Contemporary Stained Glass Angels + Advent App

A host of Angels for The Stained Glass Museum Shop.  Last year I made them in a range of pastel colours, this year they're dressed in sparkly Jack Frost white.

Can I confess that I used to rather dislike this type of glass - but look how pretty it is on a wintery infant-school-nativity angel!

I was very happy to see that Binny Talib has designed another beautiful Advent Calendar app.  Me and the kids loved last years (it was still being played with well into October!) so we can't wait for next Sunday to open the first door.  The illustrations are sweetly charming, and combined with jaunty barbershop quartet music and wonderfully inventive activities each day, I hope this will become a very modern Christmas tradition.  You can download it here.

P.S.  If you follow me on Instagram or Twitter, you will have seen me get a bit emosh and excitable about our cat Dodger, who had been missing for 6 weeks, being rescued from a narrow gap in between two buildings by an estate agent.  Very skinny and weak (the cat, not the estate agent), but alive, and now back home with us.  He is very happy to be back.  So are we.
