Kelly Dennett Reporter from Sunday Star Times

The Sunday Star-Times is investigating the rising number of consents made for home builds.

Perhaps you're a first-time home owner who has opted to build, rather than buy pre-existing, or maybe you're seasoned home owners who have taken the first step to create your own dream home.

Perhaps you're a first-time home owner who has opted to build, rather than buy pre-existing, or maybe you're seasoned home owners who have taken the first step to create your own dream home.

We'd love to hear from you about the challenges involved in building, and why you've opted to take that route. Any interviewees would need to be willing to be identified and photographed in a news story.

We'd love to hear what you do within your local community to stay fit & healthy!!

Whether your goal is to increase your fitness, reduce your stress levels, eat healthier, or simply be more mindful, there’s no better time than now to take steps to improve your well-being.

The best way of course to stay on track is to get others involved!

From starting a walking group with neighbours to trying out new recipes with whānau or friends – it’s always more fun to do things together.

Share your tips, recipes, photos and experiences with us using the following hashtag: #NSNZhealthynewyear

Knit your Art Deco outfit

The more I got into it, the more I needed the clothes but could not afford to buy any. Lucky for me, knitting really took off in the 1930s and there are thousands of free 1930s patterns online. Some of my favourite sites are:

freevintageknitting.com they don't have the dates on but if you google the name of the pattern book, you might find the date. Anything from a book called 'Minerva Styles The Future' is 1936

subversivefemme.com... an Australian site

vintageknittingpatternarchive.com...

thevintagepatternfiles.blogspot.com...

vintagepurls.co.nz... a New Zealand site

There are many more. If the temperatures we have lately are anything to go by, we just might be needing cardigans or boleros this year. We are lucky in that we have quite a few wool shops in the Bay and if you don't have any fine needles in your stash, the Op Shops have loads.
