Whatcha doin?.....

[Seahorse]

Come along my lovlies, everything has gone very quiet here.

Im a little perky as a project is going well, rather than bad and Ive thought to myself, hang the expense, money is there to be spent, its worthless otherwise.

Im giving thos eslide pendant things a go adn I suppose im happy as Ive just been looking at my swarovski hearts I bought last year, they are so perdy.

What is everybody else working on?Come on, dont be shy.

A friends wedding stationary! We organised the design etc last year (oh so long ago) and the invites have been made and sent out but I'm slowly slogging on with the other items....... It's got to the stage where I am getting sick of it (too many changes to mention!) but it needs to be done. I'm also working on developing more handmade wedding stationary - I will keep you all up to date with how it's going as I will need your opinions on whether it's nice, price etc.

stitch markers are used in knitting to mark your place for when you need to increase or decrease stitches or if you are doing circular knitting to mark the start of a row
i have made some lovely beaded ones with the jump rings Karen supplied for me and am going to do some more to sell on ebay hopefully

I am trying to sort out my b****y website still, everytime I get one problem ironed out I have another one. My homepage has just died on me.

Its driving me round the bend, I will be developing a nervous twitch before and will have to be carted off in a straight jacket.

No rest for the wicked.

Im learning the art of chinese knotting and making some wicked necklaces at the moment (my mother bought me a book about it so she got the first necklace for mothers day and loved it!)

But talk about getting yourself in knots......... :lol:

I am swimming against the current at the mo terying really hard to keep my head afloat!

I really should not moan about the amount of work that has come my way.... but..... sometimes I feel like I am juggling too many balls!

I've been very fortunate to find a lucrative consignment partner who is wonderful at getting orders. She has also got me into the wedding jewellery and tiara markets and I have several on the go.

I have the usual stalls at the producers markets and craft fairs and two online bead and finding stores.

I also have a family with three children all of whom need support educationally. My fourteen year old has dyslexia and needs a lot of writing support. My twelve year old is on the extended learning programme for gifted children and gets a ton of homework and then my little girl is just learning to read so needs a lot of help.

This weekend has just been hectic. I guess though, I am incredibly fortunate to be in this privalidged position of having a thriving craft realted business.

Id love to make tiaras but I need to get better at soldering first.
