Eek! I can't believe that Halloween is only two weeks away! with everything that's been going on, this year seems to have passed us by twice as fast as usual. We won't be able to go to any parties this year or out trick or treating but we're still planning to make the...
I really can't believe how fast Christmas is rolling around this year, it seems as if the last one has only just been and gone. I think we're all expecting this one to be a bit different from the normal with everything that's going on in the world right now. Our...
Following my last post with the popsicle stick bumble bees I wanted to share these cute little popsicle stick dragonflies with you all. They're really similar to the bees and just as simple to make. Dragonflies are so beautiful, we see some really lovely brightly...
How adorable are these little popsicle stick bumble bees? over the last couple of weeks my little guy has been learning about patterns at school and has since been making patterns with almost everything he finds. This afternoon he came home from school and emptied out...
Todays craft idea is the third in our range of farmyard bookmarks! These sweet little sheep corner bookmarks are just so simple and easy to make. We all read a lot of books in this house so its handy to have loads of these little bookmarks lying around to pick up as...
When it comes to the holidays we love to have as many of our decorations handmade as we possibly can. so naturally with Halloween right around the corner we've been trying to come up with as many fun creepy crawly themed crafts as possible. I'd seen some really cute...
Ever since he was tiny my son has always loved going to see the ducks. Where we live we're lucky to have some lovely little duck ponds locally and he loves going with his pound coin to buy some feed for them. The ponds are always quiet and the ducks are always out in...
It's been a quiet couple of weeks on the crafting front. Like many others we've slowly been trying to adjust to the new school routine with the new covid regulations that are in place. Whilst we still find time for crafting its obviously not as much as it was before...
Can you believe how close it is to halloween? It feels like its only just been and gone! It's been an unusual year with everything that's been going on and there has been so many ups and downs. My little guy finally started back at school last week and whilst I know...
Todays make is only a little one but we still love this paper doily peacock craft. He's so sweet and simple to make which made it easy to squeeze in some crafting on this busy day! My little guy is back to school tomorrow so today has been a busy day washing and...
Inspired by our earlier paper plate spider web craft, this laced paper plate pumpkin is a real cutie. We love these lacing crafts, they're so relaxed and often we make ours whilst lounging out on the sofas. My little guy particularly likes them as they give him a lot...
Were back again with another Halloween craft and I must admit that I absolutely love this paper plate spider web. We sat and made ours whilst we were watching one of my sons favourite movies and it was just such a fun craft to relax with and to make slowly. We can't...
Its never too early for a Halloween craft. It's always so much fun every year crafting decorations and making costumes (or buying them from the supermarket when we leave it too Late!). We don't know what Halloween will be like with the current covid situation but we...
Its been a bit of a funny day for us today, the rain hasn't stopped all day and the thunder has been just as keen too. We never really go out when its thundering as my two really aren't keen on it, so we've just spent the day plodding about the house. We did however...
Sometimes the best crafts are the most simple ones! My little guy has had so much fun making and playing with this cute little cardboard slithering snake craft. Since lockdown started back in March we've been ordering so much more stuff to the house rather than going...
Todays craft is another sweet and easy one. This little cupcake liner flower craft is perfect to make for both gifting and for displaying at home. My 4yo found these simple enough to make on his own and didnt want any help at all made! He actually made me a whole...
How sweet is this little dolly peg dancer craft? We've had a huge pack of dolly pegs stashed at the back of the cupboard for ages and today my neice decided it was time we made something with them. We'd just finished making some yarn tassel doll keyrings for her...

How cute are these little keyrings? We bought a huge ball of white wool a little while ago and I've been trying to figure out something to use it on for a while now. Then, the other day I made some tassels to go on a cushion and my son was instantly obsessed with...
How cute are these little rocking paper plate ships? We made these yesterday ahead of our coastal walk that we went on today and both of my two kids are still totally fascinated by them. Every time they walk past they give them a tap and watch them rock for a bit...
