My Handmade Year 2012

This year has surpassed my expectations in so many ways. This blog has done better than I ever hoped.  I joined Instagram, I opened a Facebook page (didn't see that one coming!) and I made my home prettier and crafty than ever before.

It's been a great year in fact, and here's a round up of my twelve crafty months.

(Oh, and if you see something you like and want to see more, click on the picture and you'll jump to that month's posts.  You'll be able to track down your favourites in a jiffy!)

I hope you enjoyed taking a look through the year with me and the very last thing to do is to thank all of you for your kind comments and fabulous support over the past year.

Thank you all!

  7. Sandra, I'm blown away! You've created such beautiful things this year and should feel so incredibly proud of yourself. Your makes and blog are a total joy and I'm tickled pink to consider you an IG friend now. You remain one of my biggest inspirations. Here's to a happy, wonderful and equally as creative 2013.

    Have a great 2013, and keep inspiring us!

  40. The monthly collages are lovely. When they are set out like that you can see what a lot of things you have made during the year. Which package did you use to make them? Fireworks? I loved your hand made home idea. I am definately going to give that a go for this year as well as trying to refresh my tired old blog.
