All my crafty friends will be giggling now, as crafters are well known for being covered in glitter, especially around Christmas. Glitter gets everywhere and you find yourself, your pillow or even your dinner having a little sparkle. That…
Summer has come and now it is time to get my legs out. Friday night was the night for a little pampering and me time. I am not one for tanning (but may be converted), but I do like the…
