Around 15 women would meet in the cafe on a weekly basis and so were formed The Cottage Crafters. After returning from honeymoon Jodie began her craft and rustic lifestyle blog 'A Handmade Cottage'. A few months later, Jodie was approached by her local newspaper to become their weekly craft columnist. She subsequently presented a craft segment on ITV's This Morning. In 2018, Jodie moved with her musician husband Andy, young daughter Frankie and Jack Russell Ralphy to a large 18th-century flint stone house in the Norfolk countryside and she has been turning it into her own handmade cottage ever since.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"text\"\u003e\n\u003cspan\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"text\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eMurdoch Books\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"text\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"text\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003ePub Date: April 09, 2024\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"text\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"text\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003e1.18\" H x 9.53\" L x 7.48\" W\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"text\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"text\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003e224 pages\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"text\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"text\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003ehardcover\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c!----\u003e","brand":"Hachette","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44077024313530,"sku":"9781922616784","price":34.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0444\/2213\/5968\/files\/91BrbR7R9wL._SL1500.jpg?v=1723042826"},{"product_id":"the-natural-soapmaking-handbook-by-simi-khabra","title":"The Natural Soapmaking Handbook: Easy Recipes and Techniques for Beautiful Soaps from Herbs, Essential Oils...","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe Complete Guide to Creating Sustainable Soap from Scratch\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003cspan\u003eMake beautiful herbal soap creations at home with this essential guide.

A rich array of full-color photographs, engaging illustrations, a glossary, an index, and other great design details make this book easy to use and easy on the eyes, although chapters on parasites and rodents (and a plethora of similar invading pests) are not for the faint of heart.

Housing, breed selection, care, and feeding all require serious attention; this sort of access to specialized knowledge isn't so common these days.

Writing, a sense of place, and the desire to share experience have always been important to her journey, and play critical roles as she continues to weave her personal narrative. With the kids grown and three works of fiction published as of this writing, she and her husband decided to realize a long-held dream and made the move to a small farm in Maryland. The homesteading lifestyle has fit her like a pen to paper, as she spends the better part of every day outside, living and learning close to the rhythms of the natural world. It has taught her that life is better, healthier and happier when we bring heart and passion to the basics. Being intentional about how we feed and clothe ourselves and ultimately how we live is her day-to-day goal.
