Planet Kid Craft Welcomes Careful Drivers

I've spent most of my adult life not quite doing what I want to do; working an office job instead of crafting up a storm. Now, approaching my 35th birthday, and with two busy boys to look after I've decided to try ever so hard to express the creativity that nags me on a daily basis. It won't be easy! The boys are still very little (J is 3 years old, O is 8 months) and looking after them is a full time job. I expect my first attempts may be posted unfinished but I won't let that stop me. If I can begin a project or even just blog my ideas then it will be a step in the right direction.

And now, to celebrate the commencement of this new blog and new resolution, here is my tea box marble run, work in progress, and a green & gold egg cosy bunny made out of felt.



The bunnies: Here you see the first attempt (too small for the egg) and the final cosy. Result = total egg consumption. This project was completed while O slept in his wrap. 

The marble run made from a Tick Tock Redbush tea box is for my elder son.  There's a fair bit of careful cutting and gluing involved so I'm not sure when it will get finished. Maybe when the kids both go to University...

Baby wakes, so that's all for now.
