How gorgeous! I think it’s brilliant that you make Christmas presents with wax – you’ll have to post pictures of what you make.
Candles…and lots of them, mostly scented! Winter is the time to be creative indoors…helps to keep one’s sanity intact during the descent into midwinter!

The most precious gift is our time, and a handmade gift, made with love, cannot be bettered. What a beautiful aspect your craft room has – most inspiring!
it’s amazing how much I have accumulated in regard to resources and am busy leaving bags of ‘stuff,’ into the local charity shop! All to be recycled, as I am continually getting more and more from well-wishers. A craft room is a great place for working and creating mess as the door can always be quietly shut!

It’s certainly warm and cozy…thanks! I adore stained glass! I love visiting old churches where some of the best stained glass art can be found…like Notre Dame in Paris…stunning!
