Water tank installed at Home Cottage.









The first water tank to be installed - just a little 500 litre one for $79 at Bunnings but this will water the garden and the ducks and chickens.

Basket for crystals.





Jas and I made a basket to hold the beautiful crystal eggs that Kerrie gave Jas for her birthday. The basket is made of lemongrass, mulberry branches, wool, spun flax, spun cotton, papyrus from my water garden, feathers and various thin leaves. It looks great.

Last nights dinner.






Thanks for the mullet Mark!
