New Carpet =D

Well, today we got new carpet =) Our old carpet was getting pretty nasty.

It was hard to empty all the furniture and stuff out of rooms - 

I had a lovely mattress bed on the floor

Elle arranged things from her desk on the square of floor where the desk should be...

The stuff I got to keep out of the boxes

And it was hard finding places to pile everything... 

I'd have to diet to fit out that door...

Poor Fred is a bit surrounded in there...

Somewhere through there is a kitchen...

But a plus side of moving everything was that everything got a well-needed dust! 

After they ripped up the old carpet, we signed the slab - so future people would see it...

We found a mysterious "post hole" in the slab! So Time Team...

Then the new underlay and carpet went down =)

Moke... sort of supervised... well... mostly slept!

The floors look awesome, but it is going to take a while to move everything back into the rooms - and we did vacuum it after these pics were taken. 

I was pretty impressed with how they joined the pieces of carpet together! They had a big steamy melty thing that they used and you can hardly see the joins =D

Bunny Slippers!

This is what I have been working on for the past two days =) It is an entry into the Puzzle Pirates winter trinket design contest =D

I started off with a kind of messy sketch... 

Then I tidied it up...

Then I coloured it in... 

And shaded it a bit...

Then I had to resize and tidy it up... which is the hardest part! 

Now, I am trying to decide which of these two revisions to enter... 

I am leaning toward the second.

Moke Approves!

So, we are currently getting quotes to buy new carpet for our house. One carpet shop gave us a swatch of carpet to take home - to see if we liked the colour... Moke walked in, sniffed it, and then did this:

I think she approves! =D I love that baby so much! <3
