And surely ye'll be your pint-stowp! And surely I'll be mine! And we'll tak a cup o' kindness yet, For auld lang syne

I've started 2012 with a fairly hefty hangover and with the usual 'healthy eating' resolution well and truly broken  (anyone else have Bodeans for breakfast?) however I can't help feeling really positive and excited about the year ahead. I'll be making a whole host of resolutions, the details of which I won't bore you with here. My main resolution however is to try to make something more of this blog.

I started blogging as a way to focus my thoughts and ideas, to try to inspire myself and inspire others about crafting and homemaking. I found it harder than I imagined - as I didn't have a clear goal or direction it was sometimes difficult to move the blog forward. Now after nearly two years I feel that I've got a clear idea of what it is I'm trying to achieve - over the next 12 months I'm going to be spending more time here developing my writing, projects and communicating with other bloggers.
