Unique Greetings Cards
Next up in my revamped photos are the greetings cards. This was how I originally started crafting many moons ago. My style has changed a bit since I first started, but I have never been into the ‘cutesy’ or more traditional type cards. Recycled materials have a place here too with the use of old […]

Upcycled Notebooks
Next up in my updated photoshoot are my upcycled notebooks. The ones made from floppy disks (all 3 sizes) are still my favourites. The original ones are spiral bound but I also now do longstitch versions, & hoping to add coptic binding to the mix. The flat lego plates also make great book covers but […]

I Used To Be A Plastic Bottle

That’s A Wrap
Well, that’s a wrap for this year. Thank you to everyone who came & bought things from me over the last couple of days. I hope to get properly back into the craft fair circuit next year. Also hoping to get the website revamped, and maybe get some online selling on the go as well.

Lego Notebooks
Batch of Lego notebooks ready for the craft fair. I had forgotten how much fun it is to make these. I have a huge stash of ‘random paper’ ( plain, lined, graph, music, account book etc). Mostly from charity shops, although nowadays (ie post-covid) there is much less of this type of thing in charity […]

I’m Back!
Really I have been here all the time, still making things but ‘proper work’ got in the way more & more. Now I have retired I can get back into just making stuff. I did love my job but it was becoming less enjoyable due to endless paperwork, bureaucracy, & internal ‘politics’. I am hoping […]

These are a few of my favourite things….
Most of the cards I make are one-offs, as what I make usually depends on what idea pops into my head, what papers I have to hand, what my favoutite colour is at the moment & what mood I am in. There are however a few recurring themes that prove to be popular & fortunately […]
