If you’re a Strictly fan you’ll be familiar with the ‘J’ word. It’s shorthand for the ‘journey’ that the celebrity dancers take on the TV show. They start off as nervous, raw beginners and end as accomplished performers passionate about dance.
The ‘J’ word came up this month when one reader told us how she was reticent to start on miniatures because “as a mother, I often feel guilty about indulging myself”. But Gabrielle did take the plunge and embarked on her very personal creative journey from novice to passionate house-builder. She now declares herself “officially hooked”.
Elsewhere Sandra has also had a bit of a journey, re-building a house her sister was going to throw out. She completes the tale of her mad Tudor adventure this issue and has even included a Royal story that reads like an early episode of The Crown.
Sandra also talked to Jill Lucas about her shabby chic skills, and we’re delighted to feature the room Jill designed as part of a club project on the front cover.
Scenes in books are still so popular, largely because they don’t take up too much room. If you fancy having a go, we show you how to create your own. There’s also a Harry Potter book to admire this issue and the woman who made it talked about her workshop as a place where “time stands still” and where she can “be truly happy.” Sounds like an episode of Strictly.
Happy New Year from all of the DHW team.
