On this blog I'll be posting about the plants I'm growing, the food I'm cooking, the crafts I'm making and selling.

I’m a very hands on person, I consider myself extremely crafty. Some of the things are:
- Candles
- Lip balms
- Body scrubs
- Soap (only have tried with melt and put bases so far but will try with lye soon)
- Crochet items (of any kind really)
- Cards
- Basic sewing (Ive made a few make up bags and sleep eye masks)

These are two koalas I just finished crocheting last week. A client from work asked me to make them for her to give as a gift. |
With this blog I am hoping to post at least once a week to start off, hopefully more often in the future.
