Homemade with Love

On Monday afternoon I stopped in WH Smith for a few minutes and started to brouse through the crafting mags.  I'd actually got this month's 'Molly Makes' in my hand when I noticed a new publication...
Now I'm really strict with myself when it comes to this sort of purchase - difficult choices had to be made because only one mag was going to be allowed through the front door!  I decided to go with the new one and it's great.  The articles and projects are divided into six areas - texture, colour, taste, vintage, fun and up-cycle.  There's some great photography and projects ranging from simple (which suits me) to things that appear pretty advanced.  I was particularly interested in the article about Artists Trading Cards - which prompted a bit more web research and some low-level creativity last night. 
 
I suspect that Mark is going to have a quiet weekend - crafting projects call!!!!

    I could spend a fortune on magazines, so I have to watch what I buy. I haven't heard of this one so I shall look out for it when I go shopping and have a little peep inside. Don't forget to show us what it inspires you to make.

    I shall browse the craft magazines rack later today, it sounds like one worth investing in. I love getting into the crafting mood, must admit I do get a bit obsessed at times - and find myself thinking why make one when I can make six...

    I have to be strict with myself too with magazine buying as they are so expensive nowadays. That one looks as if you will get lots of enjoyment from it:)
