    Disclosure – I was sent some of these products to review My children love Halloween. It’s a fun season and with a trip to the pumpkin patch, carving pumpkins and making a Halloween gingerbread house, we certainly have kept the fun in Halloween. Tomorrow we’re going on a scavenger hunt around the neighbourhood to look for decorated houses, and I have some really fun Halloween food from M&S for a spooky tea party. I received some Infusible Ink products from Cricut and thought they would be perfect for some Halloween crafting. Cricut Halloween coasters supplies: Cricut Maker Cricut Infusible Ink…

    Our American friends are really excited about celebrating Fourth of July or Independence Day next week. This is a  federal holiday celebrated in the United States which commemorates the Declaration of Independence of the United States, on July 4th, 1776. Our 4th of July paper banner craft is really popular at this time of year so I thought I would add another 4th July craft, a Cricut-made Stars & Stripes Mason Jar craft which would make a lovely table decoration for any celebrations.

With birthdays and anniversaries, I’m never short of people to make for. The only thing I don’t have are the svg files to use on my machine.

    I can’t believe Easter is only a few days away. Although I’ve been planning everything for weeks it now seems to have snuck up on me.

However, we love celebrating Easter and I want to make a special effort to create something fun this year.

You all know how much I love my Cricut Maker so looked for free Easter Egg Hunt svg files. I found a really fun…

    I think celebrations on St Patrick’s Day are going to be pretty subdued this year, thanks to the outbreak of Covid-19. St Patrick’s Day parades are being cancelled across Ireland, although it looks like the St Patricks’s Day parade taking place in London this weekend is still going ahead. You can still celebrate St Patricks’ Day at home and kids will love this easy Leprechaun paper plate craft.

    If you’re a parent of a child in Infant or Junior School then I’m sure you will be aware that World Book Day is coming up next week. Our family are not fans of dressing up so we are relieved that the children only have to take their favourite book in as they will have plenty of time to read during school. Viking recently asked if I would like to craft something special for World Book Day. They knew that we all love reading and asked us to remember a story that sparked our imagination, then craft a scene, character…
