Gorgeous Paper Merry Christmas tape – Pre-Christmas Shopping list

    LOVE some pretty wrapping tape – and this is paper tape, so it’s dead versatile. You can tear it, write on it, use it for crafts or present wrapping, and it is low tack so can be stuck onto most things and peeled off again. This 1.8m tape features a pattern of the words “Merry Christmas” in between 2 small grey hearts. It is cream with a scalloped edge and a grey outer edge. Spotted over at...

The Works – Utterly Bargainous Craft Supplies

Last Christmas, quite by accident, I fell over a website for a company called The Works. No, I know, I was probably the last one to hear about them, but just in case, I’m here to spread the joy.

Bostik Craft Blog – not what you’d normally use it for… #TinyRoomMakeover

I LOVE this magic stuff-in-a-tube. Properly LOVE it. Want to see...

‘Easter Egg’ Easy Easter Biscuits – perfect afternoon baking with the children

I spent the most perfect Good Friday making these ‘Easter Egg’ easy Easter Biscuits – the 6yr old did the whole thing with me (after three boys, the patience of a girl with the fiddly bits constantly amazes me) and the big boys came in for the ‘fun’ bit. Easy Easter Biscuits – What you need: 200g butter, at room temperature  (using a buttery spread makes the dough softer when chilled, and...
