Viking Arty Party

Posted on 4 August 2016 by Katie Poole • Leave a comment

Crafting is something I love but don’t do nearly enough of – there are just not enough hours in the day to do all the things I enjoy and still get plenty of sleep each night!

DIY Sugar Skulls with Illamasqua and Tatty Devine

There are two things I really love and, if you gave me either as a present, you really couldn’t go wrong: statement jewellery and nail polish.
