How did you find CO+K and why did you join?
I was searching the web for ideas for Christmas presents to make and stumbled across CO+K I joined becasue I wanted to be a part of all these creative people sharing projects!

Create a fun and festive house-warming party in #DIYTheParty with Sheila.
I decided to choose a theme of a house-warming party because I'm moving house in the next few weeks. I chose the wine crate stool to make extra seating for my guests; the fabric nesting buckets are to put my plants and my balls of yarn into (I'm a bit of a yarn addict and these buckets look nicer than plastic carrier bags!!!); I'd like to try the abstract wood rug beside my new back door; the haggis oatcakes were a no-brainer because I live in Scotland and love haggis and oatcakes!; the teriyaki chicken is because you can get sick of only eating haggis!; and the nachos and beans are for the same reason - they all look like great snacks to give to guests; the wine and the punch need no explanation and the eco coasters are to stand the wine glasses on to protect my furniture. With bunting hung to decorate the place - all in all it adds up to a great party.

Come behind the scenes at Christine Haynes Patterns for a #CraftRoomTour and see Christine's sewing room in Los Angeles.
I chose this room in my apartment for my sewing studio because it has a giant floor to ceiling window that looks onto a private balcony space that I have filled with plants. The window lets in a tremendous amount of indirect sunlight, making the space a delight to spend time in.
