UPDATE: Crafty Magazine is no longer in print.
Happy Monday! Well there is lots for me to be cheery about this week despite the weather – I’m working on my craft room makeover (more on this soon), the bank holiday is one week away and issue 3 of Crafty Magazine is out this Thursday.
I’ve managed to get a sneak peek into the issue to share with you guys. Just look at that cover with the gorgeous paper lanterns!
And I just HAD to share this bike image – those wheel decorations! You can be in with a chance of winning this State Bicycle Co fixie worth £400. Just grab a copy of the mag to find out more.
I totally don’t look that glamourous on my bike. I’m usually windswept and soggy.
These thimbles remind me of my Nan’s collection. Issue 3 lets us have a look inside this vintage collection by Torie Wilkinson.
Is it sad that I want to make this Tepee for my cat?! Crazy cat lady alert.
Helen Woodward shares this crochet camper chair, which makes me want to hook up a chevron pattern for all the chairs.
I’m pretty excited about this issue. I’ve grown a little tired of the repeated format of some craft magazines out there at the moment, so Crafty Magazine will be in my shopping basket this weekend for sure.
You can follow Crafty Magazine on Twitter for more news and read my review of issue 1 here.
Which magazines do you buy? I’d love to hear if you’ve found one I should be reading!
Hi Claire
Totally agree about the tepee my boys (cats) would love it, maybe we could make a smaller version 😉
I totally agree with being a bit fed up with crafting magazines at the moment, I am trying to find a really good papercrafting one thats not all samey and Im having real trouble
I’ve just started getting The Simple Things http://www.thesimplethings.com/ It’s not just crafts, but home, recipes and all sorts about places and people. Really love it and def worth a look
Oh yes, I’ve had The Simple Things before, it’s a really lovely mag.
Great bike – some ideas for you to work on surely? I tend to find tbat all magazines get a bit samey after a while and have to say that I am having a bit of a magazine break at the moment. Xxx
I’m working on a yarn bombed bicycle wheel for Cam Bike Fest actually so I do like to have some inspiration 🙂
Well of course you are, silly me! xx
OMG that teepee is amazing! However, I want to make one for me! Which would then be stolen by the cat…making anything for myself basically means making it for the cat because as soon as it exists she claims it as her own!
Cute! I get lots of help from kitty when crafting 🙂
I’ve never bought this mag, it looks just like Mollie Makes to me and I loathe that magazine!
I prefer it to Mollie Makes as I think I would definitely make more of the projects in Crafty!
So many cute things! I want that teepee for my cat too…..
The teepee looks very cute! My cat probably wouldn’t go in it, but I would! I haven’t read a crafty magazine in ages so I possibly might pick this one up!
Let me know what you think if you do get it!
Ooh, lovely bike, I’m still waiting for mine 🙁 great review Claire and I reckon Tammy would love a tepee. X
Thanks for the mention 🙂 Hope you enjoyed this issue of Crafty, it’s such a lovely magazine. Hx
Loved that chair!
