Welcome!

I am so excited to launch Dear Friend!

My name is Esther and thanks for stopping by to read my blog. This blog is a place to document my experiences of living in East London and trying to build community, partially through craft workshops but also through everyday life.

I will do most of the writing but I'm sure you will hear from my husband, Matt, and various other people who I know have brilliant talents and hearts to share.

I will be posting weekly on a variety of subjects including craft inspiration and tutorials, trying to live life on a budget in London, stepping out of your comfort zone and trying to impact your community. There will also be plenty of my general musings, the highs and the lows. 

This, however, is not just a space for me to talk about myself, its a space to share our lives. So if you have something you would like to share, a guest post or recommendations then I would love to hear from you! Please do send me your comments and emails, they are very welcome! All my details are on the contact page.

I really look forward to seeing what this little corner of the internet turns into, so thanks for reading and sharing.
Here's to the future!
