A DIY year in review, 2021 wasn't all bad

​Instagram has swapped the trend of sharing your top 9 posts which achieved the most engagement, for something on stories called Instagram Playback. I say, there's still value in choosing YOUR OWN top moments from the previous year.
​Instagram has swapped the trend of sharing your top 9 posts which achieved the most engagement, for something on stories called Instagram Playback. I say, there's still value in choosing YOUR OWN top moments from the previous year, taking a little time to think about what made you contented, joyful, appreciative, or those experiences you've learned from.

2021 has had a fair bit of stress in it, but I've been fortunate in being able to find or create rainbows in those clouds.

These pictures for me represent learning new hands on skills and crafting just because I can, allowing myself to take time off and do the spur of the moment fun thing, learning new skills to try and expand my business, being trusted (and trusting myself) to take on complex or highly personal commissions, embracing what gives me joy and not fearing it being seen as silly,  valuing time with family, spending precious time with my husband, taking risks rather than overcalculating and doing myself down.

(I've previously picked and illustrated my own, personal top 9 have a look at that blog post here)

What would be one of your own top nine moments from 2021?

Oh hello sale!

It's another post-Christmas sale, but aahhh, it's a good time to treat yourself or get ahead on birthday presents shopping before 2022 even starts!

Don't Lose Out: Show your Designing and Making!

Do you show people how you design and make what you design and make?
​
Because if not, you may be loosing out by not helping customers connect with your products!

Buyers Don't Think!

Meet the Maker, and event run by Made in Nottingham, drove home to me how key it is to show and tell about what you design and make.

​As designer makers shared their processes with folks browsing the shop, despite the point of Made in Nottingham being summed up in the shop's name, some shoppers were surprised to find people making things themselves. ​​​

Meet the Maker - Hello Nottingham!

4/10/2016

Seeing something take shape before your very own eyes means that  a piece of art, or sewing, or jewellery has real skills and a very real person behind it. 

So when I was invited to Meet the Maker being run by Made in Nottingham, I was on it like a seagull with a chip!

​Over October 1st seven different designer makers popped in and out of the Made in Nottingham shop, sharing their processes and smiles with the good folks browsing the Broadmarsh shopping centre.

​So how was it?
