At the moment I don't have any spare time to make things, but before Felix arrived I bought two craft books, which I can't stop looking at.  The first is called Surrur by Marimekko.  I have an obsession with Marimekko, so when they made a craft book, I was in heaven.  This book is amazing.  There are so many things in it I would love to make and just looking at all the colour and fabrics inspires me.
The other book that I love is by Minieco and it's called Eco-friendly Crafting with Kids.  It's so colourful and full of fun easy crafts.  Piper loves to sit with me while I feed Felix and choose which project we are going to do.  Our favourites so far are the Kaleidoscope and the Catapult Plane.  We are currently gathering all of the bits and pieces that we need, so I will post some photos when we make them.

I am also trying to make sure that I do at least one fun thing for my self each day.  Today's task was to do a blog post.  It has actually taken me three days to finish it, but I've enjoyed posting it and hopefully I will get better at finding some time for myself.  I hope you have an amazing Saturday and spend it doing something you love.  xx
