Who Is Melly?

Hi I'm Melissa

Welcome to my Melly Made It blog!

As this is my first post i think i should introduce myself. I'm 28 years old i live in an apartment in Berkshire England with my boyfriend Ben and my two chinchillas Mr Jingles and Oscar. I work from home as a Chat Host for Jackpotjoy.com

I am interested in cooking and crafts and photography and i often find myself stumbling upon images of cross stitch, recipes and many other things that catch my eye on the Internet which often lead me to reading peoples blogs, which have all inspired me to start one too!

I enjoy giving things a go and trying things i haven't done before when it comes to crafts and cookery!


This Blog will help me focus on things Ive wanted to do and try but never got round to doing them yet.I love trying new recipes and learning new skills.


 I have recently gotten into cross stitching. I am very much a beginner to be honest and i am in awe at other peoples work and designs, i get a buzz of inspiration when i look at them and i immediately want to create something as wonderful myself.

 Last year i brought some cross stitching books but i have found myself become easily overwhelmed by the large intricate designs. But then i have to remember not to get intimidated as I'm only just starting out. I think this blog will be a nice record of how my skills improve over time (hopefully!) I plan to update my blog with things i have made and share with like minded people. 

I welcome comments and ideas from you so please feel free to share :)
