My First Post

Welcome to my first ever blog post!  

I'm Diana, and am mother to two gorgeous children, living with my long suffering, and very lovely husband. We split our time between London and the Cotswolds.

In 2003, I saw the light, and quit the crazy, miserable hours of corporate life to concentrate more time on being a mother, and not sitting at at a desk all day (spending 12 hours on pinterest apparently doesn’t count).  

I now do as little work as I can possibly get away with.  A lot of my time is taking with general mum things, and organising our busy family. In my spare time, I will be found knee deep in some form of making frenzy.  (Usually taking over the whole house).

I took an art class for a few years at a local art college, and realised sadly, that I am not very good at painting or drawing (despite what my wonderful supportive children will tell me).  

Never one to let talent get in the way of enthusiasm,  I have turned my attention towards all sorts of making and crafting.

   

Why am I blogging ?

I have been "making stuff" for 10 years.  During this time I've made a LOT of STUFF…I mean a LOT.  I wanted a record for myself of all the things I make, admire or covet. 

I also love reading other blogs for inspiration.  The projects I make are really easy.  If I can do them anyone can.  

Hopefully some of my posts will inspire someone else.
