Crafter's Apron: from Creations by AR 
I wanted to make a little gift for my Mother in Law as it is her 80th Birthday, now although this is a Birthday gift, it was made using papers from my Christmas background paper pad, I added an extra pocket to the front of the Apron to hold a small post it pad, perfect for her kitchen to write down what she needs or to keep handy by the telephone to joy down a message.

I edged the patterned paper with faux stitching and made a paper frill with an edge punch and added it around the Apron back.

A few pearls and a piece of lace and velvet around the center.

One of the most common queries I get is “what paper or card do you use?” I can totally understand why people ask as it is a minefield out there in the crafting world, know what paper to use for what project you are doing. La Pashe has took all of the guess work out of it for you and brought out a colour coded set of papers and cards so that you never need to worry again Print Perfect

Christmas Presents–Not on the High Street

Well, I pondered and hummed and hawed over what to get for Grandson Jack, for a starter he is a lively 3 year old boy that says he doesn’t need any more toys from Santa this year.

Then I found it, a little online place called Not on the High Street full of goodies that you wont find in your regular high street shops.

Since Jack went on holiday he has been loving planes, paper ones, polystyrene gliders etc but the problem with that is they soon break and the tears start so we wanted something robust that he would get hours of enjoyment from and this gorgeous shop had just the thing.

Great for us too as it folds away into a tidy wooden box which will be easy to store I love this gift.

I just know he will get loads of pleasure from it.

They also have some pretty wicked men's gifts too, so if you are stuck for him indoors or need something totally different get over there and take a peek.
