A trio of tiny exciting things.
(Right this post should have three pics and as I am a bit useless at the whole techno thing I have no idea what order they'll end up in, but you're clever peps and I'm sure you'll figure it out!) Three things have happened this week which have kicked my lazy arse back into posting action.
1; My swap package arrived from Sara . She has made me things for my kitchen which are so personalised and it makes me feel very special. The cup of tea is particularly apt as tea is my constant companion and everyone round here knows that 'I just need to drink my tea' is code for 'sod off!'. There was other treasure with my swap; a smoothie book, some tiny cake cases and a flower cutter but I have children and have to role-model the whole sharing thing!
2; Three members of the family received trousers made by gran. There will be more pics to follow. Here (somewhere!) is Will in his They are made from a dress Mum got at the Jumbley. They are ace and he carries cool clothes off so well. Here he is getting ready to go to Ella G's party where there was an outdoor chocolate fountain. It was very windy and very funny watching the kids getting splattered with high velocity Dairy Milk! (keep watching for pics of Anna in more bloomers and Simon in THE TROUSERS!!!!!)
3; I made my first Folksy sale. A lovely lady bought a set of notelets and I am so chuffed! Didn't realise that apart from listing fees and commission from sites (although not during the trial period) Paypal also take their cut! Still a lovely way to sell and I'll definitely list some more.

Gran is wonderful. Will's trollies are brill! The curtains he's standing next to could be a lovely match for my new lamp shades (perhaps the griffin was right?).
Glad you're selling stuff on Folksy, you know I think you're a fab crafter and even if paypal is being cheeky at least you are selling stuff. A ceramicist friend of mine told me it's not that they take a cut it's how much that counts. So long as you get most of it, that's what matters.
Daisie, every so often, usually just after a blue or blue-ish moon I am right. Every other time it's a wild guess!!
So glad you like the swap package , it was fun to make and thank you again for mine !!

Got a little something for you on my blog!
