Toilet roll craft pinatas

Who knew loo rolls could be so cute!  I made this tutorial for Craft Candy who are celebrating their birthday this month.    Instead of being filled with sweets, these pinatas are filled with crafty treated instead.

Big Props

After spending a lot of time collecting items to use to decorate our wedding venue in July, I decided to put them to good use after the wedding by hiring them out.  I had collected about 100 jam jars, 8 belljars, vintage typewriters, birdcage, bunting, easel, vintage china etc etc.  

I have added a page called Props to my website, which you can see here enabling other people to hire out my decorations instead of having to spend ages trawling charity shops or online looking for items to decorate their wedding/party/photoshoot.  

There are lots more items to be added over the coming week or so.

Have your cake and eat it!

My mother in law surprised me and made my day today by making this amazing cake for my birthday - she not only made the lovely cake but all the decorations she handmade on top of it too!  Its a basket of crafty things as she knows I love that sort of thing.  The bear on the cake is even a  decoration based on a real bear tape measure I own too.   Its so lovely i don't want to eat it!
