I feel like I’ve been sharing loads of free colouring pages for adults recently but then I figure, hey why not? It’s a lovely chilled out activity and who doesn’t appreciate the chance to relax, especially if it’s with something free?! Today I’m sharing a sweet Valentines Day colouring page for adults.

Free Colouring Pages for Adults: Maps
I’ve really enjoyed sharing some free colouring pages for adults recently and today I’m sharing some new ones for you to download – these fantastic maps! The Ordnance Survey has recently released some of their fabulous maps as downloads that can be printed off and coloured in, having tried the London map myself I can confirm that they are brilliant! Really relaxing and there’s lots of little bits that give you a good excuse to get lots of colours out. Which of these maps to colour in is your favourite?

How to make a skirt from one metre of fabric
I love sewing but I don’t always have loads of time to do it. Also patterns scare me a bit, they look so complicated! This skirt pattern is super simple to follow though because all you need to do is be able to cut in a straight like and use your sewing machine – there really is no pattern to follow! You can make it without using a tape measure and best of all you really can make it from only one metre of fabric.

How to make a paper gift bag
Advert. Last week I was challenged by the people at wrap.me to make something cool using their gorgeous wrapping paper. I’m a big fan of theirs having used their paper before to cover a notebook and my kids are always super pleased when we get some of their paper through the door, nothing cheers a four year old up as much as the site of their own face in print! As the paper is ultimately designed for wrapping gifts I thought I’d do just that, but instead of just parcelling something up I thought I’d challenge myself to working out how to make a paper gift bag! After a couple of tries I realised it’s actually a lot simpler than it seems so I’ve made a little video so that you can make one too!…
How to Make a Bouquet Out of Baby Clothes
Sometimes a challenge comes through at just the right time and for us there couldn’t have been a better time to be asked to make a bouquet out of baby clothes. My days with a newborn are pretty much a hazy sleep deprived memory at the moment but my kids are about to welcome cousins into the family for the first time – so exciting! I originally thought I’d be doing this craft on my own but when my four year old son saw what I was doing he wanted to be involved too, this really was a joint effort. This cute craft would be a great baby shower idea or is just a fun gift to make for a mum to be!
