The End of Self-Hosted
The End of Self-Hosted
The End of Self-Hosted
Having my own domain name, and having a self-hosted blog, were important goals to me a year or so ago. Times change though. Now I feel I’ve achieved that goal and I should look at my priorities again.
I wanted to be self-hosted because I wanted the bells and whistles. Lately though I’ve realised that I’m not making the most of the extra plugins. Having thrown…

Journal Cover
I didn’t get chance to blog yesterday. I hope everyone had a good weekend.
I have six or seven journals in the making, all at different stages. I got some ‘greyboard’ for making covers but I don’t like it much as I can’t get a clean fold. I prefer the mountboard, or recycling cardboard boxes.
This cover was made with black mountboard. The flower image was stamped onto paper from the…

How to make a non-surgical face mask
How to make a non-surgical face mask
I’ve created these instructions so you can easily make non-surgical face masks to wear when you go out-out.
Here in the UK, they have decided we should cover our faces in crowded places (that could be the start of a poem). This won’t necessarily stop us catching the virus but it may prevent us spreading it to other people.
My logic is telling me that surely if we ALL wear masks then…

Making Masks
Just popping along to say that I’m sorting out a mask template for tomorrow hopefully!
I’ll also be trying to look less criminal 😂

A Frosty Start
Good morning. We have a frosty start here today. Brrrr! I don’t think we will be having the balcony door open today.
Photo Memories
Did someone say balcony?
2017
The view from the balcony. At this stage we had the keys to our new home but we hadn’t actually moved in. It was a sunny weekend three years ago and we had gone to our new place with a few odds and ends prior to the move.

Mini pockets for my journal, made with coffee stained papers
I’ve made a decision, well, two decisions actually. The first is that I’m dropping numbering the days now. I will continue to post daily as and when I can though. The second decision is that I’m creating a new Facebook group for people who like to craft and/or blog. I had a group before that I archived because I wasn’t in a good…

Day 50: 3-2-1
I’m feeling fragile this morning. Another not so good sleep and worrying times regarding my son. He’s have a PICC line inserted into a vein in his arm today so that he can restart IV chemo. This is because the low dose chemo he was having wasn’t strong enough, and the leukaemia cells have been increasing. He’s needed lots of blood transfusions because the leukaemia messes up his blood counts.…

Day 49: Blankets, Blossom and Boris
Day 49: Blankets, Blossom and Boris
Photo memories today are from last year and five years ago.
Blankets
I purchased some yarn in a colour scheme I found on Pinterest. My aim was to make my blankets more coordinated. It worked to a point, but I wasn’t using a pattern and my blanket went a bit wonky.
I tried a different method of joining the squares and I do like the effect, even if it was a bit fiddly.
I called…

If you would like to watch my birthday vlog, the link is below.
There are always things I feel I can improve on, but overall I’m pleased with how it turned out. It took a long time to put it all together, and I am learning all the time.
Today I need to make time for craft though, so that I can show you my journals…

Day 47: Vlogging
Tasks for today
My tasks for today include setting up a “studio” so I can finish my birthday vlog. This means I need to tidy up whatever is in the background, make sure I have good lighting, eliminate as much outside noise as I can and make sure I have my props ready and I know what I’m going to say.

Day 46: VE Day (75th Anniversary)
Day 46: VE Day (75th Anniversary)
Did anyone notice I had made a small error numbering the days? No? Good, then I got away with it, phew! … It was just the *brilliant mathematician* in the house that worked it out! *not me
I found it easy to go back and amend the titles using the quick edit function on WordPress. So my error actually directed me to learning something new.
Yesterday I made the bunting, as I said I…

Day 44: Bunting
Today I am making bunting to hang from the balcony for VE Day tomorrow. I have some material scraps I’m going to cut into triangles and roughly stitch to some ribbon.
You don’t have to use material, you could make paper bunting if it’s for indoors.
Here’s some I made earlier
Or you can use old plastic bags which has the added advantage of being waterproof.
Today is Thursday so…

Day 43: Bread, Balloons and Cake
I don’t have many words to say today as it is getting late. I didn’t feel well this morning but I managed to make some bread.
My husband surprised me with a cream tea delivered to our door this afternoon. The sun was shining and it was warm enough to open the balcony door, so we enjoyed a couple of hours fresh air while eating our lovely treat.
I have started making my birthday vlog…

Day 42: 50 years!
Today was my 50th birthday, and I didn’t know what to expect with the world being what it is at the moment.
You’ll be pleased to know that it was a good day … A very good day …
The blog post I had previously prepared for this momentous day got binned, as it wouldn’t have made sense at all during these times of Coronavirus.
Anyway, here I am ad-libbing instead, and by the way, I’m still…

Day 41: From The Archives
Most days I get a notification from my photo storage reminding me what I was doing "On This Day" whenever. Today was no exception, and it threw up quite an interesting mix.
Most days I get a notification from my photo storage reminding me what I was doing “On This Day” whenever. Today was no exception, and it threw up quite an interesting mix.
First of all it reminded me of my ’50 blankets before 50′ challenge I had set myself (inspired no doubt by Polly’s Kettle List).
Well folks, I’m 50 tomorrow and I am not anywhere near my target.
However, trying…

Day 40: Running Late
Day 40: Running Late | I'm a bit later posting today as I have been carrying on with my paper craft. Please also admire my bread and my pink hair!
I was going to call this post ‘The Late Late Show’ but I changed my mind thinking it could land me in trouble!!! It’s a shame, because it’s a great title, but I suppose I had better leave it to James Corden.
I’m a bit later posting today as I have been carrying on with my paper craft. There’s been further sorting of each packet of pages and embellishments. I have also put aside some…
