Mooloo's New Home, New Year and New Start part 3

Looks like I will be designing/adapting a few household favourites and trying to improve on them then!.
From the walking stick bags, to the tissue covers and peg bags!.

I have come up with an idea for the tissue covers, and will try it later today if I can manage it.
Sciatica is really bad today.

In my experience it doesn't save any time at the post office as the post master still has to input the details of each parcel onto his machine to produce a barcode sticker for the parcel and proof of posting for yourself. The only advantage is not having to find cash to pay postage, it can come from Paypal funds.

I didn't actually say it saved time at the Post Office - my suggestion was more to do with the convenience of the printed labels and the fact that payment does not need to be made by cash / card as it is taken directly from the funds paid by the buyer, which at times can be a godsend.

If you did make peg bags and tissue bags, I would definitiely buy some off you. My husband was saying only the other day that we need a peg bag and my two oldest daughters take little packets of tissues to school with them, but the plastic bag tends to get messed up very quickly. One question, would you be able to post to France please? I would be happy to pay the extra postage.

I look forward to seeing your latest creations, hopefully the sciatica won't be too bad today.

Sure, I can post to you in France. My sster lives in France, and my brother and his partner have a place they are doing up out there.
But I have never been - yet - maybe one day.!

You have lost me there?

Decided to risk the sciatica and go and see my Mum, perhap get to sit out in thier garden and let the psoriosis see the sun!
Then I will come back refreshed and start some sewing! I have a little saddle bag pattern to make that I found while searching for the tissue cover ideas.
I need to get some interfacing and some wadding sorted out. May be searching on the internet for that later on. Cannot remember where I got the last lot from.

Thanks everyone for the ideas, and the vote of confidence. Dispite the usual pain I am in, I am feeling so much better now I have a focus.

Oh the Cath Kidston emails. Yes of course.
Silly me I was miles away, and had moved on from there! Derrrrr!

I am back from my Mum and Dad's.
Had a lovely sit in the sunshine, lunch in the garden, and my eldest, biggest of Mooloo's came over. (She never comes on here anymore?).
We then went for a mooch around Towcester charity shops, and a gift shop.
She had some good news while we were out. Direct Line have decided to relook at her claim after her complaints etc, and have decided that they will now make a pay out! I dont know how much, but that will be good news, as she can then pay her grandad back, and maybe me a bit too. Although she has been helping me paying my Homebase stuff, so has been paying me back that way.:D

Mooloo I do envy you. I wish I could learn to organise my thoughts and feelings enough to write them down. Most of the time I don't know how I feel about something until it is too late and then it has all got on top of me. Maybe I should have a go?
