand-stitched, but they were works of art. She makes a lot of 3-d beaded pictures and jewellery too, talented lady.

Bobbi yes, tho the bunting is a tad mouldy now....

[sherrardk]

Hi Box - don't give me ideas, bedspreads would be brilliant (but I had better start small as I am so un-artistic and I can't sew for toffee - bought a sewing kit last month for the first time (and I am 41)).

[Bobbisox]

awww nooo boxy, take it out to freshen up, it may well be needed ya know?

[Bobbisox]

pinki I like your SIL already ;0)

[Invictas]

Kirstie pisses me off!
She sounds as if it is so easy.
It is when (like here) you have a housekeeper,2 nannies(yes 2) and a PA.
