Welcome to my Blog!!

Hi Everyone!!

My name is Jacqueline I’m 22 years old and currently a stay at home mum in New Zealand. I have two boys, my eldest is Oliver – 3 years, and my baby Cooper – 8 months.

I have always had a huge passion for arts and crafts, this has widely grown since becoming a mum as it has pushed my creativity to limits to come up with different things for my kids. When Ollie was born back in 2016 I started to crochet, something I had always wanted to learn but had no idea where to start. In all honesty I found the idea of trying to learn how daunting and unappealing for years.  I had no idea at this time it would become one of my biggest hobbies and passions. It started as a task to create some warm beanies and booties, over time it turned into so much more and I challenge myself to give everything a go – more than just baby items!

I have always had a love for card making. I spent hours as a child going through my Mums craft supplies and making all sorts of cards, scrapbook pages, mini albums but lost the time for it when I moved out of home and into flatting. 12 months ago I decided to pull it out of the cupboards and well here I am. Over the last 5 years my partner, Toby and I have tackled a variety of household DIYs, up cycling furniture or even building projects from scratch. There is no limit on what we would give a go and we have definitely taken on a few projects in the “too hard” basket. One way or another we suck it up and pull through to finish these projects off. There is no bigger reward like seeing you DIY completed (especially the tricky ones) and being satisfied with how it all turned out.

Please feel free to leave me comments about any crafts you see here on my page, id love to hear from you and any feedback you may have. I hope you enjoy joining me on this crazy journey where I squeeze time in out of my week to have some “mummy time” and tuck into some crafting!!
