Whimsy Love

I have been following this super woman for a long while now and not only is her blog heartwarming and inspiring, but her etsy shop is full of cutesy little peices that you just want to own!





How cute! Perfect presents at this time of year too :) And with snow days and school holidays coming up you'll be after some ideas to occupy the kids (big and small) so definitely check out her blog!

Enjoy <3

Kick-Ass Peanut

Back for another installment and this time it's plushies!

Everyone like plushies, whether they'll admit it or not, and naturally you want your cuddly to be super cute!!

This lovely lady makes some of themost adorable plushies I have ever come across. I have also had the pleasure of seeing them in person and they're wonderful. Once you've cuddled one you don't want to let go!




These would make amazing gifts for people who are into anime and Japanese culture. Plus, the larger plushies are big enough to be cushions!

You can find Kick-ass peanut at her website, Facebook, deviantART and at Zapi Comix in Carmarthen!

Monster Kookies


As a polymer clay artist myself I can truly appreciate just how much time and effort goes into the creations of the one and only Monster Kookies. Best known for her industrial heart collection, Kookie truly is the mad scientist of polymer clay!

I commissioned one of these amazing industrial hearts myself and this is what was created for me:




As a Monster Kookie customer I can also say that her service is wonderful, personal and her items are shipped very safely with your peice arriving snugly in a little box :) It's very exciting!

As stunning as these steampunky hearts are, that isn't all that Kookie makes! That' right, she has time for other things too (although how I have no idea). Here's some of my personal favourites from her gallery.




Make sure to visit Moster Kookies at her website, or deviantART!

Let me lay out my plan!

...my evil plan *insert stupidly evil laugh here*

No, it's not evil, it's just brilliant.

My name is Helen and I am a craft addict. This addiction is something that I am trying to bring to other people and I know jut how difficult that is. I aslo know that there are hundreds upon hundreds of other crafty folk trying to spread the word about their passion.

My plan is to help people to spread the word! I hope to do this by writing reviews and featuring as many people as possible, because I'd like to make a difference.

I'll be posting here at least once a week if things work out.
