Ugh, have been laid up for a couple of weeks with a bad back that makes sitting at my desk for any length of time far too uncomfortable for words! It's particularly annoying at the moment as I was crafting something for a giveaway and now all plans are on hold until I can move around without looking like Julie Walters in Acorn Antiques!

In the meantime, oh my goodness - just how amazing are these shoes!

They even have them in my habitual black!

Available here (and yes, they ship to the UK) and spotted this morning on Maria's Lulu Letty blog, which never fails to cheer me up.

And there is a jumble sale in the next village on Saturday: providing I can find a willing carrier of stuff, I'm there!

ps: thank you to everyone who got in touch about the fairs, all comments were really appreciated. There is hopefully a solution in the offing - will keep you all posted.
