If you’re new around here, I’m Helen, the creator behind Everything Crafty. I’m so excited to share my very first blog with you!
Everything Crafty started as a side hustle and has grown into a full-time business after we relocated to Devon in 2018.
Whether you’ve found me through Etsy, Instagram, or a recommendation from a friend, I’m so glad you’re here. At Everything Crafty, the start of 2025 has been all about fresh starts, exciting updates, and personal highlights.
What to expect from this blog
This is where I’ll share a little bit of everything—from behind-the-scenes glimpses into my business and life to creative inspiration and updates on exciting new products.
A little about me: I’m a 40-something mum of two, living in beautiful North Devon with a view of Exmoor National Park. Our home is full of character, chaos, and animals—I share it with Miss Marmalade and Pebbles (our two cats), Barney the beagle, and four hens who keep us well-stocked with fresh eggs. Everything Crafty UK is my passion, and I love creating hand-personalised gifts, stationery, and seasonal treasures for people who appreciate the little details.
This week in my world
Football has been a big part of our weekends recently! Isabella has started playing for a second team, meaning double the matches and double the excitement. This past weekend, Chulmleigh won 3-1 on Saturday, and Crediton secured a 4-3 victory on Sunday.
Next week, I’ll be stepping out of the house and into a different role—I’ll be working at the secondary school invigilating exams. It’s a change from my usual routine, and I’m really looking forward to the experience!
We’ve also started planning a family adventure for later this year. If you’re curious about where we’re thinking of heading, you can take a peek at my Pinterest board. Dreaming up new trips is such a lovely way to get through these grey winter days.
On the business front, I’ve got some exciting news—a brand-new product is on its way! I’ve been working on this since Christmas, and I can’t wait to share the details with you very soon.
Let’s stay connected
I’d love for this blog to be a place where we can connect. If there’s anything you’d like me to share or write about, let me know in the comments.
Thanks for stopping by, and here’s to an amazing 2025!
Your crafty friend,
Helen x
