If you like purple.

Haven't blogged for ages, but thought it might be an idea to start again. I have decided to let my Folksy shop fizzle out and am putting my efforts into my Etsy shop and am pleased to announce my new website. So what am I doing to fill these shops? I have been busy, but unfortunately not creating stuff, but indeed setting up website and filling in tax return. However I have managed to make a pretty necklace today, particularly if you like purple!

Here are the raw materials and some of my handmade felt beads.

And here is what I made of it

Hope you like it, it's for sale in my Etsy shop.  I have just bought a pile of seed beads too and have plans for some really gorgeous orange and also limegreen jewellery.  So keep popping in and having a look as new things are being listed all the time.  And don't forget, if you like Octopusses there is always Squids In which has now got a new home on my website too, so if you're in need of some funky cephalopod cards that's your port of call

Long time no blog!

I haven't been blogging for a while as I have been busy making stuff for various ventures. However I thought I should just write a little blog post and just let you all know what I was up to. I have been setting up my website. You can now find me here. I chose this webside provider because they said it was really easy to do.... Well of course me being me I couldn't make heads nor tails of it and got quite frustrated by it. But help was not far away and my daughter helped me to sort it out in short order.  I have also started a shop on ASOS  (PS my daughter is also the gorgeous model in my ASOS shop!) and have been happily promoting Shhim.  So all in all a busy time. I hope that it will bring some benefits in the form of sales as they have been a bit thin on the ground recently. Anyhow here are a few goodies I have made recently

And a few  nice shots  of my furry companions too, who keep me on my toes as they have a crazy obsession with the wool I use for felting. I managed to keep my stuff out of their way but they are very cunning.....
