Kirstie Allsopp presents...

Kirstie Allsopp (of Location, Location, Location fame) has a new show on Channel 4 - Kirstie's Homemade Home.

Packed with ideas for your home, tackling different rooms of the house each week, Kirstie shows us how to reuse, recycle and create. She visits skilled crafts people and artists who teach her new skills. Save money and keep your home 'on trend', as handmade items become the new 'designer labels'.

Check out her page on Channel 4's website for full instructions on how to make a lampshade, an envelope cushion, how to decoupage and more!

With the current economical climate, anything we can make or re-use helps us save money and goes towards a healthier planet too. So any craft fans should make the most of this current trend and get crafting! Whether its for your own home, as gifts or to sell, handmade items are the hot trends in fashion, interior design and toys.

Don't forget, if you're tempted to try any of Kirstie's ideas, Knit and Sew has plenty of supplies to make the project easier - fabrics, threads, needles, scissors, wool, fabric paints, ribbons and buttons, adhesives, kits and more!
