52 Weeks of Grateful



Hey there people and Happy Saturday to you!! I hope you are having a lovely day, wherever in the world you may be. I have had such a busy and productive week! 

I have added two new items to my Etsy Store. They are such cute little things (I think anyway). Feel free to check out my new bookmarks here and my new bookplates here

I have also spent some time making new babygros, t-shirts and cushion covers and updating the photos for my store. After writing this post I have been really inspired and engrossed in my Etsy store. I think MHI thinks I am MIA! It's brilliant though - I am enjoying it so much.

I also exhausted myself gardening this week. We now have a garden that's not overgrown, is pretty much free of weeds (I will be sharing my weedkiller source very soon - stay tuned!) and is bursting with colourful flowers. It will explode with colour again in the springtime when the daffodils poke their heads out and it will be completely lovely. I really enjoy gardening, but our garden was wild. I don't think anything had been cut for years and years. I am looking forward to pottering in the garden from now on, not almost doing myself an injury with the hard work!


Onto my grateful list for this week - here goes!


77. I am grateful that this little blog continues to grow and grow. I now have 361 GFC Followers which is just awesome. Thanks so much you guys! I have lots of lovely posts lined up for very soon including a before and after of my garden, adventures with making my own laundry powder and my new Shine a Light series. Stay tuned for many more curious goodies!

78. I am grateful that my family are so lovely. Donating plants and pots for the garden, loaning me books on Photoshop. Thanks so much!

79. My creative outlet on Etsy. Honestly, I can't remember a time I was happier. Adding new items, creating and drawing and crafting is so much fun. I am so grateful to be able to do that.


What things are you grateful for at the moment? I'd love to know!!


Have a great day people.


ps. Don't forget to come back on Monday and link up all things inspirational.

I can just hear the joy in your words :) Being creative always makes me happy too :)

I am grateful that my parents will be visiting for a few days and that I'll get to spend time with my extended family this weekend as well!

Sometimes it's hard to remember all the good things in your life when things go bad. Thanks for reminding us to be grateful for what we do have! I find it very empowering to always remember things could be worse. I think your list is amazing! Thanks for sharing. Rebecca @ Soap Deli News Blog
