It is the turn of the wonderfully talented Sarah Dunkley aka SezzieD to choose our theme this month. We will also find out some more about her as she introduces herself to you in more detail. Lets welcome Sarah!
Hiya my lovelies!
I'm proper chuffed to be hosting this month's challenge!
Let me start by introducing myself...
Ok well, I'm a wife & mum of 4 & I also have 3 step-kids & 3 step-granddaughters (no, I'm not old enough!) I work at a local primary school as a teaching assistant, so I guess children seem to be major part of my life! In the photo below is a Chinese dragon I made for last years school production. It's made from a veg box, some plastic bottles & a few other bits & bobs!

Before I became a Teaching Assistant, I was a self employed mixed media artist. I ran workshops & sold my work at local art markets & emporiums. I also made bespoke commissions.
 |
| This commission was a cutlery box which I turned into a jewellery box. |
 |
| This commission was a personalized shadow box. |
I was recently diagnosed with Fibromyalgia which has made me rethink & re-prioritise things. I have decided to work part time in the next school year to give myself some more 'down time'.
I really only make items as gifts or as 'therapy' now. Maybe in the future it will change, maybe it won't, I just take everyday as it comes!

So without further ado here's my theme for this month's challenge...
