This one was definitely not a DIY project! 💗 I've been a little bit quiet on the business front for the last few months, but it's been for good reason! After a long fertility journey and two losses, I found out in January that I was pregnant. I decided to take a little step back to focus on my pregnancy and take things easy. Yesterday (at 18 weeks and 4 days) we were delighted to find out that we are having a baby girl! Baby Werner is due September 2022. Whilst I'm still going to be taking it a little bit easier (no swinging heavy timber around) I have really missed working and being creative, so I'm going to start creating again and easing back into things - look out for some new products (coming soon) Lots of love from That DIY Girl (plus a baby on board - soon to be Mummy's little helper) 🌈

In previous posts I've mentioned my passion for sustainability and its importance within my business.
💚♻️💚
From repurposing items, to using reclaimed materials; I'm always thinking of creative ways to reduce waste.
♻️💚♻️
I made these custom tags for Connie’s Little Feet from a piece of birch plywood (off my scrap pile). It got me thinking about more sustainable branding & packaging options for my customers.
💚♻️💚
I'm pleased to announce I will be offering discounts, for customers who choose to fulfill their order with reclaimed materials (subject to availability)
♻️💚♻️
I am also trialling a packaging recycling scheme, which I will reveal more about very soon!

Ah Monday...my favourite day of the week! (just kidding) Is anyone's favourite day Monday? Tips for Monday Motivation (without caffeine) much needed! 😩☕ At least I managed to get some oak cut for a few commissions. How's everyone doing? Back on lockdown? 🔐Free to roam? 🏃‍♀️

How cute are these little alphabet houses! 💙💙 I'm down the rabbit hole with children's toys, CE testing and organic paints/finishes. These little blocks are laser engraved and finished with beeswax.

We have a few products in the pipeline but what wooden toys do you think your little one's would love to play with?
