Mod Podge fridge magnets


A while ago I entered a competition for a radio. Of course I didnt win the radio, I did however get sent 5 fridge magnets from a bacon company...(yes thats totally random!)

Summer is here! (for a few days anyway)



Every morning I HAVE to start my day with a cup of tea (I am a zombie if I am tea deprived). During the winter my mug is more of a large bucket to be honest, but when it gets a bit warmer, I switch down to this beauty, my Cath Kidston cup and saucer. Just looking at it makes me feel summery!
As you may have gathered I am rather partial to a bit of Cath Kidston, now I just need to magic up enough money to buy the full set..its a dream for the future lol.

Bit of a pointless post really but I thought I'd recognise the changing of the mug day on my blog. Happy mug day!!

Rug update

I've been meaning to post this for a few weeks now but ITS FINISHED! It took me a few years (omg I'm slow at latch hook!) but its done. I actually miss latch hooking now though! Should I buy a new one and start the whole process again?? I'll probably have grandchildren by the time I finish another one lol

Cath Kidston Crochet cushion

One of my christmas presents this year was this crochet set from Cath Kidston. Now I dont normally buy ready prepared kits for crafting however my darling partner must have seen me admiring the tin it came in online! (and yes it does look very nice sitting on my book shelves in the lounge)

It didnt take long to finish BUT

Crochet dungarees - free pattern!

While browsing the internet for something to crochet my son I noticed there seems to be a major shortage of patterns for boys! Well a few days of not having the internet (and moving house.) and these were born!
