BEAUTY

Thus far these are the categories i think i want to try and some ideas i have had for projects.

I have decided that using books and online sources for tutorials will be a nice and easy way to find help but also means i can share blogs, Youtubers, authors and the like with everyone to spread the work of these great resources.

For now that's all i can share untill I get started on some of these projects. I will hopfully be posting once a week all going well.

Hope to hear feedback and any ideas you might have for projects for me to try.

best efforts 1

A new blog to try out new things from craft and art to cooking and DIY. To share my best efforts of projects I have found online and in books, to prove to myself and others that its good to take the effort and try some thing new. I can't be bothered with not being bothered any more. I'm taking a proactive stance and i'm going to learn!
