I thought my crafting mojo had well and truly left me over the last few months what with wedding preparations and my toe injury. As Lottie commented, sick leave = crafting time but I haven’t felt like making anything, until today. I read about the free Black Apple Doll months ago but thought I would…

Lovely post
The joy of being at home resting my foot means that I am ready to pounce on the postman before he has a chance to take parcels back to the depot. Today I received a lovely parcel from Sam as I was the lucky winner of her recent blogiversary giveaway. She sent me a beautiful…
Poor me
So, 16 days before our wedding and I have managed to break the big toe on my right foot. I stubbed my toe yesterday – which hurt like mad – but couldn’t do anything about it as I was up in north Scotland for work. By the time I got home and looked at my…
wedding invites

I've got one of these
In tacky wedding news we don’t yet have a date but we do have a countdown clock and it’s wonderfully kitsch. We’re currently on the Isle of Wight looking at more venues and re-visiting a couple of favourite venues. I’m experiencing the full horror of dress appointments tomorrow! Wish me luck. PS I’ve finally turned…
