Glittered snow bird house, How-to step by step
After removing the rope loop from the top of the house, paint the entire house white and leave to dry. Then, carefully paint the roof and top of the tower in aqua and leave to dry. Turn upside down and paint base of house in pink colour, leave paint to dry. Once the entire house is painted and dry it is now time to glitter.
Brush PVA glue onto the entire house so you have a nice even coat, then immediately sprinkle with coarse glitter before the glue starts to dry. Tap house lightly to remove excess glitter and leave to dry. Make the ribbon into a loop and knot ends, threading ends of loop through top of house and hot glue gun the ribbon in place. Brush PVA glue along the top of the roof and on the peak of the tower, then immediately sprinkle with white glitter before the glue starts to dry.
Using a hot glue gun, glue the back of the brad and stick over the hole in the front of the house.
I can't wait to decorate my Christmas tree!
Have a sweet day!
It's Here!!

A very big feeling
My little Maxi is an articulate soul who will do anything to get out of going to sleep. Some of our fondest moments have resulted from his nightly excuses. Sleep has made his heart soggy and on other occasions he hasn't been able to sleep in all his energy.
The other night he told me that there was a "very big feeling in my heart".
"What's it feel like?" I asked.
"It's feels big," he said. "But... it's like a gap is there."
"So it's an empty sort of feeling?"
"Yes, it's like all the feelings have been sucked away."
"So what's bothering you right at this minute?" I asked.
"Sometimes feelings just want to suck you right off the planet with them, Mum," came the reply.
My Very Big Feelings are always remorse, envy and fear.
