Never Give Up Never Surrender Galaxy Quest Banner

Never Give Up Never Surrender Galaxy Quest Banner

If I could only watch a certain number of movies for the rest of my life, Galaxy Quest would make the short list. It is a brilliant sci-fi comedy (you may disagree, but you would be wrong) that is both a parody and homage to sci-fi fandom. Scott and I quote lines at each other on a regular basis, so it was only a matter of time before I made something based on the film. This Never Give Up Never Surrender Galaxy Quest Banner is a must for fans and you'll find yourself rehashing the movie the ... Read More

Honorary Clubhouse Member Banner

Honorary Clubhouse Member Banner

There hasn't been a kid who loves Mickey Mouse more than Matilda. The girl lives for Mickey and I will never forget the first time she met him at Disneyland. Her absolute favourite show is Mickey Mouse Clubhouse and I can't say I blame her! It's what we load up for her for long trips (Air New Zealand even had some episodes on our flights to New Zealand and I couldn't tell you how many times she happily watched them). She even had a Mickey collection that was taking over her bed before we moved. ... Read More

Star Trek Comm Badge

Star Trek Comm Badge

Scott and are are currently about halfway through watching Star Trek: Deep Space Nine. It's the only series I was missing in my Star Trek repertoire. To be fair, I had watched a good bit when I was pregnant and on bedrest with Madeline, but I was so out of it that I can only remember bits and pieces. I have incredibly fond memories of watching The Next Generation as it was aired and it's a lot of fun to be back in that universe. I couldn't pass up the opportunity to make a quick Star Trek Comm ... Read More

Mickey Mouse Cutout Cuff Bracelet

Mickey Mouse Cutout Cuff Bracelet

Scott and I have been daydreaming about sneaking away to Disneyland Paris for a couple of days now that the weather is warm and the flowers are blooming. The need for a Disney fix is real! Just the thought of riding Tower of Terror, eating a Yoda Cupcake, and seeing the castle in all its glory is enough to yank the girls out of school and get on a flight (except for the pesky UK school rules that don't allow that exact thing). Since we can't go now, I'm getting my fix in other ways like wearing ... Read More

How to Ride the Hogwarts Express

I used to daydream about the girls being introduced to Harry Potter and instantly falling in love the way I did. As they started growing up, I got antsy that it was never going to happen. Last year, though, Madeline finally started the books and hasn't looked back. I've lost count of how many times she's read all of the books--we had to make a rule that she has to read something new in between rounds of Harry Potter. As she's gotten more and more into this magical world, she's become aware of ... Read More

Harry Potter Dementor Cross Stitch Pattern

Harry Potter Dementor Cross Stitch Pattern

We've had Harry Potter on the brain more than ever before now that we live in Edinburgh. We're surrounded by Harry Potter gift shops and places that inspired the books. It's a lot of fun to walk through town and see the inspirations behind Hogwarts and Diagon Alley. Every time there's a dress up day at school, we're overrun by kids in wizard cloaks. I had a lot of fun creating this Harry Potter Dementor Cross Stitch Pattern, even if it did take me a Hogwarts year to stitch it up. **This ... Read More

Welcome

about me

I’ve wanted to be an archaeologist, in theatre, a judge, and to run a museum. While I try to decide what I want to be when I grow up, I spend my time crafting and exploring the world. Read More…
