Guess Who?

I'd better tell you who it is right now seeing as the last time I got you all to guess who here I forgot to tell you who it was!! (The couple in this photo were Lee's parents in 1969 by the way!). So, of course, the photo above is of the Okines family- my mum, dad, sister & me (aged 2) outside our house in Stevenage. I used to love that white picket fence. I have no idea why! Once upon a time when I was about 4 I decided to sell flowers I had picked in the garden to people passing by our house! I think I made quite a bit of money until my mum realised what I was doing!!! Hee hee! :D

That photo's lovely! And I love the idea of a white picket fence, something very homely about it don't you think.

As for making hearts, do you want them to actually go around the spindles? If so you could attach a small press stud to one end of ribbon, sew the other end inside the heart, then the snap to the back of the heart and loop them round, snap...all done!

I have more ideas if that's not what you were thinking of doing xx

It was in Albert St, Marie. down near the bottom end by the High St and the old houses you can see are in Grove Rd. There was a carpark and the RC church hall in between where the girls went to Panda Playgroup. I think it probably has houses on it now!
Mary took the pic after Helen's first birthday party. Hope you're settled in your new home. love Barbie xx
