Last post of 2013 !!

This is it.  The end of 2013 and beginning of a new year which is exciting just because it means I can finally use the tonnes of journals and diaries I has bought over the last couple of months.... so that means I will have about three or four on the go :D haha I can't help it, I love a nice planner/diary/journal just thinking of all the things I can write in it, how organised it will make me ...etc etc yes I am aware this lasts for a few months or weeks until I start missing days or weeks or even months, a bit like my blog posts (sorry), I am not sure if it is my settings (although I have checked this recently) or that no one is visiting my site anymore but I haven't had any feedback or comments for a very long time so I hope to rectify this with new ideas and posts in 2014 so hold on to your hats ;)

Thank you for all the support I have had with followers and likes and comments on instagram which I have loved this year, Happy New Year xxx

A Little look at my Studio

Hey hey, well I am struggling with my usual thousand ideas of stuff to make and do and in the midst of that I have been trying to sort out and decorate my studio.  I have to sort out decorating lots of boxes so that it look less of a mess..I do have a lot of stuff !  I'm working on making another issue of my online magazine 'icraft' with a view to doing it more regularly next year, maybe monthly or every two months hmmm have to think about it.  I am sorting out getting my workshops ready for people to sign up, probably next January now.  It is unbelievable how long th prep for all these projects takes before you can actually get to do something with it.

But for now I am going to post a few studio pics but remember this is not finished... more tidying to do...

One thing I was really pleased with was digging out my bike and F1 illustrations and paintings, some unfinished and getting them up on the wall, inspires me more with my drawing and makes me a little more focused and serious with being an artist :)

How to make your own Bakers Twine

I'm back !

Wow, I can't believe how long it's been since my last post, but I'm back :)

I have been quite busy in general and had a little bout of sickness recently which put me out of action for a little while but here are some pictures of what I have been up to in the last few weeks.

The first ones are of a washi tape banner and then some little cardboard houses that have an inside box to keep trinkets and treasures in ..

 

I also got a bit carried away one day making my own bakers twine because it is quite expensive and I wanted specific colours and colours that were brighter, I will do a quick tutorial on it this week as it is really easy :)

And lastly here are some pictures of decorating a new journal and a piece of fabric with fabulous bright paints in my studio :)  When finished I am going to turn the fabric into cute tote bags.

 

I also bought a fabulous screen printing kit yesterday and I am so excited to use it, I haven't done any printing since college, I am going to make some bags to start with and then t-shirts and posters etc yeay !!
