Being Jasmines Crafts
You might realise that Rosie isn’t writing this post, and if you don’t then you don’t pay much attention. I am definitely not Rosie, I don’t run a blog with a name so friendly and I don’t paint awesome post cards. I realise that I’m sounding like a let down already!
If you’re wondering what I’ve got to do with Rosie, I’ll explain. I’m Jaz and I’m 13, I run www.jasminescrafts.blogspot.com where you can see Rosies awesome guest post along with lots of other arty crafty things. I also run a more sarcastic blog www.beingjaz.blogspot.com Rosie and I are best friends - that explains why we’re posting on each others blogs - she’s probably just as odd and as sarcastic as I am, I reckon it’s one of the reasons we get along so well, Rosie, didn’t tell me which style she’d like me to write from, so I decided both! Which is why the title is BeingJasminesCrafts, instead of just one.
If you havn’t guessed already, I’m very much into arts and crafts. I’m addicted to knitting, a teenage knitter I know, I’ve heard all the jokes that mostly come from Rosie. I like painting leggings, attacking boring clothes with paint and I’m addicted to glitter. And that’s what JasminesCrafts is all about, random creations and knitted projects.
BeingJaz on the other hand, isn’t. In fact it’s got very little to do with photos of hats and scarves I’ve made because I couldn’t face posting photos on two blogs. I hate bloggers photo uploader. I admire Rosie for running a photo based blog, I really do! With the time it takes to upload one photo, I could have made a cup of tea!
So now, in true sugar and buttercup style I’ll leave you with a photo (and shall go make a cup of tea)
Because pie, is important.

quote
I think that if I ever have kids and they’re upset, I won’t tell them that people are starving in China or anything like that because it wouldn’t change the fact that they were upset. And even if somebody else has it much worse, that doesn’t really change the fact that you have what you have.

Aim for the moon, if you miss, you may just hit a star~
i got the whole worldddd in my hands
One of the reasons i love camping so much in deep in the countryside is that I can see the stars. Shooting stars are lovely too (well meteors, but shooting stars are real also!)
I haven’t really been writing much about me, mainly because i haven’t known what to write and i’ve not really had much motivation. But buy me a constellation to be named after and i’ll be happy and tell you anything you want to know ;)

you can’t let people know how you feel? No matter how much you want or need to.
No kidding ;)
Sometimes you have to overcome your fears and do it though, don’t you? …need to
Going to try and make this post a bit less depressing by adding a few nice photos;
I love this :) dreamerrrrr
Today i saw the cutest little kitty…usually i’m not a cat person but she was adorable :) kept coming up to me for cuddles!
