    I know the feeling very well Hales!! Spend far too much time catching up on the previous day/night's dribble to be doing anything sensible!

    woohoo.... good ebay sales tonight.... I sold a wheelie bug (kids ride on toy) for just short of £20!!! Its two years old, well loved but in great condition and I only paid £25 for it new.... they have only been going for about £8/10 ish so I am very pleased!
    And two sales from amazon, and two from ebay business account! The last four sales are break even (ish) but I want rid of the stock so break even is better than a loss..... just need to ebay the rest of the house !
    LOL!

    toots.... wow!!! how about doing a few more sunflowers and recreating Van Gogh sunflowers but in a 3d box frame??? or even sewn on a bag, now that would be cool....

    I love the 'mums' too, they would make great brooches....

    Thank you :D The mums on there aren't completely full ones, I've got one of them on the go just now and I really like the way they sort of 'fall'. Not sure if they're too big for brooches, but I guess everyone is different so why not? I've looked but not ordered brooch pins yet, so should get that sorted. The mums make nice ponytail bits too, if you know what I mean lol, on a hair band. I love your idea about the sunflowers though, I had thought on doing a 3d frame, I've got some flower pot buttons for that very purpose. I guess I'll just have to play around with them and see what comes out of it.

    Trust that little voice in your head that says "Wouldn't it be interesting if...";
    And then do it.

    Phew! Just read today's posts, nearly caught with you all.

    Have been in hibernation a bit since last week. Major hassle in my job last week, no wonder I want to make a go of working for myself :)

    Haha nope not me, i've bought nothing on ebay since the googlies 'incident'.
    I've actually stuck some on my monitor at work and they remind me to stop procrastinating & to get on with my work so i can focus on making money in my spare time! Quite an investment really lol
