Finished my first craft project of the year, then immediately started a new one that’s both ridiculous and very time consuming.

There’s a new set of bunnies too, in time for Easter 🐰🐰 askingfortrouble.co.uk/collections/...

Lots of different kawaii badges sorted into compartments in a box

Pretty sure I mainly make badges because I like organising them into their little compartments 🥰 Most of my characters are now back in stock!

My fun neighbours across the landing finally taking down the Christmas baubles around their front door on 6th Feb. Left the fairy lights up, of course 💖

Living in a small town is always entertaining. The leisure centre got majorly damaged in the big storm so now the library is a temporary gym and the park cafe is a temporary library.

I feel like hugging a giant kawaii onigiri would fix my entire life 🍙💕

A box of Bastogne minis and a can of Fristi

No prizes for guessing where I am from my hotel snacks.

Pusheen and tree-shaped cookies decorated with pastel icing and sprinkles

Finished one handmade gift and also baked and decorated cookies for the Pusheen Box review photos so maybe Christmas is still going to happen 🎄

Maybe one year I will stop making ambitious Christmas crafting plans that I keep putting off until December 19th 😬

Back from my annual pre-Christmas trip to the big supermarket in Dumbarton to goggle at all the stuff we don’t get in my little town. I bought 4 different types of biscuits 👍

@emusingemma.bsky.social thank you for my first Christmas card of the year! I don’t have a PO box anymore but they delivered it anyway. I’ll send you my home address.

GPSR - What you need to know as an artist or maker on Folksy | Folksy Blog A guide to the new General Product Safety Regulations (GPSR) and what they mean for artists, designers and makers on Folksy.

Folksy’s guide is the clearest one I’ve seen but also the most depressing! Really feels impossible to survive as a tiny business any more. blog.folksy.com/2024/11/26/g...

A collage of my colourful kawaii products including pins, keyrings, stickers, calendars, stamps, notepad, shopper bag and the book I wrote.

I don’t think I have even mentioned my shop here! I have lots of cute things that are all original designs by me and often eco-friendly. askingfortrouble.co.uk

Always lovely when someone can’t just return their order but insist on telling me how much they hate it in great detail.

Little Nintendo branded box

My fixed joycons packaged in individual custom boxes

Used the Nintendo repair service for the first time - absolutely delightful experience. Not only did they fix the epic stick drift on my ancient joycons, they fixed a bunch of other problems I didn’t even know about and did it all for free in under a week! Cute box too.

Bought this too so good day all round. I definitely need a reread before it gets here.

Cinnamon buns, just out of the oven

Cinnamon buns with lots of icing on top

Baked cinnamon buns today for the first time! Also decided on my new glasses - they’re green so I’ll have to edit my profile pic soon.

Just updated to Photoshop 2025 so I guess I live in the future now. That’s what you get for not reading the T&Cs.

Promo image for Stitch with cute embroidered hoops

Playing a lot of Stitch on my Switch at the moment. If you need a cute embroidery-themed puzzle game, it’s half price just now.

An IKEA-branded bike in front of a beautiful sea view in Helensburgh.

Hello! It’s been a while. Starting to pick up the pieces after a summer of bad news. Happy to be back on my bike ☺️

Cool! You definitely should. Always a high chance there will be something else going on. Anyway, email me when you get around to planning stuff. My first name at gmail

This makes me feel very old. Let me know if you need some recs or want to meet up! Glasgow is still tremendous.

An actually massive piece of wood on the beach at high tide

Okay, they weren’t exaggerating - it’s even bigger than I expected! You could fit a dozen people on top, no problem.

Not yet! Everyone is still debating whether it's part of the pier and sharing their Nessie-style photos of it floating around beforehand. Solid entertainment.

hope the storm ends soon so I can go and meet my town's newest celebrity, a massive piece of wood that got thrown up onto the beach.

An extremely complicated official waste collection calendar with far too many symbols

My simple and clean redesign

It's that time again when I have to make my own waste collection calendar because the official one is an incomprehensible nightmare.

Just failed my personal version of Whamageddon by finally seeing some footage of the king’s coronation. It was a good run!

If only! Sadly my hometown skies are filled with seagulls and jet fighters.

Sunrise with a huge rainbow coloured cloud

Rainbow skies this morning 🌈☁️

It would be so easy to make a fun positive one we’d actually share as well! Best sellers (without numbers!), top countries shipped to, a few 5 star reviews etc.
