WOYWW 560 re emergence

 If you go back to my last WOYWW post, when my friends and I last made Christmas cards for the soldiers. You will see how neat this dining/craft room was, some gremlin came in and stored all their STUFF in here lol

 I really need to get some time to get it all back to a decent living soon

 Looking towards the kitchen through the door on the left

 Desk where my Silhouette Cameo 4 is going on 

 How did the desk in the office get so out of hand?

 Hubby's side of the office

 Garage where more craft stuff is stored and kombucha in the making in bottles

 Aaacck what a horrendous mess

I went from an 8 meter by12 meter craft room to a garage and dining room. I must cull soon as all of this mess will not fit in my tiny spaces now, I can't complain, some people only have a cupboard.

Wow my last desk show was 9 months ago. How time flies. 

Since September last year I worked 2 jobs Mon - Fri, so life got very busy.

My craft room is a terrible mess as you can see.

I've had my street library installed, still waiting for some good weather so I can paint and varnish it to weather proof it.

Next craft camp coming up March 20th and I also have some exciting news to share but that will come later.

I've had my new Silhouette Cameo 4 delivered last week, still have not plugged it in to try it out, that is how hectic my life is. However I am spending much time on line collecting hints and tips and svg files. I've resisted getting a cameo since its inception, hubby has been offering to buy me one for years, I eventually caved in and let him buy me one this time as it has much more now that it is capable of than when it first came out.

Also got a new worm farm/composter delivered too.

So hop on over to The Stamping Ground to see what others are up to on their desks.

Kombucha

Since May 13 - 2019 when I got my first scoby hotel

My hotels going well

Very dark and very vinegary, I don't like making with English breakfast,
I may have to make it less stronger by using less tea leaves

Egyptian tea leaves just starting to brew, it took a long time

 

This is the green tea I use, its a Japanese brand and has rice in it, very nice flavour. 

All the above is called the 1st ferment.

I love the look of the bubbles below when you extract the kombucha after its made.
Thats all that yummy fizz. You can drink it as it is or add fruit at this stage.

Below are all the 2nd ferment where you add the fruit.

 

You will need to burp the bottles everyday, if you dont like I forgot to and one of my bottles blew up. there was mess everywhere on the carpet.

My hairdresser had this given to her and I made her a batch, her kombucha is so yummy. 

I would like one of these one day but they cost $99
