hi i'm Michelle, I am 39 years old. I'm married to matt, with 2 children. William 13 yrs old and Isobel aged 7. I started making cards in 2010 as a way to relax after suffering with postnatal depression. Unfortunately with working life and having our second child, Isobel. who has additional needs, my crafting got pushed to one side. Having recently renovated our new house I've been able to have my own crafty space again. I'm loving unboxing all my old supplies, and buying new of course. Its mainly card making I'm enjoying, but also had a little dabble in crochet and sewing over lockdown. I've decided to keep using my blog as a place to record all my makes, if only for myself. it was a real trip down memory lane when I found this again after 8 years!!! Of course id love to share my makes with others and learn from you all along the way.

temporary craft room!

while we are having our building work done, ive moved my crafty stash upstairs. ive packed most of it away to the safety of the loft, but kept the essentials in our bedroom. So i can continue to craft while i wait for my new craft room to be built. However, my 'essentials' seem to be growing by the day, and its slowly taking over our bedroom, lol.
Thought id share the pic for work desk wedsnesday (never entered it before).

  12. Welcome to WOYWW and hope to see you more in future weeks. I can sympathise about being in a temporary workspace. I went through the same thing a couple of years ago. I am still finding things I lost at that time. Great fun. Have a good week. xx Maggie #9
