My Mosaic

@Bow UGH booooo to kmart!! lol I hope you end up finding the sets you want!!

Hmm... not so much. Had a house inspection recently so lots of my energy was going towards cleaning. I have like a million and one crafting ideas at the moment but my 'craft room' is currently also my 'junk room' so... it's a little difficult. 😅

I’ll get them somehow @Jynx !

Urgh house inspections. We had one recently. First one for our new house and first one in years cause we never had a single one in our previous rental. Mum always stresses and more so for this one cause someone told us that the real estate we rent through are super strict. But we passed. Never heard anything from them.
Is yours strict? Any issues for this one?

What’s one idea that you’re super duper keen to get to?
I got heaps of things I wanna do too. But I started ‘junk journaling’ they kinda call it, but I don’t really use junk. I just make pretty pages. I try to do one every day. And I’m on the couch doing one now and I made a cute little tag and I can’t flippin find it anywhere! It’s literally vanished! Or the dog ate.

@Bow nah she's pretty chill. I still somehow manage to get way too absorbed in the cleaning process- like I spent over 90 minutes scrubbing the oven before I sorta stopped and went 'she's literally never opened the oven before why am I doing this' 😅

What is that, junk journalling? Never heard of it! You grab random shiny bits throughout the day and glue it in a book?

I wanna make a cat hammock to hang from the ceiling, and there's some bones I wanna clean up, few things I wanna super glue, like magnets to a bunch of tiny plastic dinosaurs so I can pop em on my roof... 😋

Haha sometimes we go over the top eh and they turn out to not be too fussed @Jynx

our second last house, D and I had a little self contained unit type thing upstairs. It was inspection time and I cleaned that thing for days! They didn’t even go up there!

junk journaling, yeah that’s typically what people do. Collect random stuff and stick it in a journal! I’ve watched videos and I’m like wow, the things people will cut up and stick on paper!

I’ve done it a little different. I pulled apart a golden circle book, stitched in extra pages plus the original pages and bound it. And then I just make pretty pages. I make flaps, pockets, tags

I want to make some worry stones. I still have furniture to paint. And I need to get in and make some market stock. I have had zero motivation. I’ve been so lazy. A real struggle

a cat hammock sounds real cool. D keeps asking for more kittens. 🐈‍⬛

Oh my gosh, those journals are so pretty and creative @Bow. 😍

Also, hello! 💛

Thanks @AuntGlow i really enjoy sitting and making them. But I do spend too much time doing it and too much money on Temu buying supplies!

how are you?

@Bow is 'junk journalling' just the modern trendy name for scrapbooking 😂

I absolutely love it though, they look stunning!

Oooh would you get another kittyyyyy?

I mean....come one, look at em! 🤣😹😝

Haha probably @Jynx ! lol just no photos really. Although I’ve printed some mini sticker photos and stuck in there.

Nah, I’m settled with just one full time permanent kitty. But will definitely do some more fostering. I’m just really hesitant to commit cause my mental health has been so bad. Some days I’ve barely been able to take care of myself, let alone D and then a litter of kittens. And then ending up in hospital for so long.
but mr Groot has been so cute. He has most definitely become a little lap kitty. Nearly every time I sit down he comes to curl up on my lap. He would never do that. And if I’m doing something or got something on my lap he will come give me a nudge.

Your two are so chilled there. Living the life. Recent flea treatment with the shirt on?

Ah, I love that!! I think if it brings you joy, then it's absolutely worth it. 💅 @Bow

Do you follow any guides/inspiration, or just go with the flow?

I am exhausted!! So much going on in my world, but happy to be here chatting with you all! 💛

I scroll Pinterest for ideas @AuntGlow but mostly just do stuff that I like. Things that bring me a little joy. Things that I want to have meaning. Words… quotes that I know I need to believe but don’t at the moment. If that makes sense.
I actually came across a magazine a little while ago, it’s a foreign mag, but in English and oh my gosh it’s so pretty. Like so pretty! I’ve been finding little pics and I will plan a page around that… once I finally decide to cut into it!

Exhaustion. Me too. Ya know when it’s like next level tired. Weary. I should go to bed. But tv.
