• FABRIC HOUSE

    I finally got the curtains and the “door” in place. It may have taken a year, but now our fabric house is complete. Woop woop! First of all I must apologise for the pictures are not that great. Not only is the carpet in…

  • REGRESSION DAYS

    I had an involuntary break in my blogging last week. At regular intervals my toddler seems to have a big development jump, which in turn, reorganises our day-to-day life. It’s like a cycle we keep repeating and there are always a few regression days,…

  • PAPER, MY NEW FRIEND

      Bookbinding This is a relatively recent interest of mine. Well it feels recent with time flying so fast. Actually I have wanted to do bookbinding for quite some time, but for some reason it seems a very difficult thing for me to…

  • JEWELLERY

    This is going to be a real trip down memory late for me. Back in 2009 (*holy cow, that’s almost a decade ago!*) I had just graduated from Uni and my levels inspiration was at an all time low. I really needed to…

  • NEEDLE FELTED EASTER EGGS

    Spring is officially here! Yey! Though I must admit, I have a bit of a love/hate relationship with spring time. I love all the colour, the light and all the new life, but it´s also a time when I always get ill. I…

  • CROCHET

    Crochet is so much fun! It’s quick, easy and sooooo versatile.  As a teenager I had dabbled with some crochet. Making hats in weird random shapes and attempting to make a poncho before realising just how much effort it would take. But it…

  • KNITTING

    Knitting really took a long time for me to learn. I could do a basic scarf and a hat but anything that required more shaping was out of the question for years. As a teenager I would visit my grandmother every summer and…
