I recently did a craft fair at Ardross Farm – Summer in the Loft – and thought I’d post up some piccies of my stall and the event. It was the first craft fair I’d done in a long while, so I was a bit nervous and not sure what to expect, but it turned […]

Recently I blogged about making Jam for my friend Matt, for him to sell and raise money for a film he’s making. We’ve named it Dummy Jam as it takes after the man who inspired it – a deaf Scotsman name James Duthie, fondly known as Dummy Jim, who cycled to the Arctic Circle in […]
I spent some time last week adding a new shop to this website. I tried out lots of WordPress e-commerce plugins and most of them were terrible, lacking severely in documentation and support and so impossible to implement. I then stumbled upon Ecwid and manage to set it up and style it in less that […]
Just found this really lovely illustration/print by Allan Peters on the Grain Edit website and I love it. It’s so cute. I gues I’m a bit partial to bicycles at the moment as the Tour de France is on every day and so I’ve got bicycles on the brain.

You may have noticed a severe lack of blogging lately. Well, I’ve been busy – very busy – not only with my recent craft fair at Ardross Farm, but also with website updates. Since I started working with precious and non precious metals and creating more ‘expensive’ pieces of jewellery, I’ve found it quite difficult […]

There’s a £200 cash prize and Rachelle Strauss from www.myzerowaste.com has agreed to do the judging! So get your thinking caps on and get creative with your waste and come up with something amazing and enter the […]
I’ve just entered the Milomade Blog into the Little Blog Awards over at Dorset Cereals – if you’ve never tried Dorset Cereals, you should – very very Yummy – although a little bit pricey, but worth the pennies! I normally buy them occasionally as an indulgent treat. Anyway…
