Which Wallpaper?

I'm in the indecisive stages of trying to decide which wallpaper is best for a makeover in the bedroom. Currently I have walls painted in a lovely icy blue and I'm thinking of introducing another colour such as white, cream or latte to go with it. Ideally I'm looking for either large floral designs or geometric patterns, perhaps flourishes that look great on wallpaper to create a feature wall.

Here are a few ideas I have seen so far from Homebase DIY store. However, whilst they are lovely I am thinking I have not quite found the design that I'm seeking. I like the blue and latte design (top left) and the freshness of the white and blue design (bottom left) but would like the images less floral or larger.

Have you seen any wallpapers that would suit my needs? Please send me any links. Thank you.

Questions Answered

Working on my answers for my regular column in a national crafting magazine. I answer readers dilemmas and crafting queries - that's always fun to do. I'm pleased I am able to help fellow crafters in this way and can point them in the right direction for products they require or an explaination of techniques.

A number of my projects will be appearing on the QVC shopping channel again this week, so I'm looking forward to seeing how they televise.

Plus a commission to mail off to another crafting publication. I always find it a bit scary when I've spent hours creating artwork and then it's packaged up and in the hands of the postman. It's always a worry until I know the commission has arrived.

All Wrapped Up!

It's been a while since I blogged - apologies again! Summer has been busy with a holiday to Southport, visiting Liverpool and Blackpool, with it's wonderful tower, illuminations and stunning circus. Saw the Beatles museum and infamous Cavern club and had a lovely time,taking countless photos with my trusty Olympus.

A number of projects and client commissions have kept me busy for crafting publications, I think I have much of Christmas 'all wrapped up' and ready to print. With additional commissions dropping by for Halloween - I love the spooky theme, so much fun!

I've also been writing theatre reviews (for over 12 years now) and had a few shows to cover recently, including an entertaining production by showman Martyn Lucas and national tour of fabulous musical 'Singing In The Rain' both seen at the Southampton Mayflower Theatre - one of the best theatres in the country - I love the auditorium decor!

So perhaps that's some explaination as to my limited number of postings to my blog of late. Unfortunately little personal crafting to show here right now, but do keep checking back.
If there's anything particular you would like to see on my blog, please let me know.
