With CraftAlive Brisbane starting next Thursday, final preparations are in full swing! ✂️🎉

After months of asking, Steve is finally putting the finishing touches on a custom furniture piece for my stall. What a fabulous little project to kick off his long service leave! 😂

Can you guess what he’s making? He’s strangely reluctant to paint it Feather Boa pink… I can’t imagine why! 🩷😂

Meanwhile, I’ve finished all three Make & Take options and my display pieces, / I’m now wading through the mountain of editing, instructions, signs and fiddly little last-minute jobs that seem to multiply when I’m not looking.

Only five sleeps to go! Are you joining us? Be sure to pop by my stall to say hello, create a Make & Take, see demonstrations of some fabulous new products, pick up a bargain and enter the prize draw.

I can’t wait to see you there! 💕

🐾 It’s International Dog Day!*🐾

So today I’m handing the page over to the four-legged members of our crafty community. 🐶💕

Delphi would like to know…

Who’s your crafting supervisor?😂

👇 Pop a photo of your dog in the comments and tell us:
🐾 Their name
🐾 Their age
🐾 And their most annoying/helpful crafting habit!

Bonus points if they’ve ever sat on your project, stolen something from the craft room or strategically positioned themselves exactly where you need to stand. 😂

I’ll start with Delphi… She’s 15 and loves to transport the dimensional backing paper all over the house and yard like confetti❤️🐩

💡 TUESDAY TIP — Look for hidden storage space!

During my recent craft room revamp, I had a little problem… lots of punches and not a lot of space to store them. 😂

But I did have a whole heap of vacant real estate on the back of my door!

So, it was off to Kmart for an over-the-door shoe organiser and voilà! My punches are now neatly and discreetly stored, easy to see and easy to grab when I need them.

And I didn't stop there…

I popped another two shoe organisers inside my cupboard doors to store my completed cards. No wasted cupboard space, and my cards are sorted and ready when someone needs one. 🙌

Sometimes the best craft room storage isn't another cupboard or set of drawers — it's finding a clever use for space you already have.

👀 Take a look around your craft room today. Is there a door or cupboard door just waiting to become storage?
