Before we went away we spent some time on Hama Bead Mandalas, as already blogged. But they were just so gorgeous that even though I’ve already blogged them over at BeadMerrily, home of all the Hama Beads you could possibly ever want, I decided to put them here too. It was a lovely few days […]
Crafty Summer – Hama Bead Mandalas.
I’m setting inspirations for the girls this holiday. I think we all need to reactivate our creative sides. Today I made it about mandalas and our long loved midi hama beads. More details, a Pinterest board and ideas tomorrow but it was a huge success.
Like the good old days.
I’d forgotten how much fun it is to just sit and make things with Hama Beads. I think they are still my favourite crafty stuff; I couldn’t bear to not have a shop full of them! I’m clearly in need of a bit of therapy; the breast lump thing has knocked me back badly, even […]
Daffodils in Hama Beads
Oh, I’ve not had the Hama Beads out in such a long time; a bit of therapy was needed tonight though and they just arrived in my hands, as it were. On with the daffodil theme so they will still be here in April (all the garden ones are out now… Sob) and these are […]
Cat Crafts.
If you follow me on Instagram, you may have been forced to endure my humiliating re-entry into Fimo modelling the other week as I attempted to get to grips with making model cats. I can’t believe quite how much ability I have lost in 20 months or so of not picking up any polymer clay. […]
Making Poppies for Remembrance Day & other Autumn crafts.
We dipped into Remembrance Day crafts again today, ready for spending some time on World War work on Thursday and Friday. We’ve covered this a fair bit over the last two years and so it was easy to pick up the threads of previous work, especially as Fran has been doing WW1 recently too. We […]
Autumn in Hama Beads… again :)
I’ve seen this idea pop up on Pinterest a few times and was desperate to have a go and see if it really was as easy as it looks. Seems like a great fun way to use up mixed up Hama Beads. Today we had the beads out to make a whole heap of pictures […]
Crafty stuff that was done Simply ;)
We’ve had a pleasant summer, trying new crafts out, making pretty things and working together on projects, most of which have found their own special post on my brand new website, SimpleCrafts. I’m trying to make a place to put together all the nice things we make and do and showcase them, mostly so we […]
More Sport Hama Bead Designs & Home Ed Life.
So the Olympics are coming and my sporty girls have entered into the spirit it and helped me get some Hama Bead patterns together. They’ve been very creative and we’ve put a free set of ideas (I’ve lost my design disk… again 🙁 ) on BeadMerrily for Hama Bead enthusiasts. There are a few Maddy […]
Stuff we do.
I’ve got a post coming up sometime soon on why it’s been such a very long stream of at home days for so long and what we are doing about it, but while life has been mostly home, we’ve got on and done nice things. It’s been the mostly lovely, healing 4 months forums. We’ve […]
