10 years ago a local lady brought a copy of my book Crafting A Succesful Small Business and that was the start of a wonderful friendship.

(If you want to be one of my wonderful friends buying a copy of my books is advisable but not compulsory 🤣🙈 https://www.amazon.co.uk/Joanne-Dewberry/e/B008NX50PG%3Fref=dbs_a_mng_rwt_scns_share)

I struggled to select a few images as we've done alot in 10 years!
💙 Numerous craft workshops
💙 Many, many networking sessions
💙 Birthdays - both personal and business
💙 Brunches, lunches, dinners and cake (sometimes wine)
💙 Beach days, paddleboarding, Christmas lights
💙 Handbag charms for Hotter's website
💙 and my wedding 😍

Happy 10th Business Birthday 🥳 Made By Me Craft Parties can't wait to celebrate later.

We had so much yesterday at out Mini Makes and Bakes Halloween class at The Hub on the Heath.
Thank you to everyone who came, we had so much fun making spell and potion books, complete with secret pockets and learning to write in invisible ink!
Biscuits by Sarah B taught everyone how to decorate the spookiest of biscuits too!

Do you need some easy half-term activity ideas for the kids? These Halloween party games are also great for entertaining the kids at home for an hour or two.

💚 Hanging doughnuts on a string and eating them with no hands.
💚 Toilet paper mummy wrapping race.
💚 Halloween bingo (see the blog for links).
💚 Spaghetti rummage (grim but fun – hide spooky feeling and looking things in cooked spaghetti).
💚 Pin the mouth on the pumpkin/ nose on the witch etc.
💚 Spooky treasure hunt - do a sweet hunt around the house. Turning off the lights and giving the kids a torch to find treats. Glow sticks would be great fun too!

What are your favourite Halloween activities? Let me know below ⬇

Would you like to bring some excitement back to meal times this week? 👾
How about going a bit bonkers and cooking up one of these daring dinners? The kids will love it!

💜 Worms and eyeballs (meatballs and spaghetti)
💜 Witches fingers (hot dog sausages).
💜 Mummy hot dogs (wrap thin puff pastry strips around the sausage to look like bandages).
💜 Decorate your own pizza to create spooky faces/mummies/spider webs (think strips of ham or cheese and use cookie cutters for food shapes).

If in doubt, add edible eyes to everything!

Happy 10th business birthday to me! ✨
10 years ago today I left my job at Bournemouth University and set up Made By Me Craft Parties.

✨ If I hadn't set up Made By Me I wouldn't have the amazing friends I have now.

✨ If I hadn't started Made By Me I might not have seen as much of my babies as I do. I get to be there for them after school, during the holidays, most weekends and when they're sick.

✨ If I hadn't set up Made By Me I wouldn't get to craft all day and get paid for it.

✨ If I hadn't started Made By Me I wouldn't have the confidence and resilience I do now.

I'm beyond grateful for each and every single wonderful human who has supported me over the last 10 years. Thanks a gazillion million 🩷 You're the best.

I can't wait to celebrate with a party on the 7th (don't forget to enter the competition to come - see previous post for details).

🎃 Is pumpkin carving too stressful?
How about mixing things up this year and painting your pumpkins? It's also a great choice for little ones.

It's best to paint your pumpkins white to start with and then add your design on top. Use poster paint or acrylics for best results.

Turn mini pumpkins into doughnuts (see blog for tutorial) or Kailo Chic created these gorgeous 80's inspired pumpkins and just look at those gold storks!

My Story - Making parties special one sequin at a time!

I create fun, personalised and beautiful craft parties for children, teens and adults for any occasion on the South coast. Events include birthdays, hen parties, baby showers, corporate activities, team activities, festivals, leaving parties and weddings. I have designed lots of lovely party themes and activities for you to choose from, but you can suggest your own ideas. Please just ask!

As well as planning parties, I’m the proud co-founder of Mini Makes and Bakes, where, together with Sarah B (Biscuits By Sarah B) we run themed biscuity, crafty sessions for 2-5 year olds and also school holiday classes for older children.

I absolutely love what I do and I’m always looking for fellow businesses to collaborate with, please get in touch if you think we could work together in some way.

Highlights In May 2018, I was the winner of Creative of the Year award in the Successful Women In Business Awards.
