This Christmas gift was 6 months in the making. And is not quite finished either. But the 25th December deadline insisted I deliver this labour of love. Who would be worthy of 6 months of my craft time – my miniatures loving parents. I created this fairy-tale walk in wardrobe for them. Let me walk […]
This is part 4 of my 5 part creative inspiration travel photos. Part 1, part 2 and part 3 if you would like to read the first 3 installments. On the second day in Florence, 1st of October, we set off for breakfast. After coffee and delicious pastries we continued our on-foot exploration of the […]

I won a Christmas stocking kit a few years back. A felt kit with super clear instructions and pre-punched holes, so super duper easy. Always wanting a challenge and trying new [and usually difficult] crafts it took me a while to get into it. Plus my little man was too young to ‘get’ Christmas but […]
