About

About My Site, I’m an Australian, actually a Queenslander who lives in the South East region of Queensland.  We have brisbane-1433132_1280a special club that Queenslanders belong to, no club fees, our club house is all over the State, we are very proud, loyal and love our State with a passion.  Just watch any sport that has the QLD tag….
I have lived in other places but there is no place like South East Queensland especially if you were born here.
I have learnt lots of things to keep my creative side happy.  There is a saying, if you learn something using your hands you never forget how to do it. As a child I have learnt to knit, crochet, tat, embroider, sew, and paint water colours (not all that well). Later the other crafts came along.  I lived in Malaysia for a couple of years and many other crafts were offered there like copper tooling and macrame.
So my site here is about sharing lots of those plus other things I enjoy doing.  I’ve always loved furniture and furnishings, gardening and gardens and more recently anything connected with restoring and repurposing furniture etc that could have ended up at the tip so that it can be re-loved.
My site will share what I know, what I have and what I’ve found with you if you want to come along for the ride.
If you’re interested in gardening then you may like to take advantage of My Garden Journal to keep a record of your garden and what is happening.  You can join the mailing list just over there on the right —->> and it will be emailed back to you.
Looking forward to seeing you soon 🙂
Thank You!
