Happy 💕 everyone!

This week I’ve made a start on this book ‘The Compassionate Mind’ by Paul Gilbert. It’s a big book but I love learning about and improving myself through reading and this book was recommended to me last year to help with creating a more compassionate self narrative.

I’d love to hear what you’re reading right now? Are you a fiction or non fiction person?

☀️ 🍓 Ok whilst I might be possibly starting to secretly put Christmas stuff back up in the Etsy shop (don’t shout at me) I promise I am absolutely still embracing summer over here!

I have loved these fruity vibes over summer and the lemon bunting is already completely sold out! Thank you so much to you guys for embracing the summer vibes with me!

Wimbledon might be over but there’s still time for strawberries and cream with our mini strawberry bunting available now. Mini bunting is perfect for creating a burst of decor in a small area when regular size bunting is a bit too much.

Pop over to the store now and take a look at this juicy bunting!

I’d love to hear your suggestions of what my next bunting options need to be! Pop them in the comments below.

🥳 I truly can’t believe what 2026 has meant so far for my little business.

At the start of this year i committed to trying to grow my business and I set myself a couple of targets for The Crafty Owl. I wanted to make a sale every month of 2026 and hit a total of 175 sales on Etsy. And look!!!! Here it is (I’ve actually made another sale after this so it’s 176 now!) AND I’m still on track to hit a sale for every month of this year.

My business targets may be small in comparison to others but they mean the world to me. The Crafty Owl has always been primarily a way for me to chill out away from the day job but I get so much pleasure from sharing my makes with you all!

Thank you as always for your support and custom!

Here’s to the next 175 sales!

🎄 Only 5 months til Christmas?!!!! Of course that means I’ve got Christmas owls out in the middle of a heatwave!

Honestly running a small business is bonkers, you are always so out of season with yourself! So whilst I was sat in shorts and T shirt I absolutely was prepping some lovely new Christmas makes for you guys! It’s mad but I do kind of love it, and I’m giving myself full props for being prepared for a change!

Whilst I think about this years Christmas makes I’d love to hear from you what your festive colour scheme is. Are you a traditional red and gold or do you like something a bit different?

ps. I truly am sorry for making anyone think about Christmas, please enjoy the sunshine first! 🤣

This weeks 💕 is more of a reminder. This is one I need pretty regularly but there is absolutely a freedom in being yourself unashamedly. I can’t claim to be there all the time but I am trying to learn to walk my own path.

I hope you can feel comfortable and safe on your own path this week. Remember how amazing you are! 🩷

🎾 🍓 Game set match!!! 🍓🎾

Have you been watching the tennis today? It’s my last day of annual leave, back to the grown up job tomorrow! So I’ve been pretty lazy and spent most of the afternoon watching the Wimbledon final.

I couldn’t resist sharing with you these Wimbledon perfect strawberries though! This juicy bunting is available now in the etsy shop (link in bio) and absolutely perfect for any of your summer events. Perhaps you have afternoon tea planned? Or a summer BBQ? Or you just want to sit back in the glorious sunshine with some pims! This 2m long bunting is ideal for creating a perfect summer space, and it’s made from quality cotton flags so you can reuse it time and time again!

Pop over to the Etsy shop and check it out!

🍓☀️ Sorry, I went a little AWOL this week. The heat absolutely got the better of me and my crafting melted into the same puddle I melted into halfway through the week!

But a bit of a fresh breeze today has given me the chance to finish off this bunting. I am loving the summer bunting range. Keep your eyes peeled this week as the finished bunting will be in the Etsy shop very soon!

Word on the street is there is a fair bit of important sport this weekend 🎾 ⚽️. What, if any, will you be watching?

🐾☀️ Bella over here just demonstrating how we all feel in this heat…. How much worse it must be if you have to wear a fur coat all the time! I have bought her a cooling mat which she refuses to sleep on so keeping her cool with fans. Anyone have any tips for how to keep pets cool in this weather?

Meanwhile it’s getting super summery over in the Etsy shop and I haven’t finished uploading yet so pop on over for some sunny treats!

🍋☀️ This is my entire vibe at present… and this might actually be my favourite ever bunting! ☀️🍋

Summer BBQ? Party? Dreaming of a Mediterranean summer? This bunting is absolutely made for those sunshiney moments.

Bright colourful flags including a juicy lemon print on 2m crisp white bias binding make this bunting perfect for your summer plans at home, at work or away!

What vibe are you feeling this summer? Fresh and fruity? Or exotic tropical?
