Welcome to Merry Little Makers! I’m Louise, a mama with a love of crafting and creating all sorts of things with the little ones over the years. While two of my ‘little ones’ are now quite big, I still have my youngest who has thankfully inherited the crafting bug too!

Digital Printables

One thing that I love to share are the printables that I design myself using programs such as Affinity Designer and Canva. I love making printables for little ones that help them learn and have fun at the same time! Many of these printables I originally sold on Etsy and they are now being offered here free for your personal use. If you enjoy using these pages, please send me a comment as I love receiving feedback on my work ♥

Arts & Crafts Tutorials

I’ve loved crafting from a very young age, thanks to parents who always generously supported my creativity, and I’ve enjoyed sharing that with my own children. I’ll be posting lots of crafting tutorials from our projects over the years.

I believe that the arts and fostering a creative spirit are so important for a healthy, happy life and I love seeing that creativity blossom in children. I hope that you will enjoy doing some of these projects with your own little ones, creating things you love and many happy memories together!

Art washes away from the soul the dust of everyday life.” – Pablo Picasso

Each post on this blog is completely written by a real person! For some images I use an image generator to place the craft in context to show you how it can be enjoyed. You’ll recognize these images by the children drawing ambidextrously, haha, or the text being slightly garbled! Since I’m a one-woman show, this cuts down on the amount of time I need to take to make ‘product photos’ and more time on doing the stuff I love most – making crafts and printable pages for you and your kiddos!
