Wish Upon a Christmas Star

A Little Bit About Me . . .

Hi there! Thank you so much for stopping by my little corner of the interweb. I’m Bridie.

I’ve been crafting since I was toddling around craft shows while my mum sold knitting yarn. She used to buy me a new craft kit to keep me busy. When I grew up I set up my own online craft shop and loved every minute of it. There’s is nothing like the thrill of getting to be one of the first people to see new craft collections. I sold my business to focus on raising my two children.

They’re still young so for now I’m blogging my craft projects and sharing tutorials to inspire you. I love creating handmade cards to show my loved ones how much I care. I scrapbook to preserve precious memories of my kids childhoods. I knit and sew to keep my kids in comfortable, unique clothes they love. I create batch cooked meals to give me more time to craft. And because I’m not currently earning I do all of this on a tiny budget.

I’ll show you all the best ways to craft on a tight budget so you can still create a life you love.
