Today's Craftmas is all about upcycling, which may or may not be a craft in itself, but its a very crafty activity. And a canny one! I'm very pleased with my upcycled box for storing my journals, and other bits and bobs. Come and join me on Craftmas and find out how I did it

Even the cats are queuing for the best seat to watch Vlogmas. Mine is Craftmas this year and the prequel video is on YouTube today. Playlist will be on my channel page and I'll post here when a new video is ready. Each one will be up at 5am UK time as I've done more forward planning this year so you can watch while eating brekky or during pre-holiday insomnia. 💜🎄🎁⌚😸😸

A new podcast will be up before daybreak 🌅 even before I am out on my early morning walk. Beautiful light at this time of year 💡. Episode 127 is about crafting disasters 😱🙄🙈

Quick shop this morning to get the weekly veggies and *just* popped in to the local charity shop and antique Market and these beauties pleaded to come home with me. How could I say no? Altogether they cost less than the veggies 😏 #lovevintage #vintagefinds #vintagetextiles #firstdaycovers #floraldesign

The second video in my mini series about dyeing paper with natural dyes from plants is out today. I so enjoyed making this and experimenting with gloopy paints made with my natural dye extracts using a food thickener! A bit unorthodox and I wasn't sure it would work.

If I had some better stencils I think it would have been all the more impressive but that has been a good excuse to search out some more really good ones. I want to repeat this process but using strong instant coffee as the paint. So many possibilities!

A new video on dyeing paper and card with natural

A new video on dyeing paper and card with natural dyes is up on my channel this afternoon. It's part 1 of several and I'm calling it a mini series 🤣. I've used several leaves from the garden plus avocado and really pleased with the vintage pastel rainbow I got. I love experimenting with natural dyeing and I hope you enjoy watching. Next Tuesday its natural dye paints and stencilling and the Tuesday after ecoprinting! Very excited about the results of both.

In other news the vintage bag MAL mini series is starting soon too so make sure you are subbed to my channel 💞💕👍🏻❤️😘

I've been quiet recently because its the time of year when I am deep in advent packing. All the international orders will have gone by Weds morning and the UK ones will be ready for final packing for shipping the first week in November. So this week will be a turning point and I will be able to get back to social media.

This weekend I decided to have a bit of time off as I was starting to fray around the edges. I think I might make a video showing all the work involved in advent prep and release it next February or something. Until I did this myself, I never gave it a thought and so also I am sending a big HUG and shout out to my fellow small business friends who are doing the same thing.

Part of my downtime included taking an online live Facebook class with @maremis_small_art, who has hundreds of fantastic videos on collaging, art journaling, mixed media and all that lovely stuff. This is what I produced, which does look a bit like a five-year old snuck in and did it, but the whole point was that I was transported away from my mental to-do list and the advents for three blissful hours. I could not have produced this stuff last weekend...

I am so grateful for creators like Marta and Barbara of @49dragonflies for sharing their skills. They and many like them make it possible for me to sit in my own crafting space and absorb new skills without going out in the October rain 🙂

Once the advents are done this week I will be back to making videos for YouTube and Patreon and yarn dyeing and getting the videos and posts done to get the crochet bag MAL underway. This will be very relaxed and just there for you to join in when you would like. I'll probably include several bags and just keep going into 2022 as a relaxing winter MAL.

Creativity is never wasted and the more you do, the more you have... I've been making the most of the time I've had because I've not felt like crocheting by following the great tutorials by Barbara of @49dragonflies and having a great time just having a go! I really hope you enjoy the catch up (its on YT this evening at 7pm) and I'll be back next week with a full podcast - and show you more of what I have been crocheting and doing on the yarny front 💜

A new podcast is out this evening. And its a bit of a surprise to me too 😜 But I seem to have a lot to say... a recap of my trip with details of my sea glass finds and what I've been up to in the cutting and sticking department...

I am now addicted to watching YouTubers who make junk journals, particularly the lovely Barbara @49dragonflies who is so inspiring. I am really enjoying have a go at junk journalling and altering books and its fun just to play, create and learn by making a mess and a load of mistakes! I can tell I am gaining skills and I'm so enjoying the process and the journey.

There is a bit of crochet in there somewhere - see if you can spot it! 😆 Don't you just love rabbit holes and falling down them? 💜
