Crafting the weekend away

First up (well they were kind of first and last and in between since I made them over the whole weekend) are these little dreamcatchers. I kind of got carried away a little and ended up making six even though I didn't even need one. But I had all the stuff lying around and felt …

Crochet coil baskets

I made these little baskets a while ago, well actually one was made in October and the other one in January but so far I hadn't gotten around to taking photos of them. Like with most other craft projects in my life at the moment I got the idea from a blog. In this case …

Putting some creativity into snailmail

London – part two

On to Day Nr.2 in London. This day included quite a lot of Magic as well but it was not as Harry Potter focused as Day Nr.1. This day we started by taking the Underground to Leicester Square and then walked to Covent Garden. Covent Garden is such a nice area and it was fun …
