Crefftio hanes

Crefftio hanes ~ Crafting history


“What should you do to put your body to good use? Most people have no idea. A craftsman who borrows some tools will try to make the best possible use of them while they are available. Your body, too, is actually on loan to you for the time being, for the brief period left before it is taken back from you by death. Had you better not use it to practice learning true reality while you can?”
― Dilgo Khyentse Rinpoche

Rydyn ni'n mynd i fod yn gofalu am y Sam a Zoe am ddau ddiwrnod yr wythnos dros yr haf. Felly heddiw aethon ni i'r dre prynu deunyddiau crefft i wneud pethau gyda nhw (them). 

Ar ôl brecinio yn Wagamama, aethon ni i siopa. Prynon ni'r rhan fwyaf o bethau i ni angen yn Søstrene Grene (Chwiorydd Gwyrdd) siop Ddenmarc yng nghanolfan Dewi Sant.  Maen nhw'n dipyn fel 'Flying Tiger' (sydd hefyd yn Ddaneg) ond gyda mwy o ddeunyddiau crefft. 

Roedden ni'n flinedig ar ôl cerdded o gwmpas y dref (mae'n fwy blinedig na dim ond cerdded). Aethon ni i siop goffi (Coffee #1) cyn dal y bws adre.

Mewn cornel o’r siop roedd adeiladwaith o frics a cherrig efallai mewn cofio'r brodordy (friary) a oedd yma. Mae'n mae'n cynnwys ffenestr garreg gyda phaentiad o Orthwr Castell Caerdydd  gyda geiriau "The Original Motte and Bailey of Cardiff Castle was built by Norman invaders in the 11th Century. The later stone keep you see today was taken by Owain Glyndŵr in the 1404 revolt against Anglo-Norman occupation.". Tipyn bach o hanes yno.

We are going to be looking after Sam and Zoe for two days a week over the summer. So today we went to town to buy craft materials to make things with them.

After brunch at Wagamama, we went shopping. We bought most of the things we needed at Søstrene Grene (Green Sisters) a Danish shop in St David's centre. They are a bit like 'Flying Tiger' (which is also Danish) but with more craft materials.

We were tired after walking around town (it's more tiring than just walking). We went to a coffee shop (Coffee #1) before catching the bus home.

In a corner of the shop there was a brick and stone structure perhaps in memory of the friary that was here. It contains a stone window with a painting of Cardiff Castle Keep with the words "The Original Motte and Bailey of Cardiff Castle was built by Norman invaders in the 11th Century. The later stone keep you see today was taken by Owain Glyndŵr in the 1404 revolt against Anglo-Norman occupation.". A little bit of history there.
