Christmas Tree Advent Calendar

I may have mentioned elsewhere that I love to craft. I used to try selling my crafts on Etsy, but because I love to do so many things I really didn’t have the focus I needed for my shop.

Crafty Season Has Begun!

And so, it begins. It is November after all. Christmas is next month! Here's a pretty simple craft I am sharing from my YouTube Channel, Tumble Creek Christmas.

Well, here's a post about our day yesterday,Continue reading "Les Mis-adventures!"

Sharing a little inspiration

Here's an inspirational quote I thought I'd share for all you writers out there! it's like a gentle kick in the butt. 🙂 It's worth any writer's while to get a draft onto the page, because truly, editing in your mind isn't quite the same in terms of progress. And if you're like me, youContinue reading "Sharing a little inspiration"
