✂️ Self Isolation Creations! ✂️
The world has never been weirder or scarier, but I do know that getting crafty massively helps me when I'm feeling anxious or need a good distraction from whatever s**t storm is happening at the time!

So for all those who are self isolating, or have no choice but to be out in the world and need a post work activity to help switch off and de-stress and not think about it all for a few hours, then I wanna help!

I have an office full of Caboodle back issues that I would rather see getting used and enjoyed and bring a bit of joy in these scary times, so for the price of P&P I will send a magazine out to you, and the magazine is free!
I've been using Caboodles to rip up and create collages with at Uni workshops and Zine Club and its really fun to cut them up, glue em down and make new images and patterns. I think sitting around snipping away at paper for a few hours is great for de-stressing and then you end up with some nice new art too!
All I ask is that you use the mag creatively and share a pic using the hashtag as I'd love to see what you make!

I'll keep posting collage pics up on the page with the hashtag for some inspiration too!

Of course you can read the magazine too before you rip it up, but really would love to see these used to enjoy making and creating new art - how flipping exciting! Head to www.caboodlemagazine.bigcartel.com to get yours now 😘💛 Kayti x x x

Print is not dead... but it is taking a break!!!!⁠⠀
⁠⠀
Happy New Year everyone and hope you had an ace time and are all raring to go with your creative endeavours!⁠⠀
⁠⠀
Just want to share my plans for this year, I've decided to have a little rest from making and publishing Caboodle as I am ready for a break. It's been an amazing 10 issues and 6 or so years of putting it together and I've had the most fun and met the most brilliant people along the way, creating something I am so proud of!⁠⠀
⁠⠀
But honestly, I'm KNACKERED!! Haha! So decided to have a rest year and spend some time away from the laptop and exploring some other creative passions. So there will be no new Caboodle issues this year. My plan is to start it up again when I feel ready, it might come back as an annual or as a limited run DIY edition, but whatever happens I'll come back to it fresh and excited!⁠⠀
⁠⠀
So I will be going a bit quiet on Instagram and emails - but will be back in Spring with news of a stock clearance sale.⁠ The webshop is still open with discounts aplenty!
⁠⠀
In the meantime I shall be focusing my energy on and community zine events, and my pottery project - - so give me a follow to see what I get up to!⁠⠀
⁠⠀
Endless thankyou’s for your support along the way and here’s to creative and fun new adventures for us all in 2020!
⁠⠀
Big love, Kayti x x x ⁠⠀

"To make the lips impactful, I kept the skin and the eye make-up neutral and fresh. When going so bold with a feature you don’t want to overdo it with other features distracting from the focus point of the look. I used a mixture of blue cream eyeshadows and eyeliners dabbed on to the lip, then a lip gloss over the top to seal it all in."⁠⠀
