- 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.

hello crafters. well as you can see my crafting corner is getting a bit cluttered. Im desperately in need of more space. luckily we are having an extension on our house which means i can have my very own craft room (woo hoo). Im very excited about my new room and want to cram it full of fab storage solutions to make everything accessible. Would love to see pics of your craft rooms/spaces & storage solutions for inspiration (& a good nosey at your crafty stash)!
