The Table Tent

Last night I made the girls a table tent. Amelia has been into hiding under covers, making tents and dens, so I saw this idea on another website and had to copy. A few old duvet covers and sheets from my mum provided the perfect materials.

Originally I wanted to do something fancy with windows and applique flowers, but Duncan stepped in and informed me that a proper 'tent' has nothing of the sort - hence the final result. He may like it more than the girls!!

Ameila has been in and out of it all day - and not liking it being rolled back so we can eat - I love that such a simple and quick thing has been such a success and will be played with/in for a long time!
You would not believe how long it took to get the photos above...most looked like this.......

The terror.
Lucy's favourite thing of the day? Trying to drink the bathwater during every second that she was in it. Strange child.
Amelia-ism of the day
me - 'Your halloween party is soon, what do you want to dress up as?'
Amelia - 'A pirate'
me - 'what about a beautiful red fairy called a devil'
Amelia - 'Actually no. A postman'
me - 'not a lovely red cinderalla type devil drss?'
Amelia - 'her dress is blue.'
What can I say to that!?!?!?!?!?
