    About

    My mum is 82 and lost her husband (my dad) nearly 20 years ago. She has met a lovely man, also in his eighties. They got married last year and this is the cake I decorated for them, in crochet. My mum loves owls so this seemed the perfect centre. Her husband loves gardening so I crocheted roses. They really loved it and still have the centre piece to enjoy.

        Thank you. They are lovely people and I so hope they have a good number of years together. I think crochet decorations work really well, because you have a keepsake.

      That is just so lovely what a great way to decorate a cake. I hope your Mum and her husband have a long and happy marriage. There is hope for all of us!
