DIY Foraged Triangle Christmas Wreath

*This post is sponsored by The 7th Chamber If you haven’t got it already (where have you been?) I am big on the Christmas crafting. And obviously I’m big on craft and DIY anyway – I have pursued it all my life – but there’s something even more special about making around the festive period. It’s about creating the traditions and carrying them on for generations. Bringing friends and family together to catch up and laugh over the worlds longest paper chain. It’s about doing Christmas your way. This is the perfect tutorial for bringing people together. Taking a walk around… Read More

DIY Watercolour Printed Fabric Bauble Christmas Decorations

Have you ever noticed that Christmas decorations are all, well.. a bit hard? Obviously they need to be quite sturdy to deal with the barrage of abuse they get from children, animals and adults – who definitely regretted not untangling them before putting them away last year eh? And it’s not like I have a problem with them being well built for the job but where are all the cozy, warming, soft and squishy decorations? Even balloons seem to be banished from the festive decor scene (watch out for those tree spikes!) But look, it’s ok. Because we can put… Read More

12 Styled Days of Christmas & Stocking DIY

You might of guessed already but I’ll shout it from the rooftops anyway. I love Christmas! I love twinkling lights, warm drinks, treating yourself to those little indulgent treats you would usually feel guilty about and most of all, I love how merry and happy people are around this time. So you can imagine how delighted I was when Teri from The Lovely Draw asked me to work with 11 other amazing, Christmas obsessed bloggers and West Elm to create a 12 day styling marathon of beautiful tabletops based on our favourite festive traditions. I chose my favourite part of Christmas… Read More

So I’ve put together this gift guide that are not only simple and beautiful but also useful for everyday life! 1. This beautiful Boulder Pink Kosui Mug is perfect for a calm morning coffee 2.

Craft Business Books to make 2016 the Best Year Yet

Last January I made a whole bunch of new years resolutions that I did not follow up on. In fact I don’t even remember what they were, so I know I didn’t spend a lot of time trying to make them happen. This year (or should that be next?) I’m making a resolution to be more organised and make more time for reading. It might seem early to start talking about new years resolutions but I want to start the new year flying with my new planner and with tons of new ideas after my Christmas reading. Why wait? Pop… Read More

DIY Scented Candle Gifts & Free Printable labels

One of the biggest mistakes I make around Christmas is making more work for myself. I love making gifts for my friends and family but get so lost in the idea that what I’m making has to be incredibly elaborate and complicated to be received well. It’s something I think a lot of my maker friends suffer from too. We think that if something is too simple or “easy” it’s not worth as much as a shop bought present. This is ridiculous. I know that if I buy a machine made, off the shelf candle, very little effort has gone… Read More
