02 Dec THE POSTS OF CHRISTMAS PAST

This week a year ago a bunch of ladies in South London were frantically juggling cameras, laptops, saucepans and craft supplies (along with a few babies). We mustered up our limited digital know-how, threw it all together and BOOM! Ladyland was born. Since then we’ve become experts in late night blogging, dabbled in the dark arts of Google Analytics and picked up a thousand followers along the way. Yay us!

Most of you probably haven’t seen our Christmas posts from back then, so we thought we’d do a little refresh, to get you in the mood for the festive season.

Previously on Ladyland…

Clem made some pretty dazzling cookie decorations including a post on making your own cookie cutters.  See the post here.

Emma managed to turn a potato print into a hazy Alpine landscape. With this DIY video.

Selina had us drooling with her recipe for hot nuts. Find them here.

…and spiced sloe gin. Here’s how.

… and then this sloe gin cocktail. *Hic!* Here’s the recipe.

Elliot, Winnie and Maiwenn enjoyed a spot of pinata bashing with this giant mistletoe pinata. See the video here.

And we found some festive uses for loo rolls. Go on, you know you want to.

Stay tuned for lots more Ladyland crafty goodness for Christmas 2014!
