I recently caught up with Vanessa Scott-Hayward, the creator behind SixOSix Designs to find out a little about how she got involved in crafting and to find out her tips and tricks for effectively running a craft business.

Hey strangers, Sorry for the lack of posts of late. I’ve been enjoying life in the real world-doing things, going places, seeing people, eating nice food, eating not-so-nice food, buying things, making myself up, making myself down and just, you know-existing.

How is everybody? I hope you’re all having a nice weekend! We’re having a lovely time. I celebrated my 30th birthday on Friday. My hubs and I ventured out the Wild Atlantic Way, and stayed in the Old Bank Townhouse, in Kinsale. The Old Bank is the partner hotel of the Blue Haven, and features […]

Today was the perfect winter’s day. Frosty blue skies, cold breeze and bare trees all helped that Christmas feeling to softly envelop everything and everyone.
