I have recently celebrated a birthday with a 0 in it, so am feeling simultaneously young and old. That means lots of nights out, followed by days in on the couch. And when I am on the couch, I am rarely without needles in my hands. I have started knitting again – and am slowly working up to bigger and better things. Then I am going to start sewing. And maybe mosaicing. And possibly decoupage. No NEVER decoupage. I have to draw a line somewhere, and it is just above decoupage.
A note about the Links: The links are just websites that I read most days, or find useful, or think are pretty. You might like to look at them, to give you an insight into what I waste my time on. Or, you could not, safe in the knowledge that I just like to have one point to click from.
I should also point out that any views that you find here, are my own, and not those of my employer. You should have guessed that by the fact that everything you find here is utterly inane.

But what is decoupage anyway?

Deborah – it’s cutting pictures out of magazines, gluing them to something, and then covering the whole thing in layers and layers of varnish.

And it’s the epitome of naff.
I’ll probably change my mind about that soon though.
