Have you ever come across a Nigerian DIY blog? Well I don’t think so cos I searched and searched and couldn’t find any – one of my favourite things to do is DIY/Sewing/Crafting/Designing as well finding new interesting blogs. And ever since I ‘ve been ‘hooked’ on blogs like www.amatterofstyle.blogspot.com, www.abeautifulmess.typepad.com, www.ispydiy.com, www.psimadethis.com and so many others, I secretly prayed that one day I’ll find a guilty pleasure in a diy blog from a Nigerian point of view where different fabrics (including ankara) would be used to create beautiful clothes and accessories.

















So the idea about this blog came to me circa 2009. I basically just jotted down basic diy ideas and what I wanted my blog to be but thanks to procrastination, bad time slots etcetera I haven’t been able to get it up and running until now. *grin*
Seeing that this is my first post, I’ll keep it short, but do stay tuned for lots of goodies and interesting stuff in store as I’ll be posting pictures, tutorials, guides, links, tips, designing /shopping/sewing adventures/processes on this blog.
