Online Magazine Reading for You

There is nothing l like more than resting up with some good magazines. I love colour, design and find I get lots of inspiration from the pages of a magazine. It is therefore with surprise that I am finding myself more and more lost in the pages of a good online mag.

Check the following out

Papercut which focuses on fashion, culture and art. Amazing photoshoots and some very interesting articles. In the latest edition check out "Beauty-Conscious" , an article focused on animal testing across some very well know brands.




Pure Green Living Magazine. This eco-friendly design and style magazine looks so crisp and clean. See the info on Emily Anderson whose latest book "Eco-Chic Home" has sixty different projects for your home each re-using different household items from shopping bags to CD cases.


Gifted. Getting ready for Christmas check out Gifted. Over 200 pages of diy projects, shop profiles, free printables, and a gorgeous gift guide. Lots of inspiration for the christmas season.



Anyone know of some good UK/European online magazines ? Let me know so that I can add them to my reading list ;o) Happy Weekend all.

I am a Winner - Yippeeedddoooooo

Last week our team on EtsyIreland ran a challenge to find the best "comfort" themed treasury. It was a cold evening last week when I settled down to pull together this treasury. We were required to list at least 6 Irish sellers but no problem there all 12 of mine were Craftirelandteam members. The theme came really quickly and just love the mix of dark grey, crisp embers, makes me want to snuggle up in front of the fire. Visit the treasury here or see below.
