(If you downloaded the original file, please read the edit at the bottom of the page!) Last night I made up some cute prints to put up in Hercules’ corner of our room, I had originally planned on doing just one, but whilst I was picking up some undies for the kids yesterday afternoon The Temptations came on the shopping centre music, and I had a flash of inspiration that I couldn’t let go of! So now we have two [...]

When I was in the first year of school I remember making a Christmas card for my Mum, a big green hand print covered in sequins and glitter glue, I loved that card and was so proud when she displayed it all year around despite it being Christmas themed.

Stephanie Lynn from Under The Table And Dreaming has a guest post on Brown Paper Packages detailing how to make VERY cute bowls from crocheted doilys, I’ve seen these done with starch before, but never with white glue (PVA/school glue) and I think they look awesome, a really cute way to store those little bits and pieces that you need on your desk.

Look what I finished up last night! The quilt top that is, not the baby – he/she still has a couple of months to go, which is a good thing, because I am so unprepared for baby day and Christmas falling on the same month, not helped of course by having a six week window in which Hercules could arrive.

Hi, I'm FernHi, I'm Fern and CraftBlog is my online home. I live in NSW with my husband and three sons, and spend every moment of my free time with my head buried in some form of creativity. In fact, I've never met a craft I didn't like, although I think I've tried a fair few that probably weren't too keen on me. Want to know more?
