My list of things to do were to


  1. update my wow thankyou shop (will talk about this in a mo)

  2. promote my giveaway - which has now ended i now just need to sit and decide who has won :-)

  3. Design a Vintage cone for a lady

  4. And make a chalk board plaque for an order

I am nearly there with my list and hope to get it all finished by the end of today..........!



Now a little of Wow Thank you ! - those of you that dont know a new site promoting the talents of artisans from all over the UK.


With over 1000 products currently on offer, many of which are one-off items, WowThankYou encourages the general public to look beyond the shopping centres and buy unique, home-grown, gifts instead. Promoting the work of 230 small, often home-based, businesses WowThankYou is providing an online outlet for selected artisans who usually sell only through regional craft fairs.


I am so pleased to be part of this and Tracey and Georgena have worked really hard so hope it is a success for all!! if you have not taken the time to have a browse please take the time it is fab!!

My New Recycle Range &Giveaway!!!!





I have started making a recycle range where i find items that have been discarded or forgotten about and I give them a new lease of life for example, photoframes, coat hooks, wooden boxes etc

I really enjoy doing this and have decided to open another shop on Misi and Folksy just purely for these items


Right to the giveaway............... i need a name for my new store i am wanting something to say i recycle and something funky!!!



I am asking you for ideas for a name for this new shop and the one i like the best can choose an item in my new shop








a few of the items i already have to put in this shop are funky and bright and unique






Please leave your ideas for my new shop name in the comment box below and i will choose the name of my NEW shop and winner on Sunday 14th March!!!

Doesnt time fly lol ....................... was supposed to be blogging quite regular but dont seem to be able to fit everything in!
I must admit i had been crafting like mad for the last 2 weeks as i did a handmade market stall (my first i may add!!!) on Saturday at Sheffield and wanted to have plenty of stock!
Most of the stock has returned with me - boo hoo, as the footfall wasnt great and it was a cold wet day but i was pleased with how my stall turned out was worth going for the experience here are some piccies....................
