Goodbye January, hello 2026! It’s been a surprisingly productive start to the year. I officially launched my mammoth Pokémon 151 challenge, hit a massive 30lb weight loss milestone, and finally got glasses! Read on for a full look back at my month in crafting, life updates, and a look ahead to February.
2026 is the 30th anniversary of Pokémon, and to celebrate, I’m taking on two massive, long-term challenges! One involves my trusty book folding skills and the original 151 Pokémon, while the second pushes me way out of my comfort zone into the world of video to document a huge card collecting goal. Read on to find out my plans!
Hello 2026! Looking back, the end of last year was full of positives, especially finally launching this blog. As we head into the new year, I’m rejecting pressure-filled “resolutions” that I know I won’t keep. Instead, I’m setting some gentle plans across my crafting, online space, photography, and real life. Read on to see what I’m aiming for this year
Happy New Year! Looking back, December was surprisingly laid-back and organised for once. This month’s post is entirely imageless (oops!), but I’m chatting about enjoying Minecraft on my new PC, dealing with a pesky bout of tendinitis, lovely birthday celebrations, and navigating a quiet Christmas while on my weight loss journey.
November felt like a quiet, in-between month, but it still brought some bright moments. From colourful Pokémon crafting to a long-awaited cinema trip and a surprise new PC, there were plenty of little highlights tucked in among the slower days. Here’s a quick look back at how the month unfolded.
October was a whirlwind of creativity, confidence, and a little bit of chaos! From taking part in my first-ever craft fair and giving my Etsy shop a complete makeover, to starting new book projects and even trying my hand at penpalling — it’s been a busy month full of growth, gratitude, and a few exciting new adventures.
