Sites we love: Draw A Stickman

Here's something very, very happy to bring the working week to a close.


It's called Draw A Stickman and I'm not going to tell you any more than that or it will spoil the most joyful surprises.

Have a wonderful weekend one and all!

A fetching etch: unshakeable etch necklace from Helpless Romantic

I'm sure most people got their first taste of their limitless/limited creative potential while playing around on an Etch-a-sketch. You spent hours carefully manipulating those two plastic dials to create a life-like depiction of a bowl of fruit using only a single line ... or you'd end up with something that looked like a whole lot of nothing, which you'd knock by accident and have to start all over again. Good news! You can relive the glory of those artistic years all over again with this unshakeable etch necklace.

Draw a picture in the style of an Etch-a-sketch image (though this time you're allowed to use a pen) and send a jpeg of it to the lovely people at Helpless Romantic. They recreate it on an Etch-a-sketch lookalike necklace so it can be kept forever. Yep, forever. You won't even lose your piece of art should someone chose to turn you upside down and give you a good shake.

Though the quality of your drawing will no doubt be priceless, the necklace costs £28.

Etsy Pick: Inballimor Colouring Book

I do love me some colouring in. it's theraputic, and as much as I'd love to be, I'm not really very good at drawing. I'd much rather colour in and paint and make a great big mess of colour all over the place.


So I want this colouring book from Inballimor! I love that there's a blank page for doodles as well as colouring.


There's no specific design, just pretty patterns. The book is $14 with $4 postage. So go grab a cup of tea, get your colouring pencils out (don't pretend that you don't know where they are). Happy colouring!
