Craft Projects
Revisiting some of the crafty projects and tutorials I’ve posted and thought I would share them all in one place. Would love to hear which one is your favourite, or if you have tried any using my tutorials it would be great to hear from you!
Leave a comment telling me which craft project is your favourite and why, and you could be the lucky winner of one of my handmade ceramic bowls 
Playing with Pebbles
During my trip to the seaside a few weeks ago, I collected a tonne of these flat pebbles from one of the sandy beaches to make something with at home. The varied shades of colour in them were gorgeous, and the more pebbles I collected, the more I couldn’t stop! I initially started by filling my pockets with a few but then had to resort to a big carrier bag. They weighed the car down quite a lot on the way home too!
I had an idea what I wanted to use the pebbles for, but had been looking for a particular type of mirror for a while. Yesterday I came across the perfect mirror (in a sale – bonus!), and spent the evening last night arranging the pebbles like a jig-saw around the edge of the mirror to create a border.
The pebbles were stuck down onto the mirror using a hot glue gun. Doesn’t it look fab!
(and another photo just to show off the beautiful pink hydrangeas in the garden…)
The mirror is going to be hung up in the bathroom.
I used the rest of the pebbles to decorate the borders of some flat clipped photo frames, which will look lovely when I print off the perfect photos to go inside them. I’ll be sending one of the frames down to my friend in Plymouth with a photo of us and 2 other friends from when we were at the seaside, as a thank you for letting us stay. I hope she’ll love it!
