Muddy Puddles!
It’s been a long time coming but I finally got the toddler to jump in a puddle! Endless episodes of Peppa Pig (who loves to jump in puddles) and talking about how it would be great to jump in puddles *if* we had wellies on, the toddler finally decided to jump in a puddle. The…
Felt Mistletoe Kissing Ball
My project last weekend was cutting out felt mistletoe leaves to make a Mistletoe Kissing Ball. I love working with felt and couldn’t resist this adorable felt decoration to add to our collection.

Red and white candy wreath
I can’t believe it’s two weeks until Christmas. I felt so organised until I realised I hadn’t made half the decorations I wanted to. This evening I made a yarn wreath which was top of my list. It was a great project to do, especially as I didn’t need to buy anything. I covered the…
Viakal made my bathroom sparkle!
I’m the first to admit that cleaning and housekeeping take a back seat in my household. I’d much rather spend time with the children than worry about the state of the house. I received an email which made me laugh! “To showcase how effective Viakal really is, we would love for you to put your…
