Planted up two tiny (probably ill-fated) succulents. Finished off a project for Mollie Makes magazine (and amused myself making a GIF to share here once it's published). Bought a challenging new book. Taken over 400 photos. Watched this thought-provoking bit... Continue reading

Such a great post, and especially interesting to people (like me!) who are thinking about products which are hand-designed, rather than hand-made. I'm also trying very hard to justify a new chopping board right now . . . they're SO lovely, especially the peas. :)

. . . for a sunny Wednesday, just because I'm not sure I ever got round to sharing it here. I hope that love and spring are both in the air, wherever you are. x Continue reading

That's such a lovely thing to say - thanks a million, Ruth. I've just clicked through to yours and bookmarked for a good, long read later on. It looks gorgeous! Am so glad you stopped by and included a link back. :)

Ha! Taking revenge on inanimate objects is *always* a satisfying thing. :)

You're such a doll. Thank you. Have been meaning to drop over and leave a comment under your MinN post, but swear I have done nothing but write and edit photos for the last 24 hours (ok, maybe 5 or 6 hrs sleep, but I even ate breakfast one-handed this morning). Oy, deadlines. Numberly inspo was perfect kick-start, tho' - you're an all-round inspiration, I tells ya! Also, it's probably best not to mention your book cape because you *know* I might have to make you one now... xx

So, I thought it was probably about time I joined in with the My Month In Numbers blog meme my superhero pal Julie has been running for the last couple of years. A little late, maybe, but supposedly that’s better... Continue reading

Before I post the winner of last week's Mollie Makes Christmas book giveaway, I thought you might like a quick behind-the-scenes look at how one of the other projects from the book went from sketch to end result. The finger... Continue reading

Thanks everyone for such lovely comments. I kind of wish you could all win - is going to be horrible only being able to pick one person (even though it'll be that mean old random number generator who does it for me)! x

There are definitely worse Christmas songs to have stuck in your head, I'd say! Thanks so much, NIcola.

Thanks so much, Margot - I love libraries where you can read magazines as well as books. :)

Thanks, Charlotte - am so glad you like it. If you're still having trouble finding the book locally (and just in case you don't win the giveaway...), try ordering online from the publisher's website, http://www.lovecrafts.co.uk/books/mollie-makes-christmas/ using voucher code 'MollieLoves' and it will only cost you £7.00. Hope that helps!

A few months ago, I was lucky enough to be asked if I'd like to contribute a couple of ideas to a new book. Mollie Makes Christmas is filled with the best collection of projects, including a beautiful paper Christmas... Continue reading

When I posted about Father's Day a couple of weeks ago, I mentioned there was an add-on project in the works, and - with just over a week to go - it's now ready for you to download and enjoy.... Continue reading

I'm so smitten with the picture I found for this week's Palette Pingpong. Beautiful, yes? It's via Better Homes & Gardens, and I can't wait to see both the colour palette and whatever it's inspired Miss Gabrielle to make. Join... Continue reading

Father's Day this year happens on the 17th June, exactly one month from today. My dad doesn't really hold with such celebrations, but - sshh, don't tell - he was definitely the person I had in mind when I made... Continue reading

Palette Pingpong this week is inspired by two of my favourite people. First of all - and as almost-always - Gabrielle, who challenged me with the prettiest of pictures. Sadly, I'm not sure my palette quite does justice to the... Continue reading

Carving your own stamps from household erasers is much easier than you might think. It’s a slightly more sophisticated take on the classic classroom art of potato-stamping. But unlike potatoes (which are a lot trickier to cut smoothly in half... Continue reading
