Back in the mists of time, when I first started pinning all the things ever, I pinned a family set of handprints and filed it under – easy, peasy to do oneself – I’M TOTALLY DOING IT. But one day I found a kit which had everything I needed, and I’m nothing if not lazy […]
Remember two weeks ago I was all misty eyed at the promising bounty the garden held? Well that was before the thunderstorms left me with a swamp. All my flowers are mudspattered, the few that haven’t been pummelled to the ground that is. Weather is a cruel foe to the happy gardener. Bah. Brodie and […]

This week has been, um, challenging. The weather has been lovely, the kids have been lovely but the daily grind has been grinding. I haven’t had much time or energy for making things. And making things is like my fuel for life. It’s a catch 22. no ‘me’ time because there’s so much else to […]
I’ve been on the hunt for a train table since Brodie first started playing with trains. We constantly had tracks going from room to room and it never bothered me having his ‘stuff’ everywhere but in the last few months I’ve stood on a few crucial pieces and broken them so we had to find […]
When we moved into our house nearly three years ago (ahem) I decided on a bold plan to learn how to make roman blinds. Thank goodness Greig talked me into buying ‘temporary’ blinds for the kitchen which have temporarily hung in the kitchen for 3 years until I gathered the wherewithal to make some. A […]
