I started this blog when I completed my thesis with the hope that I would fill my time with creative projects - I did to some extent my friend and I started a market stall and we had a few commissions - very exciting!
Then I fell pregnant with our first child....I thought fantastic I will be motivated to design and make some lovely practical things for the baby....alas I spent the nine months creating bits and pieces for friends and family who were also pregnant and had very little done by time our little bundle of joy arrived.
No problems I will have hours to be creative - after all how much time can a little one really take up!
Finally when Oliver turned five weeks, we sent out the announcement cards - which I designed and shopped for pre-birth - but it took much longer than I expected to actually put together.
The first six weeks of Oliver's life I tried to do craft things on a daily basis - as I had not quite made the transition of being at home and looking after a little one. Previously being at home meant hours to do creative projects.....over the next few days I will post some of the items I have managed to make - motivated by birthdays and births.
Almost a year to the day since I started the blog - this time I will try to write more frequently...
