Hooded Microfibre Poncho

Decathlon's got great hooded beach ponchos and we've been using them for years.

But they are quite big and get super-heavy when wet.

 
So I made a lightweight microfibre copy :-)
  

Of course I got the material from Decathlon: two large towels and one medium. And the elastic part was reused from come old cycling shorts.

Very happy :-)

Summer wreath

When I took down the Christmas wreath a while ago, I felt like there was something missing. A cosy welcome for all our visitors. So I made a summer wreath :-)


Welcome!

And we've been away

When temperatures hit 35+ degrees, it's time to go someplace else. 

 So we did :-)




There were also 35+ degrees, but we had this wonderful sea to cool down. 

And plenty of shade. And ice cream. And granita :-D
