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...
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...
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...
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 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...
So, today's crafts is a little bit unusual but there is actually a little story behind it. Almost a year ago now my niece and I were out shopping and she spotted this adorable tea cup planter with some flowers in it. She absolutely loved it and really wanted to buy it...
With all the beautiful weather that we've been having lately weve been trying to get outdoors as much as we possibly can. The other day we took a short drive out to a local lake and went for a walk around it. It was such a lovely day and the views were just amazing....
Today I’m back again with another pipe cleaner craft! We had so much fun making these yesterday and came up with some really fun little ideas. I think though that these pipe cleaner snail magnets are my favourite of the day. They’re just so adorable and once you get the hang of them they’re really easy to make too. We have a whole garden full of them on our fridge right now!
How sweet are these little pipe cleaner apple magnets? It took us a couple of tries to perfect them but now weve got them figured and wanted to share them with you all! In fact, we’ve got so good at making them that it only takes us a few minutes on each. My son recently Made some sweet apple and worm cards for his teachers as due to current situation he wont be going back to school this year and he wanted to make extra to gift them too. Such a sweet little idea!
We have a massive collection of pipe cleaners that we have amassed over the last few months. For some reason though we never really use them much so our collection has just been growing and growing. After the millionth time of putting them back in the drawer after the kids have thrown them everywhere I decided it was time we actually made something with them. I actually came up with the idea for these pipecleaner bumble bee magnets whilst my son was sat twisting a brown and a yellow pipecleaner together. It took both him and me a couple of times to get the hang of it but now were bumble bee making pros!
This sweet little fingerprint apple tree craft is the perfect little keepsake. My son is mad about apples, we go through so many you wouldn't believe it. Fortunately though, we're lucky enough to live right next to a little orchard, so when the apples are ripe we're...
I know, a Christmas tree craft in may! What am I thinking?! Let's be honest though this little embellished Christmas tree craft is pretty adorable. I came up with the idea whilst we were making our fingerprint apple trees. I had to get them written down as by December...
I know, I know.. ANOTHER Christmas tree craft in may! Like I have said before though, if I don't get the ideas down whilst there fresh I'll have forgotten them by December! How adorable is this little fingerprint Christmas tree craft though? I came up with the idea...
Cute paper flower crown After my other half finished work the other day we decided to snuggle up and watch a movie with the kids. It was hubby's turn to chose so we ended up watching Moana - it's secretly his favourite kids film! The next day when we sat down to craft...

Bead bunny bag charms. My little boy loves threading toys and activities so today we decided to get out some beads and pipe cleaners as a busy activity. It was Ted's idea that we could make a key ring for mummy's bag and after a bit off messing around we came up with...
Easy paper Halloween witches. Ok Ok, i know.. ANOTHER paper cone craft! But we've just been having so much fun making these. It's awesome just how many designs you can make from them. These little easy paper Halloween witches might just be my favourite so far, they're...
