Happy Monday everyone! I’m looking forward to the end of January and a new month. January has flown by but I admit to being excited by warmer weather, longer days and February.

You may remember…
I have a lovely crafty competition to share with you all today. As you know, this year my aim is to make at least one thing a week from my craft stash, and encourage you all to make things too! I found this lovely Gingerbread Man Bunting Sewing Kit in my stash and thought I would…
I’ve mentioned a few times that I’ve been following Slimming World for a while now. I had a massive blip over the Christmas period but I’m pleased to say that I’m now back on track 🙂 I find Slimming World pretty easy to follow but the one thing I miss is baking. I love baking…
Before Christmas I received the Winter Craftpod box. This is my favourite subscription box at the moment. It comes quarterly which means I actually have time to make what’s inside and enjoy it!
