I love re-cycling old items and so fell in love with this idea
A step by srep how to turn an antique photo album
into an expanding file for letters, receipts, and other important documents.
PS: Im really back this time folksies, i got waylaid getting all teary
at my newly emptied nest, after 30yrs of having children at home
its taken me by suprise! Keeping busy seems to be a great distraction x
Somehow never thought of you as old enough for grown up children!
ReplyDeletelol Charlotte, aghh i've shattered the illusion. My 3 have kept me young & im still only young in my heart x tell them i shall grow old disgracefully ;) x
ReplyDeleteOhh, I know it is soo hard when they go! Creativity is what saved me, making things has been such a gift.
ReplyDeleteIt's a difficult and emotional transition when they leave and I just have the one left (5 gone) so I know how awful the gap feels. As you might know already, they often come back just when you're getting used to the peace. ;)
ReplyDeleteMaking new plans and having goals is the best way to ease the change I think. Wishing you exciting times ahead Ruthie. :)
