Hello, I'm Mel and I live with my husband and 2 children in Tasmania, Australia. :)
I love to make nice things, spend time with my family, bake yummy treats, read pretty craft books, give handmade gifts, toast marshmallows in our wood fired oven and veg out at home.
As a family we love to cook pizzas in our newly built wood fired oven, watch dvds or play board games together every Friday night and cook pancakes for breakfast on Sundays. Rich and Bella love to go dirt bike riding and I'm very passionate about teaching little ones to sew, knit, crochet, cook and create. We like to have fun together and ensure that our kids grow up in a happy and secure environment.
You'll find a variety of topics here on One Crafty Mumma including tutorials, recipes, snippets of our everyday life as a family, sewing projects and a peek into our world of crafting.
Kids in the Kitchen and My Top Ten are two regular features that go up on the blog every week: Tuesdays and Sundays.
