Woodland Christmas ornaments

December 23, 2013December 22, 2013 ~ Wolves in London ~ 8 Comments

Struck down for the past few days with a horrible pre-Christmas lurgy, I'm just popping in to share some photos I finally got round to taking of my air dry clay Christmas tree decorations... Now, unless mine is the only blog you read, I'm sure you will have seen variations of these at a number … Continue reading Woodland Christmas ornaments

Christmas crafting

December 17, 2013 ~ Wolves in London ~ 3 Comments

After my frazzled, manic late-night making sessions of last December, I decided not to go for any homemade Christmas presents this year. A rather sensible decision, for me, what with temporarily living at my Mum’s, not having access to any of my supplies or, frankly, much time or energy spare at the moment… Everyone in … Continue reading Christmas crafting

Liberty fabric baubles

December 12, 2013December 12, 2013 ~ Wolves in London ~ 7 Comments

I know, I know, I had you at “Liberty fabric baubles,” didn’t I? There’s not much need to write anything more… I made up these little beauties a few weeks ago for my sister-in-law who was running a craft stall at a charity fair at the weekend. I’m not sure that nine little baubles will … Continue reading Liberty fabric baubles

17 homemade Christmas presents

December 9, 2013 ~ Wolves in London ~ 6 Comments

This time last year, I put together a round up of my top 20 tutorials for homemade Christmas presents that I’d found elsewhere on the web, for the delectation of my lovely readers reader. (Ha! That is actually almost true. I had only been writing the blog for a few weeks and I was so … Continue reading 17 homemade Christmas presents

Carrot and rhubarb jam (aka Christmas in a jar)

December 6, 2013December 5, 2013 ~ Wolves in London ~ 11 Comments

When we moved all our possessions into boxes and suitcases a few weeks ago and decamped to my Mum’s (so the builders could take our house apart and, hopefully, put it back together to be much better) I brought a gigantic box of tins and jars. When I say gigantic, I mean gigantic. It took … Continue reading Carrot and rhubarb jam (aka Christmas in a jar)

Garden moodboard: December

December 2, 2013December 1, 2013 ~ Wolves in London ~ 6 Comments

Since I haven't seen our house for a fortnight now, I can only imagine what the garden is looking like in December. (Covered in builder's tools, bricks and building dust I would guess...) Here at my Mum's, I've a few evergreen plants to show you that really sum up the festive month of December. Actually, … Continue reading Garden moodboard: December

DIY advent calendar

November 29, 2013November 29, 2013 ~ Wolves in London ~ 25 Comments

I’m a complete curmudgeon when it comes to advance Christmas preparations. Don’t get me wrong, I absolutely love Christmas. Just not in September. (Or August, October or November, for that matter…) And, as we all know, September is generally the time you start seeing Christmas bits and pieces popping up. The first few times you … Continue reading DIY advent calendar

November 27, 2013November 28, 2013 ~ Wolves in London ~ 11 Comments

It's hard to admit this, even to myself, but I can't foresee a huge amount of making things occurring over the next few months that we’re staying at my Mum’s while our house is a building site. Sure, I packed a few bits and pieces in the optimistic hope that I would be able to … Continue reading Busy Needles

Advice please: T-shirt refashion

November 21, 2013 ~ Wolves in London ~ 17 Comments

As a teenager in the ‘90s, I was a real little indie kid. My best friend lived near the infamous Old Trout pub in Windsor, gig venue for every indie band ever on their way up to success (and many who would never again reach such heady heights as the 250-capacity audience at the Old … Continue reading Advice please: T-shirt refashion

Garden moodboard: November

November 11, 2013November 10, 2013 ~ Wolves in London ~ 7 Comments

It's been something of a frantic November, so far, with the excitement / stress of packing all the boxes in time for the builders to arrive. But yesterday I managed to grab a few minutes to go out into the garden for my November moodboard photos. It was a gloriously sunny Autumn day, here in … Continue reading Garden moodboard: November

Love this idea from @nurturingfolk — 60 pictures from 2022, set to 1 second each and don’t overthink it or stress!
We had a gorgeous Christmas at my sister’s in Gloucestershire, where the houses are beautiful especially when the sun sets across the valley and bathes everything in a golden glow.
Had to get some of the snowy delight onto my grid…
A magical week in Umbria at @ahavenforstories. Morning mists, golden sunsets, a whole host of amazing writers who have become new friends, and the absolute best tutors: @noughticulture @elisevalmorbida and Tobias Jones. (I squeezed in a tiny bit of writing too 😉…) Am already planning my return next year.
