... and a Paint Swatch Needle Case

Here is a really quick and easy way to make a needle case using paint swatches... inspired by a fab post by Sew Many Ways

... and a Paint Swatch Mini Notebook

I'm a big fan of making lists and have to write things down before I forget them. Trouble is this often means scribbling things on the back of an envelope.... then losing the envelope! So I decided to make some mini notebooks in an attempt to keep my lists in one place!

... and Gift Bag Transformations!

We were delighted to be asked recently by Carrier Bag Shop to review and transform some of their gift paper bags by adding our own crafty twist to them*! With all the gifts we've been making, and because we are hoping to enter the scary world of selling our items soon, we thought it would be a great opportunity to try a variety of styles of packaging them...

* DISCLOSURE - we were given one of each of the bags below for the purposes of this review. All opinions are our own.

... and an "Attempt" at a Craft Room

One of my favourite things to look at on Pinterest is other people's craft rooms. I live in a constant state of admiration and envy. I thought if I planned to do a post on mine, it would encourage me to sort out my stuff and have a general tidy up. It is now my favourite room in our house (of course!!) 

... and Paint Swatch Valentine's Cards

YAY! Its Valentine's Day soon! Those who know me well know there's a hint of sarcasm in that exclamation, mostly because although the sentiment of giving a loved one a token of your love is well, lovely(!)... I do not get the whole commercial aspect of it. Especially when times are hard. However, you've got to give a card so... following on from our Paint Swatch Christmas Cards, I thought I'd try some Valentine's cards.
