my nephew the director

A little movie directed by nephew (aged 8). It's his first.


A Steven Spielberg of the furture?

A well earned break

Life was very hectic for a little while so I have spent some down time lately, catching up on important things like sleep. I have been making some fun purchases.

I purchased two of these fab little ornaments from Petite House. I bought the cupcake and the one on the far left.

I got one sent to my mum as a surprise

I have been after a wristlet now for many weeks from Made by Hank. When I say things like this people often exclaim "why would you buy a bag made by another". My answer is simple I appreciate others work and I also want something different.

Is it any different than a chef eating at someone else's restaurant? Things are always nicer when made by someone else. Anyway I have been after a specific wristlet but I kept missing it, I even had my poor OH checking many times a day but we always just missed it. We even put an RSS feed up to get updates. I had all but given up :( When magically and by complete accident I was online on Christmas day producing Christmas Quizzes for the dinner table, when I spotted the updated RSS feed. It said it was in stock but I could hardly believe it, I went to Made by Hank and there it was. So now all I have to do is patiently wait ..... for it to arrive.

Fab Christmas Idea

I just love this tree by Open Door Studio which was featured on the Etsy Storque

An idea for Christmas next year maybe.

Merry Christmas

Hope you all have a great day.

St George's Christmas Craft Fair

I will be attending St George's Christmas Craft Fair in Belfast this year again. Last year it was our first ever craft fair, so we are looking forward to going back.

It is on

Saturday 5 December: 9am - 5pm

Sunday 6 December: 10am - 5pm

If you are in the local area stop by and have a chat.

***Update - Having just looked at photo's from last year it has suddenly occurred to me I didn't have much stock and this year I have tonnes.****

Disappearance

While my disappearance should have been down to sewing my fingers to the bone for my next craft fair, but it has been down to the fact that life is even busier than normal. I finally got a weekend of last week to catch up on much needed sleep.

I have been sewing like mad this week, for Saturday and Sunday. I do I have a decent amount of stock, I'm just at this stage making bags I know are good sellers.
