It's very cute and makes a great homemade present. I will try to give some tips to help you make your own!<br />

You will need:<br />
<b>Walnut shells</b><br />
<b>Felt</b> <br />
<b>Wooden beads</b> - I have bought a pack on Amazon, they were slightly different sizes, it turned out to be a good thing because you can choose the right size depending on the size on your walnut shells. This is the pack I have used - <a href="https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B00A7FW11O/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1" target="_blank">Wooden beads</a><br />
<b>Wire - </b>I used a golden wire from Tiger<br />
<b>Glue gun </b><br />
<b>Glitter glue or glitter and glue </b><br />
<b>Acrylic paint for the eyes</b><br />
<b>Stars </b>- I used plastic start for a necklace making kit we had, I'm sure there are lots of options!<br />
<b><br /></b>
I recommend to start by putting glitter on the walnut shells in advance to let it dry. We have glittered our shells after putting the baby inside and some of the glitter went on the felt. You need to find the right beads for the size of the walnut shells that you have. You might have to experiment with the size of the felt for the blanket, but you are looking for a rectangle shape. It's a good idea to try to wrap it about the wooden bead before gluing it. Also, make sure it fits inside the walnut shell! Once you are sure you got the size of the felt right, it's a good time to glue the felt to the bead to make the baby and paint/draw the eyes. <br />
If you want to attach the walnut half to the wire, you need to decide how long you want to make it to hang it on your Christmas tree and double it. Then I put the wire through the star bead and stopped in the middle of the wire and folded it there. I bent it the right size and made a little loop to make it more stable. I have used hot glue gun to put the glue in the shell, put the wire loop and the baby so it all hot glued together. It's ready to go on your Christmas tree!<br />

Over the last few years I had requests to make a triceratops cake, to prepare Mulan/China themed party, Frozen party (of course!!!), dinosaur party. This year it was the science party! I had lots of fun preparing it and thought I might share some of the experiments that are very easy to prepare. I only have a few snapshots because I was doing the experiments at the same time, but hope you find some of the ideas useful. <br />
I used this idea for the invitations - <a href="https://s-media-cache-ak0.pinimg.com/originals/d5/61/c9/d561c99e0d9ffedb402f784bbb1a641e.jpg" target="_blank"><span style="font-size: x-small;">Science party invitation</span></a>. I was too lazy, so ours didn't have "sleeves" and "pockets". <br />

We started off with the <b>walking water experiment. </b>I run it first because it's interesting to keep checking the progress as the time goes by. There are different ways of doing it, but you need a few clear cups, blue, yellow and red food colouring and kitchen towel. If you arrange them in a circle you would need to fill 3 cups with water and different food colour, if you arrange them in the line, you would need an extra cup with red water. Between those cups you need to place empty clear cups. Then you need to fold kitchen towel and connect all the cups. The water would then get absorbed into paper towels and "travel" into the empty cups and mix inside them. Here is an example with just 3 cups - <a href="http://www.coffeecupsandcrayons.com/walking-water-science-experiment-kids/" target="_blank">http://www.coffeecupsandcrayons.com/walking-water-science-experiment-kids/</a><br />

We had another simple experiment about different colours - we filled test tube with liquids with different density. There are many options, I chose 3 we had on hand: blue washing up liquid, water with red food dye and just vegetable oil on top - 3 layers. Then some kids experiments and shook the test tubes and then we checked if the layers separate again. Here is the link to see how to make lots of different layers - <a href="http://kindergartenlifestyle.blogspot.co.uk/2014/03/liquid-rainbow.html?m=1" target="_blank">http://kindergartenlifestyle.blogspot.co.uk/2014/03/liquid-rainbow.html?m=1</a><br />

We made a volcano from a plastic cup and foil. I filled the cup with 3 spoons of soda, 1 spoon of washing up liquid, 1 spoon of water. We then added vinegar and watched the foam overflow. Then, another experiment based on soda and vinegar reaction. You only need empty bottles, balloons, soda and vinegar. We put some vinegar in the empty bottles, and a couple of spoons of soda in the balloons. We carefully pulled the balloons on the bottles and tipped the soda inside bottles and watched the balloons blow up. Here is a very good explanation - <a href="https://uk.pinterest.com/pin/442197257137818648/" target="_blank">https://uk.pinterest.com/pin/442197257137818648/</a><br />

Another very simple and effective activity was building molecules. You would need either soft round sweets or we used marshmallow to connect either tooth sticks or some spaghetti. I have found a very good templates with some examples of simple molecule structures - <a href="http://www.oneprojectcloser.com/isabellas-6th-birthday-lots-fabulous-scientist-party-ideas/" target="_blank">http://www.oneprojectcloser.com/isabellas-6th-birthday-lots-fabulous-scientist-party-ideas/</a><br />

The last experiment was making a slime, we didn't have much time to do it properly, and there are no images for it at all, but it turned out very well, so I will share with you - it's a slime :) It sounds a bit strange, but it's very stretchy and we enjoyed playing with it after the party was over. I was very happy I found a recipe for UK, because a lot of American recipes had borax and I didn't know where to find it. So, you only need an ALDI non-bio washing up liquid (not sure why this specific one, but apparently it has the right components), you need some PVA glue and you can add food colouring if you want it to be specific colour. I have no idea about the proportions, I just added a bit of each, it will look very unattractive at first, but you need to kneed it and the result should be a very lovely and stretchy slime! We haven't made as much slime as here - <a href="http://www.two-daloo.com/night-sky-activities-preschool-galaxy-slime-borax-free/" target="_blank">lovely slime</a> - but this should give you an idea. <br />
And <a href="https://uk.pinterest.com/tamaratovey/science/" target="_blank">here</a> is the Pinterest board I put together while preparing for the <a href="https://uk.pinterest.com/tamaratovey/science/" target="_blank">science party</a>, hope it give you some more ideas!<br />

I happen to have an idea for you - I'm pretty sure not many things can top a voucher for a family photo session. You can fully customise the vouchers - either have them for a session fee value or you can add print credit or specific photo products. It's a great opportunity to have memories of your time together as a family and of your children, the way they are now, because they grow so fast, and next year they will already look different. If you are interested in buying a voucher for a photo session, please contact me as soon as possible!<br />

I don't know why kids are so fascinated by them. Well, they are smooth and shiny. There are a few chestnut trees around girl's school and almost every day before we go home after the school run, we would go and look for some. Because the trees are so close to the school, there are many other children looking for them, often helping the conkers to fall down by throwing sticks. We are lucky if we are able to find 4-5 each. Some days there are more and some days there are less but they do literally get picked up as soon as they fall. This fun lasts for a few weeks till all the conkers have fallen from the chestnut trees. <br />

One day we were coming back from a park we don't go very often to and saw a big chestnut tree. The kids were so excited and we run to look for conkers. We didn't expect that the grass was pretty much covered with them, there must have been hundreds of them. Well, guess what happened - kids excitedly picked as many as they could, but it stopped being much fun very soon. So we just stopped. Although my girls did suggest we come back with some bags the next day!<br />
So as it turned out - more doesn't make us happier. <br />

This summer for the first time I was brave enough to take my girls camping. It went a lot better than I expected and we really had the best time. It was a beautiful place in Wales, close to a few beaches. Sun didn't always shine and I'm pleased to report that our tent turned out to be rain proof.<br />
Getting ready to put the tent up:<br />

Something that is more original than a box of chocolates, ideally made by a child and, of course, useful! And then we came across the idea of making coasters from Hama beads... Wow, that has opened up a lot of new projects! And lovely handmade gifts for all occasions. Everyone needs a coaster and if a teacher doesn't want to take it home, it can be used at work! Win-win!<br />
<br />
Of course we started with Pinterest, I made a board, you are welcome to have a look - <a href="http://uk.pinterest.com/tamaratovey/hama/">http://uk.pinterest.com/tamaratovey/hama/</a><br />
<br />
A lovely fruit set, very easy to make and looks very stylish! (image from Pinterest)<br />

I have photographed there numerous times but there are so many places to explore and such a variety of backgrounds that it's never the same. <br />
It was one of those days when it looks a lot warmer than it is due to wind. Se we were trying to keep the girls warm while having fun. <br />

The family wanted to have a change of clothes into tradition Indian outfits - I was very excited about it! We went back to their house so they can change and carried on with the session at their back garden. As much as I love Blaise castle, I loved this part of the session even more. </div>

We go there frequently and we have finally managed to get there in pretty dresses. We missed the golden sea of buttercups, but there was plenty of clover "snow".<br />

There are lots of butterflies there. I would like to know what are they, there are so many of them! They were quite happy to be transferred into flowers and then they would just flow off. <br />

Le Shan<br />
<br />
Newborn babies are so special. Everyone who held one, smelled their heavenly smell, touched the silky tiny hands, saw their gaze knows how special they are... And when you look at them you think they will always be like this or you will always remember them like this, but then they surprise you by slowly unnoticeably changing and growing every day. <br />
<br />
Beautiful Lyla Blue...<br />

It definitely shows in the family sessions - and these two lovely sisters completely stole the show. I'm pretty sure half of the images from this session are of Gemma and Abi together. Which I totally love. <br />

We will miss this beautiful family who is about to undertake a long flight back home! I know there are many friends and relatives who can't wait to have a cuddle with the beautiful sisters! It was a privilege and a joy to be trusted to photograph them. All the best and have a safe trip home!!!</div>

It feels more like summer and I can't believe we had to wear jackets last week... We had a beautiful day at Westonbirt Arboretum, enjoying all the blossoms.

This information applies for a spring/summer family photo session around Bristol area because the timings are slightly different in other regions. Most of the flowers only last a couple of weeks, so you need to be quick!<br />
1. <strong>Snowdrops</strong>. Middle of February - end of February- absolutely beautiful and gentle. It's still not too warm. <br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-zLgAveBtKv0/VPpTr8FZjhI/AAAAAAAACt8/H5ddD5ndvmM/s1600/snowdrops.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-zLgAveBtKv0/VPpTr8FZjhI/AAAAAAAACt8/H5ddD5ndvmM/s1600/snowdrops.jpg" /></a></div>
<br />
2. <strong>Daffodils</strong>. Middle of March - middle of April - bright and happy. Luckily it's a lot warmer by then, so a good chance for no jackets!<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
3. The most anticipated, arrive together with warmer weather - <strong>Bluebells</strong>! They don't last long, so be quick. I live to try to schedule mini session to give more people a chance to participate. Usually the second half of April.<br />

4. Pretty much at the same time as the bluebells, a lot of trees are blossoming, they make a stunning backdrop.<br />

Enough for children to forget what snow looks like! Thankfully there was a few minutes of snow, sadly it that hasn't been enough to set. However, there was one beautiful frosty morning. Looked almost as good as snow!<br />

We have been so lucky with the beautiful overcast and managed to miss the rain. All the children have enjoyed running around and exploring after a long drive. It was my favourite type of a photosession where the kids just had fun and I have occasionally distracted them with my camera. I got completely carried away and came back with a huge amount of images. <br />

It's one day a year when you are totally justified in being lazy. You have probably stayed up at least until midnight a night before and the children might have had a bit of a later bed time so you are pretty much guaranteed a sleep in, a later start to the day, less energy to do anything big.<br />
Another reason to be a bit relaxed - you do have all those other 364 days in the new year to accomplish all those amazing things you might have put on your New Year's resolutions. <br />
We have started this year by putting away all the Christmas decorations, I think the whole month of having them taking up all the space has been long enough. We have taken the time for some fresh air and running around outside and even started a new project which I'm really excited about. We might actually start having more photos on our walls!<br />

We decorate Christmas tree with gingerbread biscuits (they don't seem to stay there too long for some reason!) and give them as gifts. This year we have taken it into the next level and made 10 mini gingerbread houses in one go.. oh, and 1 Christmas tree. I just had to document it!<br />

And here is my favourite gingerbread recipe (I can't give a credit for it because it was a photocopy or a recipe that I have had for years and I have no idea what book it's from!)<br />

If you like the idea of making some houses, don't think you need special cutters. I have printed a template and put in on a cardboard and used a pizza cutter to cut the dough. Here is the blog post with a lot of details and tips - <a href="http://www.notmartha.org/archives/2009/12/18/a-gingerbread-house-that-perches-on-the-rim-of-your-mug" target="_blank">Gingerbread houses</a> . <br />

The assembled houses.. I really am not skilful enough to make them prettier and more elaborate, but we love the results :)<br />

I also have a lot of lovely American friends and clients I was lucky to meet here in UK. So to all of you who celebrate - Happy Thanksgiving!<br />
This photograph makes me smile and sums up what I'm most grateful for in my life:<br />
