Indian Summer Part 2
Indian Summer Part 2 Having arrived safely in Dehli I experienced my first insight into India. The first thing I noticed was how hot it is, Obviously I hear you say, and I agree except it was half 11 PM and 37 degrees C. All the colours and spices you can imagine were on sale in the duty free but what got me most was the Dehli Daredevils sports bar in the terminal, sadly we were too tired to partake and went to have a nap waiting for ...

Foreword
What follows in this book are really just the thoughts and feelings of myself and how I interpreted my time in India.

I had an amazing yet daunting time in India and I feel my blog describes as much, others will have a very different time from me ...

My first year as a crafter

I am originally from Norway and have always been very active with sowing, knitting and flower arranging. I have recently started using mixed media and have found that I love working with scrap wood, cut out pieces to then embellish with other medias such as napkins, IOD transfers, printed fabric and such. I try to make every piece unique so therefore very unique pieces which is what I love to have myself. If you want to have a look ...
Newbe
After nursing for over 30 year’s retirement was always going to be a challenge, got the dogs I always said I wanted! Now what? Dogs are great but their conversation is a bit limited and there’s only so many walks you can do in a day. I bought some cheap pastels from a well known super store, pastels are pastels , right! I didn’t know what I didn’t know, still managed a half decent beach scene and that was it, hooked. It was only ...
Why craft fairs?
The UK is without doubt one of the most creative and diverse places on Earth.
The talent of makers and artists needs a release, a channel that allows both new and experienced people the chance to market and sell their work. They also need to network with their peers to exchange ideas and experiences. The craft fair can be that channel. It challenges people, it inspires and motivates people to do better and more.
Supporting your local craft fairs as a visitor and purchaser, helps to grow the community and encourage further creative, social and community wealth.
