Rachel here, I promised you something crafty and Christmassy yesterday and here it is… we are going to make a peg fairy. Perfect for hanging on the Christmas tree and guaranteed to be loved by all little girls and if we are all honest, big girls just as much. The great thing about these decorations, […]
Happy 12th December everyone! Eeek, half way there, can you believe it. Today’s blog is a bit of an introduction for tomorrow. My lovely friend Rachel Poole (who I met on the first day at design university) will be sharing some lovely hand made Christmas decorations on the Ellie Kelly blog tomorrow but I […]

Happy 10th of December everyone! I was going to blog about my event on Saturday today but there were so many lovely people there that I want to mention, that I am putting it back to tomorrow so I have a bit more time. So instead today I get to introduce you to Linda from Flutterby Bakehouse. I was entertaining […]
I discovered these in Summer and the kids LOVE them, so I have just purchased some new Christmas designs for my December parties and can’t wait to get glittering! The glitter art is ideal for children who are not keen on face painting or at events when face painting it not appropriate, […]
Happy 8th December! I remember my bed time reading with mum and dad very well and I’m sure it’s one of the reasons I love reading so much as an adult. I am dyslexic, so reading was never one of my strong points at school. I went to a school that specialized in helping dyslexic […]

Today is another blog about something I found at the Country living show in November. I have been meaning to blog about this for ages but I’m so glad I left it until today as I thought of a fab use for it. This is a Doodlemat from Milly Green and I just […]
Happy 5th December everyone! + we have SNOW!!!! I was invited a few weeks ago by the lovely Rosie from LoveLuxe Blog to appear on one of her hangouts. I think my tweet reply was something along the lines of “YES, please I would LOVE to!” I had heard a bit about the […]
As we only tend to do this type of face painting once a year it was time to have a little refresher evening. So myself and Rachel met up yesterday and practiced our most popular Christmas face paint designs. I get ideas and inspiration from the web and face painting books. Just google Christmas face painting […]
Happy 3rd December everyone 🙂 A few years ago I did say that I would never make Christmas cards ever again. Surprise surprise that was the same year I made all my cards (hours and hours of cutting, sticking, gluing and glittering) and in the end decided it wasn’t really worth the effort. Yet here […]
