Crochet Crown

Last week Lara had a Kings and Queen themed mufti day at school. Thinking it would be nice to be different I crocheted Lara a crown. I started off following a pattern to begin with but then winged it and finished it my own way.
I thought she looked awesome!

Personalised Birth Details Print

Today while battling a head cold and watching the three sprogs, I felt an over whelming urge/need to create something that didn't also create mess. After some searching on Pinterest and other  blogs I decided to make some birth detail prints for the children.
Here are todays efforts (excuse the random lines around the edges-I had issues as I turned them into PDFs but then couldn't upload and had to use the snipping tool)

I can't wait to have them hanging on the walls!

String Art

Last year for Christmas I was trying to save money, but also give out more meaning full gifts. So I took the hand made gifts route.
Its hard to buy for my partners family-they have all they need, I didn't really want to go out and spend money on something they aren't going to use, or will just clutter the house. So combining my love of Pinterest I've finally decided to start making some of those things I've pinned.

So this is my take of this pin:

This on pieces of MDF that is A3 size. 

I love them! What do you think?
