While the world has gone to hell in a handbasket, life keeps going on without pause. I’ve seen a lot of comments saying who cares about the invasion of Ukraine as it has nothing to do with us, which makes me so damn sad.

All the stars from the night sky…
Ok I have a thing for stars and lights. And star lights. So for the last few days I’ve been working on these mini stars that cover small fairy lights.

Suddenly November!
This year is flying by way to fast, it feels like it only just started but now is almost over. Still I am a head on this years Goodreads, reading challenge with 325 of 365 books. I am keen to hit 365 and will be super happy if I knock off a couple more. I’veContinue reading “Suddenly November!”

Moving Foward
Hey guys here is one of four custom star’s I’ve designed for a custom order. It was a bit hard to get the balance right as one name was longer than the others and I didn’t want to make the stars too big given the price I quoted. This was the largest one and whileContinue reading “Moving Foward”
