Hello everyone. I recently bought someone a little gift that came in a flip top style box and thought it would be fun to make my own version. As the box was a gift, I couldn’t disassemble it to find out how to make my own! So I turned to Pinterest and quickly found a […]
Hello everyone. I loved taking part in the February 2020 InspireInk blog hop with this box yesterday… The inspiration for this box with little boxes inside came from my earlier square version… In fact the measurements for the little boxes inside is exactly the same – you can find out more about my earlier version […]
Hello and thanks for visiting. I’m a big fan of Bath & Bodyworks antibac gels but as we don’t have these stores in the UK I have to stock up when I’m in USA or Canada. So I’m delighted to see that in the UK we are getting some nicer antibacterial gels these days to […]

Happy Boxing Day! I hope you all had a lovely Christmas. I still feel full from our Christmas lunch but that’s not going to stop me treating myself with some of the fabulous chocolates I received as delicious gifts. As it’s Boxing Day I’ve escaped to my craft room to create this box, for even […]
