My first blog!

Well hello everyone!

I've never blogged before so please bear with me while I get the hang of this!  A little introduction from me would seem a smart way to start out.  Soooooo......

My name is Jackie and I am a 30 year old mum to two boys and step mum to one boy.  My step son Cameron is the eldest at 14yrs old, then I have Dan who is 5yrs and Josh who is 3yrs.  I am married to the lovely Dave and we lived in Leeds in Northern England.

I work full time as a Financial Analyst which obviously takes up a lot of my time, but any spare time I get I love to spend with Dave and the kids.  When the boys are in bed I love crafting and making creations out of recycled materials, felt, buttons, socks, card, pebbles.... well almost anything I can.  It's a relatively new hobby for me, I have never sewed a thing before December 2011, well maybe the odd button on a shirt but that is about it.  But after being involved in a Christmas handmade ornament swap I was well and truly bitten by the crafting bug.  I don't spend a lot of time watching TV and would waste a lot of my time on my laptop doing nothing constructive so this seemed a perfect way to spend my evenings.

I've started this blog to share our crazy busy life with our friends and family and hopefully make new friends along the way.  And to also share the crafty things I make and sell and hopefully inspire other people out there to take up a new and exciting hobby.

Love Jackie
