Every single cell in my body is happy and well, mostly because it’s my one hour at the craft table. Big girl job, kids, too many hobbies. 🧵

I did extensive research and found five very serious reasons to bedazzle single-use plastic. Swipe to read them. Gemstones don't make something used once and binned any less wasteful, so my gems are going on things that last. Tell me what you think of my reasons. #craftersofinstagram #bedazzled #hobby by @caramba.crafts

I’ve been pinning beading ideas for ages and finally ordered the beads. Tell me what has been sitting on your board waiting for you. Who is that girl? It’s me, I’m that girl. 📌

I just completed my first pattern test! 🍂

I made it with vintage cotton I found at the second-hand craft store and bias tape I borrowed from a friend. I got to try this pattern and now I have my go-to autumn vest.

I really loved the process, simple and straightforward. As someone dealing with ADHD since childhood, seeing pattern instructions with tick boxes I can check really makes me feel like I’m making progress, even if I’ve only found the perfect matching thread.

Follow @dist0pya.studi0 and give her pattern a try. I style mine over long sleeve tops for a more put-together look when working from home. by @caramba.crafts

Engineer by trade, chaos by choice. The instructions were right there and I chose to wing it. Which step do you always skip? by @caramba.crafts

My autumn crafting list, written down so I actually stick to it 🍂
First up, my very first pattern test for @dist0pya.studi0 Full review coming soon!
After that it’s stone bead jewellery, a long-overdue journal and more beading (that guacamaya earring has me hooked 🦜)
What’s on your autumn list, crafters? 💛

My first ever pattern test, and I’m savouring every step. I kept spotting tester calls too late, so being picked for this one feels special.

The stash is overflowing and I still want to start the one project that needs everything bought new. Tell me I’m not the only one. by @caramba.crafts

The joy of crafting with second hand materials ❤️ Coventry crafters, if you haven’t been to this scrap store yet, go. Everyone else, tell me about your local one so I can plan a road trip. by @caramba.crafts

Some decisions are easier than others

Gone are the days of printing and taping 90 pages, life is too short. I used @flamingoprints and it’s my new favourite. #sewingpatterns by @caramba.crafts

The needle broke right after, I don’t want to talk about it. #overlocker #rethreadingsucks by @caramba.crafts
