22 weeks, 4 days pregnant
  1. Gender predictor tests are crap.
  2. I can’t wait to buy tiny golf shirts.
  3. I am making tons of pee-pee teepees.
  4. I already love this little boy fiercely.
  5. Dreams can change.

  3. haha, no kidding!!! I was asking everyone and even made a poll on my blog (by the way if you want to read it, give me your email (gmail) and I can send you an invite.

    It was crazy.. everyone told me I was having a boy (my midwife still thinks it is a boy…)

    well, I guess we will find out in ~ 98 days!!!

I’m Heather Laura Clarke. I’m journalist and blogger in beautiful Nova Scotia, I have an 9-year-old son and a 7-year-old daughter, I married my high school sweetheart, and this is the story of my handmade life.

I have depression and anxiety, and I fight like hell every day to keep it from taking over my life. Making things isn’t just a hobby — it’s part of what keeps me alive.

Whether I’m decorating a room, busting out my power tools to build furniture, getting muddy in the pottery studio, sewing clothes for my kids, or cross-stitching a swear word, I’m all about using my creativity to craft a life I love.

I saw his Christmas concert twice today and I’d see it a zillion times more just to hear his sweet little singing voice. . . JK I’m good. Twice is good. 😂😂😂 . . #handmade #sewing #sewingforkids #handmadeclothing #tweens #myboy Well, the weather outside ISN’T frightful (yet at least) but school is cancelled anyway. This little princess was so sad because it meant her Christmas concert is postponed. So we compromised by doing a little photo shoot by the tree. I mean, you can’t waste freshly-curled hair and a touch of makeup. . . Remember when I sewed this dress a few weeks ago? Check out the IGTV video to see it come together from a pile of fabric and thread. . . #sewing #sewingforkids #handmadeclothing #christmasconcert #velvet #christmasdress Yes, I do! . . . #quilting #creativelife #christmasornaments #christmastree This little fur pouf cost me just $9 to make, using faux fur and a thrifted footstool. Full tutorial over on the blog today! . . . #DIY #handmade #homedecor #DIYhomedecor #livingroom #cozy #hygge #pouf #diyhome I spent hours woodworking this morning and it felt great to be back at it — after what felt like months of just sewing and painting. Handmade Christmas gifts, coming right up! . . . #woodworking #craftsman #webuildpride #womenwithpowertools #allthesawdust #building #handmade #wood Once I finished my impasto flowers, I had to decide what to do next! I settled on trying another portrait — yikes — except this one is going to be in a more abstract, impasto style. . . In this week’s class I did the “underpainting” which is just laying on a base layer of colour. . . I’ve always loved this photo of my babies, back when they could both fit in a grocery cart baby seat! . . #oilpainting #oilpaintings #workinprogress #artclass #underpainting #underpaintinginprogress
