#MumsNight – How to be a Crafty Mum
One of the things I always thought I’d be when I’d be a Mom/Mum would be to be a Crafty Mum. I’d have crafty fun projects for my kids to do, all organized and ready for them to express their creativity – and we’d display it with pride around the house.
The reality has turned out quite a bit differently. I don’t have some some wonderful storehouse of crafty doodahs, no tempera paints or supplies, I don’t have ideas on what to have the kids make, the time to organize or do it – or the energy to clean it all up.
That desire though – to be that Mum and do those Crafty things is still there though – so for this week’s #MumsNight I’ve enlisted the help and wisdom of Maggy – the crafty goddess behind RedTedArt the blog where she shares her crafty ideas and projects. Maggy via @RedTedArt twitter account will be co-hosting this week’s #MumsNight

I love everything on Red Ted Art, but particularly the gorgeous cardboard dolls house she featured in her post for us!
I love the treasure/keepsake boxes. They look simple to make and not create too much mess in the process
