Growing Is Another Form Of Crafting

I've had my eyes opened recently to the possibilities of being green-fingered. Yes, there is another way to be craftily creative other than pricking your fingers with a needle!

Four of my pumpkins on their journey of life!
For my birthday my sister got me my very own 'Grow Your own Peter Pumpkin' set. OK, so this is clearly for kids, but when you have a seed phobia as I do, you may not have done much growing as a child. And for the record, any seed the size of a pumpkin seed is pretty much exempt from the phobia.

So, I planted the little beggers and look at how they are coming
on! I'm so excited to see my own pumpkins start sprouting their tentacles and blossoming their little pumpkin flowers! I seem to increase my stock of pumpkins by one every year but this year will (hopefully) be a record year with at least six pumpkins to adorn my home with this Hallowe'en!

Of course, now that we've entered into July, I can't help but get all excited in anticipation of that most hallowed of months. I've started getting my crafting list ready and I'm about to make some big purchases. This year I intend to do more crafting than ever before - so look out for some exciting new products, including ghoulish greetings cards, petrifying plaques and boo-tiful bags!
