Crafty Things to do when the Football is on!

UPDATE: Unfortunately these projects are no longer available

Over at Tesco Living you'll find a slideshow of 30 things to do when the football is on (perfect for people who aren't super excited about the World Cup!) which includes some crafty projects made by me.

Make a little house keyring from felt...

These were all a lot of fun to make! I'm especially pleased with the patchwork coasters as I've not done much patchwork before and I love how these turned out.
