Hiatus

Hello!

After three solid years of non-stop action, I Love Handmade is unfortunately having to take a break. My Dig The Earth workload has increased dramatically (yay!), but the flip side of that means it has become harder to dedicate time to research and blog every day.

A huge thank you to readers old and new for following, commenting, sponsoring and submitting work for inclusion, it really has kept I Love Handmade going.

Hopefully I'll be back soon, fully refreshed with loads more handmade loveliness to show you. Until then…

:)

Thank you!

Tunnock's Caramel Wafer Apron by Gillian Kyle @ Fab UK



Whether you’re a Nigella, a Jamie or an Ottolenghi fan, you need this Tunnocks Caramel Wafer Apron for your battles in the kitchen. Everyone knows it’s best to side with a Scot. Contrary to popular belief, Tunnocks is not the only confectionery available in Scotland. However it might as well be: school children are treated with teacakes and wafers at lunch and every good Scot knows the heavenly pleasure of dipping a Tunnocks Caramel Wafer in a cuppa. Dream. So don that apron, chase down a haggis (if you think they've got legs you've got problems) and do it the Scottish way. Another fantastic product from Gillian Kyle. 100% organic, unbleached premium cotton.


This apron is available at a very special price over on Fab UK for the next few days. Fab is a global sale site with lots of brand new offers every day. If you've not heard of Fab and want a chance to bag some fantastic designer bargains, just click here and join today! You'll also get a £5 gift to put towards your first purchase! Enjoy!

Scottish Hero T-Shirt by Ole Originals


I love the humour in this limited edition argyle print t-shirt from Ole Originals, a pattern usually associated these days with golf wear or socks. This argyle design would surely make any Scot glow with pride. Feel free to wear with a kilt! This limited edition shirt has a soft vintage feel and is made from the highest quality fabrics available.
