After a couple of days away hosting workshops last week, and arriving home VERY late due to rail issues, I decided to give myself a day off. It’s a rare treat these days so I wanted to make use of it and have a little play time.
This coincided with the stockpiling of new goodies reaching ‘use it or lose it’ proportions so I chose to dive into those for this make.Read More »

Well, well, well. What can I say. That was surely a week and a bit!
Grab a cup of tea or coffee and your favourite biscuit and let me tell you all about it.
Well, you’ll not believe it but I have managed to finish something AND write a blog post about it – just.
For this project I decided to have a fiddle with a set of drawers.
It was some time ago that I bought a few sets of MDF craft room storage kits from Fernli designs and I meant to blog about them but it totally slipped my mind!
Anyway, I stumbled across the images that I had taken in my archives recently so thought that I would pop a quick blog post on here about them.Read More »
