Hi Tryingto be old style,Sammy kaye and the Sparkly one:D

Lolalemon so so sorry to hear about your devastating news hun try and keep your chin up. Big hugs from us all x x

I have been away for half term so not had chance to post on here. Thought i'd share a few more things i have made. Most of them are actually to replenish my folksy shop as i have sold quite a few items over the last week or two but i thought it may give some of you some idea's of things to make. Most have instructions on my blog if anyone wants to make them or just give me a shout

Dizzytina, they're lovely! Did you make the picture frame yourself as well?

And, if you don't mind me going all OCD on you, you're missing an apostrophe on the 'Dad's Shed' thing...

dizzytina

Thanks nykied. Ha yes i am missing an apostrophe i hadn't noticed that so thanks:D

I bought the family frame as a blank unpainted wood frame and then painted and embellished it x x

I have seen this idea and plan to make some for a friend. She loves snowflakes so I know I will be onto a winner. Plan to cut the snowflakes on my Cricut. http://harmonyenrichment.blogspot.com/2010/09/snowflake-magnets.html We have recently completely refurbished the bathroom and had a few border tiles left over so I am using the glass mosaic from them, then putting a magnet on the back
