I have been making things for years with upcycled yarns and materials. Earlier this year i had a chat with my mum up in Yorkshire who mentioned maybe painting things, spoons watering cans etc. I thought nothing of it until my daughter and i saw a few painted stones on a local market in Totnes a few weeks ago. They had sayings on them and they inspired me. I bought the paints in all the bright colours i love and just started, with no idea what i was going to paint. I started on stones and two weeks later i am running out of space in my house, as i cant stop myself from buying even more wooden spoons and anyhing else wooden that i can upcycle and breath some life back into. Im having the time of my life.....i think i have a new passion xxxx
