    Not sure I have the ability to be honest hun. What my mum made were beautiful, but she's not here to show me how unfortunatley :(

    Why don't you try something where you follow precise instructions to get to your goal

    Knitting, sewing crafts - my thing is cross stitch for precisely the same reasons as you; I do not have a crafty bone in my body. I find it relaxing, and someone has already done the hard arty bit :)

    Or card making maybe - you can get kits and templates where it even tells you what colour to do it


    Or rubber stamping.... You can make beautiful creations with that

    Or.. quilting - which is a sandwich of material and wadding, and sewing through the three layers either in straight lines or free style.

    There is so much, and even if you aren't arty, there are things to do...

    Load of threads on here for cheap tips too... (if you fancy cross stitch I might be able to rustle up a beginner's kit so you can have a go x)

    Can't keep away now!

    Spud: If it's basic floristry instruction you need I can possibly help you. I did a City and Guilds in Floristry.

    Thinking dream job etc I'd llove to be doing something with flowers and plants.

    tOne of the things I picked out from my mamoth reading session that I need to apply to my life with immediate effect is getting a buffer zone. At the moment finances are every week right to the wire. I remember MG saying something about breaking figures down to small amounts that become doable. My first target would be to have 84pounds(laptop lost pound sign) safety net, that's what I get paid a week.
    Please can someone remind me how it's done?

  • Claire, i was thinking about your site, and i wonder if you change some of the pics to pics of the jewellry being worn, like the bracelets and necklaces, a close up of the wrist, so that people can see how it may look when worn.
