About Me

I live in Canberra, Australia, and I love to make things. My favourite crafts are papercutting; screenprinting; painting with acrylic; and decorating cakes and cookies/biscuits. I also dabble in jewellery making and knitting.

I have two young sons (aged 3 and 5) and I envy people who have young children and beautifully decorated houses ; )

Christmas is my favourite time of the year. I trim my tree with handmade ornaments (from swaps) at the top (out of reach of inquisitive hands); and the kids' craft ornaments at the bottom. My ornaments are a huge mix of colours and styles, although one day I hope to have a separate tree for just my red, silver and white ornaments (many of which have a heart theme).

I love heart shapes and red decorations - so it seemed natural to create and participate in a handmade heart themed ornament swap. I look forward to seeing what everyone makes - please remember to post pictures on the flickr page!

Comment: Lovely ornament. Can't wait to display it on the tree. This ornament is extra dear to me because this November my beloved parrot passed away from cancer, so I will hang this ornament in loving memory of my bird-Diego.

Tamara~~~I'd be happy to make more for the Valentine swap if you need to divide it up differently or we don't have all that many more signed up.

Thanks again for organizing it~~~Holly
