30 Days to a more Creative You Challenge

There were many things I learnt from our 2016 survey (thanks to your openness and honesty), but one of the stand out points was that most of you want to be more creative. Which is great! That’s what I’m here for right! But whatever your situation you told me it can be difficult to find the time, money and supplies needed to build your skills and to eventually feel confident, not only with your own creative ideas but with your ability to carry them out. You might be surprised to hear this but I can sympathise. It’s one of the reasons… Read More

DIY Copper Wire Easter Egg Baskets

I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again – Easter has got to be one of my favourite holidays to DIY here on the blog. I’m not sure if it’s that we’re edging into those bright, spring days which are getting longer and warmer (finally!), or feeling like I have tons of energy after being drowsy all winter, but I’m enjoying the build up to chocolate eggs and cute bunnies day. (Which is what I like to call the big E) For me no brand encapsulates this spring mood as well as Anthropologie. I am in LOVE with their fresh,… Read More

Maker Feature : Nancy Straughan – Print designer

When I started We Make Collective one of my biggest goals was to work and collaborate with more creative people. I knew this was a project that would open those doors for me and I’ve been lucky to have some amazing contributors on board from the very beginning. The one thing we haven’t actually managed to do yet is work with an expert in their field to create a kit based on the materials and techniques they use everyday. It’s something I want to do with each and every kit but working to a tight deadline can mean we don’t… Read More

So Easter might just be one of my favourite times of year on the blog.

This little DIY Easter Bunny Cactus Planter has been on my to do list for many months.

10 Stunning DIY Gifts for the best Mothers Day

I feel a bit silly admitting this but it was only a couple of years ago I realised that Mother’s Day was celebrated at different times all around the world. Until then I had just presumed that it was an internationally celebrated day and that we of course all give thanks to our lovely mums all on one big, gooey, special day. So you can imagine my surprise/ mild panic when two months after the day here in the UK, the rest of the world is suddenly blogging and getting ready for it all over again. So after feeling like… Read More

DIY Velvet Covered Books

I’ve always loved the look of having books as decoration. The idea that something can be useful or interesting and look fantastic is the dream! I have a lot of books I keep because I love them but, because I love them so much they’re looking a little on the ‘used’ side. So I’m taking all the hardback books and giving them a makeover with faux suede and velvet fabric.

How to Earn Passive Income for a Creative Online Business

How great is blogging!? Watching my friends online and in real life crafting their own careers, learning how to turn their passions into businesses and doing it with so much authenticity is awe inspiring. Thanks to the Internet you can bring home the bacon and be frying it up in the pan at the same time. I see working moms who can spend time with their families, getting to spend extra time with their children whilst at the same time providing for them and helping with the family income. I see women who, given the flexibility of setting your own… Read More
