Southern Aurora

Well today we headed out across the city to Bibra Lake, to the Steiner related shop there(Southern Aurora). On public transport it was a bit of a hike- took about 1 1/2- it could have been a quicker trip, but since we don't know the area at all, and it was very suburban I decided on the slightly slower route. The shop was gorgeous full of lovely toys, and crafts, and books, and we spent a long time in there exploring.

I was quite satisfied with our selection of purchases on leaving- lots of art materials, some crafty bits, and main lesson books. It was great to make a longer journey, and have such a pleasurable time in a shop. I only purchased one book in there today- this one on making paper rose windows.('Rose Window's and How to Make them' by Helga Meyerbroeker)
I've been thinking about getting it for quite a while, but particularly since we did some window stars with some friends, they had a copy of this book.
So I'm thinking that we'll make some rose windows for Christmas- to decorate the place a bit, will be interesting to see how complex/easy they are.
