Teeny tiny projects are the best, they're so cute and are really good for the craft supplies! This cute little book fold box was cased from Pootles, with some changes to the measurements and the design. It fits two mini Green & Blacks chocolates, one in each half of the holder. Using leftover elements of… Continue reading Flutterby Hi
I enjoy making unusual shape boxes - anything that isn't square or rectangular. I also love making big boxes that can house lots of treats and goodies.

Who loves Autumn and the latter part of the year? I know I do. The colours, the cosy nights, the lead up to Christmas. The Gilded Autumn suite is a great hit of everything that's gorgeous about that period. With gorgeous copper ribbon, brushed metallics and leafy patterns, the suite screams Autumn before you even… Continue reading Autumnal Thanks

I have seen plenty of cuboid, cubes, slopey lids, hexagons, octagons etc but very rarely have I seen a cylinder. I like to challenge myself every now and again, so decided it… Continue reading Cylindrical Treat Box

How is already that time of year? Schools are getting ready to break up for the six weeks of summer (for those year groups that have been able to return following Covid-19 closures). For my eldest son, this is his last year in Primary School and he moves onto the scary world that is High… Continue reading After Eight Teacher
