Making Miffy mail!
The school holidays have given us lot of lovely time to craft and experiment.

Solar system scratch art
As Baker Ross ambassadors we were sent a selection of craft kits to review. The latest one was this fun set of Solar System scratch art containing 6 designs including space ships and planets.

Clangers sun catchers

Hand stamped plant markers
I have a small addiction to San Pellegrino sparkling fruit drinks, especially in the Summer months. The only problem with this is our recycling bin is full of empty cans. I’ve been looking for ways to recycle them and made some hand stamped plant markers for the garden. I don’t have the greenest fingers but…
