  6. Hi Claire! Bronwyn here from Queen B Creative Me. Thanks for you comment on my Heart Shaped maps. Hubby and I both did our undergrads at Western and went to Althouse for Teacher's College together. What year did you graduate? Are you teaching in London now?? I grew up in Exeter but now live in Milton. I taught kindergarten of 11 years, but now I am a music teacher. I just took a snoop around your blog. You have great projects! I am a new follower and look forward to seeing what else you come up with in the future.

  16. I haven't tried the Catalina Mist yet, but I'm dieing too! I really like the pretty pastel blues I've seen on the mason jars. I'm looking forward to trying it one of these days.
