Whooppee


So excited, I have just had my first online sale of my angels. Someone on Folksy did me a big favour and would not accept payment so I sent her one of the little angels (on the left) She liked her so much she has ordered a set in her own colour choice.
Best of all I have the beads to hand so can make them tomorrow and post them off quick sharp
Who says Friday 13th is a bad day??

I have embarrased myself!


I have just done something I have NEVER done before. I have done a mail run to everyone in my email address book!
I am still blushing. But, people do it to me and I don't mind so here it is. (she says as way of explanation!)
We make Christmas decorations and they are dipped into floor polish. (another post coming up I fear!) Anyway, the most recent I just popped onto a bottle to dry. I then received an order of gift tags from Misi and this idea was born! So, I have sent this link to everyone in the address book.... I am now going to change my email address!

Teenage Secrets


This is my favourite holiday buy. We were on holiday in St Ives a long time ago when children were teenagers and an old chap (probably the age we are now!) was selling these, he had dozens. So I bought this, much to my husbands despair. It was only a few shillings and is a match box with the striking paper on the base. A few Christmas's ago I was looking for matches for the candles and remembered this. Only to find that half of the matches were missing. My son calmly told me that he and his sister would use them for their 'secret cigarettes' when I was at work.....and to think at the time you imagine you know your children ...NOT
But, the point of this post is to tell you about my latest make. On sale on Folksy and Misi £14 pluss p&p
