About Me

I am a woman living in the north of England. While I have no training and qualifications in crafts of any kind I love trying out crafts and often achieve some good results. I am writing this blog to share my successes and failures with you and hopefully inspire you to ‘have a go’. I want to encourage you to get involved in crafts regardless of previous experience. You will gain some quality time to create and relax.

As a keen amateur gardener I will share all my adventures in the garden with you. I am always trying to grow something new either to look at or to eat so I will keep you updated with progress. My garden is not large but I keep it very full! Gardening is a great way to unwind and practice mindfulness. Just be in the garden and forget everything else.

There will, undoubtedly, be pictures of my cat, Emily, shared regularly as she often assists! I hope that you enjoy following my attempts and get crafting and gardening yourself.
