Despite my lack of consistent updating, the crafting and making at Self Assembly Required HQ had been […]
Monthly roundup #10
It’s almost Christmaaaaaaas!!! And I’ve been off sick this past week. (This post was supposed to go out on Wednesday but I just couldn’t make it!). I’m kind of on the mend (and kind of can’t afford to take anymore time off work) so I’ll be back to normal come Monday! But whilst everyone is […]

April has come and gone so here’s another monthly round up! In the news… – April has been wedding month for me and I’m not even getting married! I totalled it up at 7 outfits that I made for events throughout the month – all for a variety of different people and events. It’s really […]
