Our Blog: The Third Year

Assalamu Alaikum everyone!

Subhana'Allah! It's hard to believe this day has arrived, and that we have posted every single Friday... for three whole years!! Each year we have done a post similar to this one, talking about the year we've completed and sharing our experiences and lessons learnt. So if you would like to see them here are the First and Second years. That is what this last post will be on, insha'Allah.

It is sad to say that this is our last post, for the foreseeable future, but who knows, we may start again someday. We will also list some of our favourite posts insha'Allah, like we've done every year, in case you're interested and would like to take a look.

Alhamdulillah, at least for the first 6 months of this year, we were more organised than the previous years, masha'Allah! We had most of the posts written up and scheduled before Friday, which was a nice achievement, alhamdulillah. We found it harder to do so in the later months and have decided that now is a good time to end our blogging journey. It has been an interesting and enjoyable experience. We hope that our blog continues to bring joy and inspiration to anyone who stumbles across it, insha'Allah! You can of course continue to follow us on Instagram @craftymuslimahs if you would like.

Bakes and Drinks

This year we did more drinks than before, so that was fun to share, and baking is something we do so often (Maryam mostly!). Here are some of our favourites:

 Green Smoothie

Strawberry and Chocolate Milkshake

Sticky Date Loaf

Homemade Wholemeal Bread 

Mini Gingerbread Loaves

Vegan Fudge

Crafts

Here are some of the crafts we enjoyed showing:

Crochet

Book Week Characters

Journal Pages

Our Mum's Journal

DIY's

It's always fun to do a DIY for you all and show you step-by-step how we craft. Here are a few of the ones we shared this year:

Paper Fish Craft

Eid Al-Adha Card Décor

Handmade Envelope Craft

Original Story

It was so exciting (especially for Zainab!) to share an original story for the first time, masha'Allah!

 Masha'Allah, we have also really enjoyed sharing our 2019 Summer Holiday, Maryam's Gardening posts, Sumayyah's School Projects, some Photography, Book Recommendations and a lot more! Subhana'Allah.  

Alhamdulillah it has been a fun challenge to blog consistently, and we've enjoyed it very much. We haven't been as organised as we had hoped to be this year, because a lot has been going on in our lives and in the world in general. Life is full of hard times, but the important thing is to do good with the time we have been blessed with, insha'Allah.

We hope you have enjoyed this post and all the posts we have done. If you are new here, you are of course most welcome and we hope you find inspiration from our blog! Insha'Allah, you are all well and healthy and having a great day. Now, let us not say 'farewell' but rather 'until next time, insha'Allah!'

That's all from us.


Love and Wasalaam,


Hanifah, Maryam, Zainab and Sumayyah
