The book Ive got was bought for me from the lady running the charity I work for. She thought it might give me some inspiration

There are, however a lot of free ideas on Pinterest

The wine racks I made sell for £15 at her car booty/posh farmers markets type places :eek: TBH I wouldn't pay that for them. And a sanded down piece of pallet with a tea light sized hole sold for £3.99 :eek:

The moral of that story is sell to people with more money than sense

There's plenty of muggles out there :T:T

Sorry to hear your hands are so bad Tinyshoes. I don't have arthritis, but I do have problems with my hands as I have hypermobility. My fingers "lock" sometimes and other times I just don't grip well.

Last week I couldn't get my trolley token thing out of the trolley at A's.
I was really struggling and thought the trolley was faulty. A woman waiting to park her trolley offered to help and she got the token out first time. It made me feel really old.

Thanks mutley. It flares up now and again have suffered since my early 30s so used to it now. Funny how heat seems to make it worse and we have had a hot summer.

I struggle to grip things like you always struggle with getting that bloomin coin out the trolley. And I fumble with getting coins out of my purse too like an old woman.

At it's worse I have chucked drinks over myself as lost the grip but that hasn't happened for quite a few years now, consultant did say it could settle down in my middle age. :eek:

It's horrible when things lock though isn't it, often happens to me while I am washing my hair for some reason. My left thumb seems worse at doing it.

If I had your pallets I would make a nice shed for my wheelie bins.
Actually saw loads of pallets put out to take when I left dds on friday.
Think I would need atleat 3 car fulls though.

On superscrimpers they got Tina Malone to make over her garden with pallets. Made some lovely garden furniture with them.

I feel for you TS, one of my bf's suffers with psoriatic arthritis (has done since her early 30's) it's a nightmare for her

Oh gawd I do that too. It's so frustrating.

Such a horrible feeling when things lock. My feet do it sometimes and it is so painful and just feels so wrong.

Sorry to hear you have suffered so long. I really do hope it does settle down or improve for you. x
