The first of many!

So this is my first post on my blog! 

I don't really know what I'm doing so bear with me!

I've wanted to write a blog for a while but never really knew what to talk about but I suppose the answer there is anything! 

Let me tell you a bit about myself and why I'm doing this...

I have always considered myself a creative person, a lover of things cute and quirky that you can't always find on the high street! Oh and I love anything little, the smaller and cuter the better really! Everything is just better when it's miniature! 

Like I said I've always considered myself creative but I more or less wing things when it comes to sewing, knitting, sticking and drawing! I have had a lot of books to tell me the techniques of things but I kind of read them and then think oh I can do this (never the most technically perfect of people!) 

There's also the fact that I tend to make things up in my head and then will them to exist! The perfect outfit, card, present, so why not make them myself! 

With the creation of "Pinterest" I was in my element as the world is literally your oyster with people from all over the world putting their ideas down for others to see. So I suppose this is my way of putting my ideas down and hey if someone wants to have a read them, then go for it! 

I have decided to go back to basics and learn the fundamental principals of crafts! Absorb the knowledge my Mum has, that she has learnt through her life. The kind of stuff I want to pass onto my children. 

I had a back to basics knitting lesson with the mum on Sunday and I have to show her how I have progressed tomorrow so I best get Knitting again as I don't have a lot to show so far! I'm sure this will bring a lot of stories to my blog so keep reading!
