Morning all .


also have an order for 3 crochet flowers only 75p but it all helps

hope you all have a good day.

Just wondered if you can crochet anything other than flowers ? I was thinking maybe a teacup or top hat with an Alice in Wonderland theme ? (I'm slightly obsessed with this !!) I had a quick look on etsy yesterday and there were some lovely bits.

Hope everyone is ok. Going to have a major de-clutter today and get washing, ironing so I can list dd's old clothes on ebay

Paulabear, I love what you did with the cd rack! I can't recall what the base of it looks like (and I'm way to lazy to try to find the piccy again!!) but I think it would make a fabulous magazine/newspaper rack, inkeeping with the decoupage!

I've not long hauled myself out of bed :eek: so I guess I'd better get on with it! Anyone had any thoughts on my question about investing in a couple of samples of crochet goodies from eBay to see if my work is up to scratch? Thanks!

FINALLY FINALLY FINALLY ... sorry don't mean to shout lol but excited!! ... have reached the $500 mark. Okay, I know I could take it down to $300 again tomorrow with more re-investing, but it has been my barrier so far, as I get close enough and then move in the wrong direction lol ... so am :T:beer::j:D

Now, haven't been on here as much lately due to having gone back to work as I have already mentioned, but have been looking at fairs/ markets etc and noticed if you google "fete recipes" or similar you get a lot of really great looking recipes. Have been making a list of things I could maybe try if I went to the right places.

In fact my ideas list is growing at an alarming rate ... now need to put it all into practise :eek::rotfl:

For whoever was thinking of setting up a toy shop/ stall.
I have been thinking about this. I would research your more affluent neighbouring areas to see what is available.
There is a wooden toy shop and dolls house shop in Morecambe (which is a bit downtrodden right now although getting better all the time). People from nearby towns and villages go there as there is not really anything like it round about.
It is a real treasure trove of a shop and always interesting little bits for kids to spend pocket money on as well as the more expensive larger items.
They also have a large range of dolls house stuff - the proper scaled stuff and lighting etc and people travel from quite a way a way to visit it.
Before that shop started I used to travel to one about 40 mins drive away.
I do use internet for stuff too but that tends to be more well known sites. But having a local shop is great cos saves on postal charges and you can have a good old browse.
So if not much exists in neighbouring areas it might well be a go-er.

Well I done one MS last night (freeish dinner) and I have 2 more tomorrow (free lunch :j) Not brilliant fee's but hey it will all mount up. In all fairness I have made a fair whack from MS'ing in the past but I gave it up for a while. Must get back into the swing of things!

just a quick question please ...

do you think it's too early for me to list summer clothes on ebay ?

I'm just sorting out dd's clothes and I have loads to list but I can't decide if it's too soon.

Any thoughts ?
