A year ago this was a small cutting from a friends parent plant. Just look at it now!

Mobile Blogging.

So I have a new phone and I am very impressed by the time it takes to post on my blog. Hopefully I will be able to post more in the future on the go and with having a better camera,  I will be able to take photos on the go, rather than having to take my rather large camera around everywhere with me.

Look out for more mini blog posts from me in the near future!

Comparison Review of White Pens for Scrapbooking/Journalling (UK)

As a crafter in the UK, it's hard to find card making, scrapbooking or art journalling products that I see featured on American videos and blogs, I can't just pop down to Wal-Mart or the Dollar Store, don't have them over here!

So I thought I would do a comparison review on the white pens available from the UK for the UK!

Thinking of buying a white pen? Check this vid out before splashing your cash...

I've noticed that most of the videos and comparisons of white pens for Scrapbooking, card making and Journalling are from the USA which isn't great for us British! 

I have had a bit of a white pen fetish, so therefore spent a little bit of monies on a selection of white pens and with mixed experimental results I wanted to show y'all what works, what don't and what pen really sucks for the money.

The Toad in the Pond.

Just a quick update about the pond and how it's coming along, you remember, at the end of summer last year I pretty much broke my back digging through pure red Shropshire clay to put in a pre-fab pond my Mum had given me. Three weeks later I had already got two Frogs and a Toad in it.

Fast forward to today and I no longer have Frogs, don't know what happened to them, maybe they had an argument with the Toads or something, but I now have two Toads in the pond...

The Garden : After the Storm

It rained, it poured, it pissed it down.

My god did it rain! I have never seen rain like it before, apart from a few years ago but that was the volcanoes fault and there aint been no volcano recently.

Anywho, thought you might like to see some photographs of my poor garden after the rain monsoon...

Hope you enjoyed... please leave a comment!

Shabby Chic Vintage Mobile

Well it's taken a couple of days but I finally got around to finishing my vintage mobile.

I had thought of this while in a lot of pain, waiting at the hospital for a doctor to have a look at my toe, turns out that dropping an iron on your toe will indeed break it.

I made a video of the process of making this mobile (not breaking my toe...) so please watch & enjoy!
