It was painted green and we got to decorating it with tissue paper, pipe cleaners, painted eggs and glitter paint.

Its great to see so many are interested... Over the coming days (until I go into labour😲) we will share what we are doing at home... Here and on our new Instagram page.

We will try our best to share ideas that use materials that you might have at home. So to get you started... Grab a bucket or a bag and go on a nature stroll, (around the garden or somewhere where you can still maintain social distancing... fill it with flowers, twigs, leaves, seeds, acorns and check back here for further instructions...😁 Xx
