I
recently received a nomination for a Liebster award from @itsninasblog via
Twitter which was very exciting indeed. The Liebster awards are to help spread
the word about new blogs with less than 200 followers. I had to answer 11 questions set by Nina and
then I have to make my own nominations and set my own questions for them to
answer.

and crafts featured on the site have been produced by my own kids, so they are
all tried and tested.

I
love Christmas, even more so now that I have children. Last year I hand sewed

was filled with activities for them to do. It included lots of arts and crafts
and things like “Christmas movie night”. “Christmas disco” and lots of festive
baking.

- How do you get inspiration for your blog posts?
My
kids are always coming up with ideas on what they want to make and do so I try
to follow their lead as much as possible.
Trips out are also a great inspiration as well as thinking up
activites to match the time of year e.g.
Easter, Christmas, Mothers Day, Summer holidays etc…
