Moo were offering me a substantial discount on my next order so I decided to put in the time and get my logo in the right format for print. This meant ditching the original button I used which was a photo and opting for a vector image instead so that it was scaleable to any […]

I’ve decided that I should get back into using Flickr after helping my friend Pete out with his blog. He was having a few security issues and I suggested we rebuilt his blog from scratch and create a new database and use my favourite theme from Elliot Jay Stocks – namely Starkers. So we spent […]

Here’s an update on how I’m getting on with the learning… Both Dot and I have been too busy to have any more one to one sessions for ages, so I’ve been going it alone for a while. I’ve been doing lots of reading and lots of research and I’ve also been watching loads of […]

I’m busy getting ready for my next craft fair in St Andrews at the weekend and have been making lots of lovely colourful Button Flower Brooches and my studio is getting messy again. I can’t seem to be able to be tidy when I’m working – there are buttons all over the place, along with […]

I’m doing a craft fair in St Andrews next weekend and thought I would put a post up requesting donations in exchange for goods to see if I can entice anyone to give me lots stuff to recycle into lovely notebooks. I’m on the look out for A4 and large format envelopes with interesting patterns […]
