Relaxation, Fudge, and a Fireplace…

Ahhh…

I have just spent two wonderful days and nights in the Sunshine Coast Hinterland. It was a cosy and much-needed break from the world of online work – since I am currently on holidays from my day job, too.

Nick and I hired a little cabin in the mountains…

From which we had a lovely, rainy view….

All the better when you’re snug as a bug in a rug, with a warm fireplace roaring.

Our days were spent reading, wandering around the shops, and kicking back for a few nice dinners in local pubs and restaraunts. I managed to finish two novels, including Twilight (yes, I have finally read it… it was good…).

A few days away was just what was needed to recharge, especially after such a hectic week!

I returned to find myself featured on the wonderful Macaroni and Glue – go have a peek if you want to know a bit more about me and why I do what I do!

Oh, I also wanted to show you all a few of the custom name necklaces I’ve made lately – so you can have a peek at what I’ve managed to do with different names!

…and this was a tricky one, though I’m really happy with how it turned out!

Okay, I’m off to kick back with some of the awesome fudge we picked up on our journey, and a cup of tea. Apologies for missing How-To Tuesday this week – we return to normal programming as of tomorrow!

Oh, and tomorrow I will be making a few bits a pieces – a custom order, a pair of earrings for a giveaway winner, as well as my gifts for Handmade Pay It Forward!
