Great Minds Think Alike...

I have been busy this week pottering on with my new crafty cupboard.  It's almost there, decorated and full of shelves and stuff.  I have crammed the tiny space with my crafty bits and pretties.

You wouldn't  believe it but I have spent hours and hours this week just making this little UJ heart. The lovely frame was a birthday gift last year from a lovely friend and I have only just got round to making something to fit in the heart space.

 In a funny coincidence another friend hundreds of miles away was busy making me a gift for my crafty space on a very similar theme.  I just love this Jan Constantine inspired lavender heart.

I have found the perfect table to fit in my crafty space, I was on the lookout for a junk table to fix up but came across this one, all done in a local junk shop and it was just what I needed.  This little table determines the rest of the layout of my tiny space.  I will show all very soon.

 On a totally unrelated note have you seen the new magnetic effect Nails Inc. Polish. It's fab, you paint it on and quickly hold the magnetic lid over the top and the metal particles rise to the top in patterns determined by the magnet in the lid.
 It looks like some effort went into it when infact it didn't and I like that!

No affiliation at all just wanted to share :0)

Back Soon.

Have got the polish, it is really nice. Love how simple it is to look like you have spent ages on your nails. Can't wait to see craft area all completed. I need to try and find somewhere in my house for all my things. Somewhere girly, no boys allowed! xx

Am so looking forward to seeing your crafty area (but am bracing myself for the tidal wave of envy which I know will hit me). Not an attractive quality! Do let us see soon. XX

I love your nails! A friend sent me the new Barry M version and I had no idea what the end result would look like, dying to try it out now. x
