A sneaky peek of my new room and a couple more for the Pinterest Challenge

I've decided that recipes I'd pinned on Pinterest count towards the challenge, but I felt that if I did two of them, that would make it count more! So yesterday I made cheese and spring onion beer bread- dead simple, no kneading, no rising, no fuss! Here's the recipe.I also made salted caramels, taking this recipe and sprinkling sea salt crystals lightly over the top I'm not sure how I feel about salt on them yet, but once dipped in chocolate I have a feeling they will work much better. I need to cut them up, but I couldn't resist popping a circle out to taste. I'm in disbelief that they actually set! To make them exactly as I have, substitute the butter for sunflower spread and the cream for Weight Watchers extra thick double cream. It works! You will most definitely need a sugar thermometer though, there's no way around that!I've been moving into my new room in the garage. I still have a wall to paper, some skirting board to go down and some stuff to put on the wall so it feels a bit more homely but it's getting there. Please excuse the clutter, some of it is crafty destash stuff I have listed here, other bits just need allocating a home. I love having a double school desk to use as an extension table for my quilting and the red cabinets with the textured white wall, I think it works really well! Who knew I had so much ribbon that I need two more hangers putting up though?! I can't wait to get my fabric on the shelves and all visible for easy selection but I am waiting for boards to come in the post (I have been waiting over a fortnight so I am starting to get quite impatient).I got a new clock yesterday too! I will give you a proper tour when I am completely moved in, I can't guarantee at the decorating will be done by then though!PS- that quilt on the desk that you've seen a million times before on here? I'm nearly halfway through quilting it, then I'm going to bind it by bringing the backing fabric forward and I will have my very own quilt just for me!
