All over and done with

Well, its all over now..............I was so worried about attending this fair that I couldn't stop shaking so please excuse the photo..it looks like i have been on the lash!


Clare ( aka Littlemisscrossstitch) and I had a great time meeting lots a great crafty folks. It was a little quite, I think mainly due the lovely weather outside and the lure of of the bands and vegeburgers in the garden. That said, the afternoon brought an influx of people.

I didn't sell many flowers this time, but my new design necklaces( which ill post about soon) and bangles went down really well. I will have to get my thinking cap on and see what other uses I can come up with for the pretties!

We are really hoping to attend the Autumn fair on the 6th of October, which promises to be even more fabulous!

Some new bits

I am not the sort of person who likes to stay the same for too long, and as such, I am always on the look out for ways to develop and progress. So that said, here is a new slant on some old stuff. Just in time for clutter city!

CraftFEST...


Sorry for the radio silence guys, I have been busy planning and scheming and such!

This week, I am taking part in something called CraftFEST. It is rather like the progeny of a craft fayre and Folksy. It is a multi national, seen by many kinda thing and being a self promotion kind of gig - I have spent most of my laptop time twittering and facebooking to tell everyone about it!

So..while you're here, why not pop along and have a nosey at all our lovely stalls.. :)

One Small Step....

I'm sorry for the blog silence. I've been a bit busy of late..   I am now officially self employed, have registered with the big bad tax man and am even the proud owner of a "business" account.  I never intended to own a "business" it just kind of snowballed....




So, from now on, I am going to have to try and actually make some money. Of course, I don't intend to set up a printing press ( although how popular would I be??), but I need to reduce costs and get faster at what I do.   I just hope that something that I love, doesn't turn into a mill stone around my neck. You see, that is the problem when a "hobby" becomes a "business"

So, how am I going to do that then? What I need is a plan...


In the mean time, my next big thing is CRAFTfest....
I have been spending some time making my stall look nice and full....you can see it here

CRAFTfest runs from the 9th to the 16th June and you can find out all about it by clicking HERE

Oh, and on Monday, myself and Little Miss Cross Stitch find out if we have been accepted for the illustrious Clutter City ( which you can find out about HERE). Fortunately, I will be at the Fairy Fayre in Holt with my dear family, so will be far to busy to keep checking my emails ( ahem!)

And so, I am off to enjoy the rest of the sunshine, as for the rest of our Jubelisious Jubilee holiday they predict rain :(
