Hello. My name is Lindsey and I love to craft! My main passions are Junk Journalling, Slow Stitching, and thrifting. I like to save things from being thrown away by making something beautiful. My makes are far from perfect but I think they are lovely and I want to encourage and inspire others to create too. I have a colourful vintage style and love to play with old and new ideas as I craft.
This year I want to connect with other crafters and get out of my comfort zone so, I started my little corner of the UA-cams!
So, if you like sustainable craft and beautiful imperfect crafting join me as create in my little craft room.

Very Easy/beginner slow stitch dress makers pin cushion.
Inspired by a dress makers pincushion found in a vintage sewing cabinet this little cushion is easy to create. If you can sew on a button on a shirt you can make this pincushion! It's a simple way to add to your slow stitch sewing kit.

Join me as I create my junk journal for #junkjournaljanuary from a paper sweet tub and various vintage book pages. I explain how I'm going to navigate the challenge gently during this cold and dark month. I'm trying to be gentle on myself and enjoy "wintering" instead of wishing time away until spring! In this video I work on the first 3 prompts, Cover, Envelope and Tickets by creating the jour...

Awesome love it😊❤
Happy New Year 🎊🎊🎊🎊🎊
Who would not like the things you make i believe that people would go crazy to receive your handmade items then something store bought so don't think that your handmade items are not welcomed 😊❤
I am seriously inspired by you to make the junk journal january with magazine pages newspaper and cereal box by seeing all this what you are doing 😊❤
What a cute idea! I never thought about putting one together like a journal!
Lovely project 😊
Thank you! 😊. I do enjoy making these.
Happy New Year 🎊🎊🎊 Beautiful journal😊❤
Happy new year!! thank you 😊
Happy New Year! You found some nice things, I love the antique cards and photo. All the best for 2025. Sally.
Happy new year! They are lovely things from a happy time with friends. Looking forward to crafting with them.
Some lovely finds there Lindsey, I thought the prices were reasonable. I especially love the linens. Locally our charity shops no longer seem to have much in the way of vintage items and all our antique centres have closed 😢 Happy New Year to you & good luck with the channel in 2025 😊
My idea of heaven! Look forward to seeing your goodies 😊
I got some lovely things 😄
Best of Luck in your seach for materials
Thanks you 😊 I have yet to approach the interior stores but I have a lovely antique haul and a look around the most beautiful antique barn I've ever seen coming up 😊
Thanks for taking timeout at this busy time of year to film. Wishing you & yours a wonderful Xmas and a very healthy 2025 😊
Thanks Julie 🙂 we've had a lovely Christmas and heading back down South this morning calling at a massive antiques warehouse on the way 😉. Hope you had a lovely Christmas.
Your tree is beautiful! I'm a magpie too. I collect cats. Thank you for sharing! Hugs ❤
Thank you! 😊, the cat in your profile looks like my cat Dodger. He's a rescue we have had for 3 years now.
Your tree is beautiful 😍 Lindsey, thank you for sharing. Your husband is very talented. I too am a collector of crockery but I've cut my collection back in recent years. Not enough space and too much dusting! 🤣
I hate dusting too 🤣
Your little robin looks quite at home, thank you again 😊
Thank you for sharing your "Robin" tree, and beautiful display of dishes. I also collect old dishes. I hope you have a safe journey. Sally.
Thank you, we did and all is becoming well. ☺️
Your stocking is gorgeous! I'll be praying for you. Hugs ❤
Thank you 😊
I'm sure your colleague will appreciate her secret santa, the stocking is a gift in its self 😊 I read just before turning out the light in an attempt to turn my brain off from real life problems but I'm also a crime lover (nothing too gritty though!) so can't recommend anything wholesome I'm afraid 😂
I enjoyed putting it together 😊. I like to listen to true crime podcasts but don't enjoy reading true crime, bit weird of me 🤣
Love your Christmas paper stocking 😊❤
Thank you! 😊
I'm glad to see you, your stocking is lovely. Take care, and I hope your situation is resolved soon. I would like to be able to recommend some books for you, however I read mainly crime fiction , so it may not be the light reading you're looking for. Sally.
Thank you 😊. I just said to Julie it's funny I like to listen to true crime podcasts but not that into reading about it, think it's because I imagine it more if I read about it.
Great tutorial, new to your channel will definitely be popping in again thanks xx
Yay! Thank you! Welcome, I'll be making pincushions in the New Year and perhaps a leather thimble.
Love your needle books and the antique book give away !! Thank you❤
Thank you for watching ☺️ this giveaway has ended but there's more to come in the new year.
Beautiful 😊❤
Thank you! 😊
Enjoyed listening to your waffle on slow stitch Sunday on a Monday whilst wrangling with my Xmas tree lights on a Wednesday! It made the yearly task more enjoyable. Thanks 😊
This fairy is magical, she looks as if she's about to land on the holly. I enjoyed watching you create this page. Thank you for sharing. Sally.
Thank you so much! that's what I wanted her to look like she was doing. I'm so glad you liked it. 😊
This stocking is a great idea. I love Terry's chocolate oranges, Santa brings me one every Christmas. Sally.
Me too!! It's not Christmas without a Chocolate orange and a selection box. ☺️
Lovely😊❤
Thanks 🤗
Beautiful page, love your fairy.❤️
Thank you, I'm glad you like it ☺️
Lovely 😊❤
Thank you! Cheers!
So nice of you to welcome us in❤.
So nice of you to drop by 😊
Really nice

Beautiful..love the colors🩷
Thank you! 😊 They are hopefully will be to my teen's taste 😉
Love the name of your page also🩷
Thank you! It's been rolling around my brain for well over a decade.
Thank you. Now I know what to do with all my loose needles. Thank you for the chance for the giveaway🩷🩷🩷🩷
I'm so glad you've been inspired to make it. This giveaway has come to an end and hopefully the winner is enjoying it as advent progresses. We will be having a giveaway soon so watch this space!
Thank you for this great tip. I like watching fussy cutting, I find it relaxing. Sally.
You are so welcome! I'll remember that when I have do some more.☺️
Lovely 😊❤
Thanks 🤗
You’re not the only one. I too have trouble with winter. It’s not the cold or snow , it’s the dreariness that pushes me back under the covers. The poem was nice but the picture spoke to me. Thank you for sharing
Love that! Hope you're wintering brings rest and all the energy you need for the spring 🌱
Great transformation, I look forward to seeing the final result 😊
Thank you! 😊 It's coming soon!
Love the Chrissy flower fairy❤
Thank you! 😊
Love your work! How do u make the little birds and butterflys?
Thank you! They are stamps. Simply made using stamps from my craft stash and archival ink. You can heat seal then with an iron. I then tend to whip stitch the stamped image onto felt. I'll add a process video to my list.
How lucky to win❤
I hope she enjoys it 😄. We will have more give aways soon.
Did you go through what was in the advent calendar❤
I put things we have made in past videos and bits from my stash. There are slow stitch things such as a needle book, strawberry pincushion, a slow stitched scroll kit. There are junk journalling elements such as tags etc and things from my stash, I also added a mini journal.
@ how wonderful. Do you have a photo of your strawberry pin cushion on your instagram?
Will you have any adventure calendars in your Etsy. I couldn’t find the link❤
@@magnoliabird I have them made up but unfortunately I became ill with COVID in October and it's me a long time to recover and I have had to let go of setting up the Etsy shop for the time being. Sorry about that 😔. They won't go off though so, will be ready for next year!
Sad I just found you. I would have loved to enter❤
@@magnoliabird there will be other giveaways soon 😊
Love everything about this video and the giveaway! ❤🥰😍🥰❤️🎄❤️🥰😍🥰❤️
Thank you, this giveaway has ended and the lucky winner has the calendar with her. I will be posting another one soon so watch this space! 😊
Brought back memories of reading The Gingerbread Man Ladybird book to my kids. Love the illustrations in those books 😊
I know they are special, my favourite one was the Cinderella book. ☺️
Some interesting musings on life Lindsey. Lots to think about, thanks for sharing 😊 I think money spent on your health is definitely money well spent. As for storage you can never have too many cupboards. Bung everything inside a cupboard and your home looks tidy. Nobody can see the untidy piles of stuff behind the doors 😉
Ta, health is priceless really. I love a good cupboard!
So glad I found this video and you! I am just learning to sew and adore the cute little needle books! Can't wait to go watch more of your videos :)
You are so welcome! 🤗 I keep it simple, three basic stitches and lots of recycling!
Thanks for sharing 😊❤
Thanks for watching ☺️
Lindsay, thanks for talking about wellness. We are close to the same age and my b-day is in a couple of weeks. At this point in my life, I've realized how important it is for me to have inner peace, so I prioritize balance and harmony in my life more than I have ever before. Growing, healing and evolving- living a conscious life is more important to me than trying to be "perfect" by any standard. Most of what has helped me is being super mindful of the people I spend my time with, enjoying time spent by myself and doing things that bring me joy. Much love and appreciation for you in creating the channel and opening these doors.
I'm aiming for peace and contentment 😊 this winter. I was concerned about sharing my musings but I want the channel to be more than sticking paper into pretty patterns so thank you for your thoughts! ☺️ Yay for growing community!
