    Well I went to the craft fair and it was worse than I thought! I didn't sell a single thing :( On the plus side I wasn't charged for a stall as it was so bad :)

    Oh no :(

    Today I made an apron for when I help out on a stall, and a drawstring bag with the leftovers

    Tomorrow I will need to buy some white thread as I have run out.
  • This morning ih made a nice new carrier bag holder to replace the tatty old one, all from things I already had :)

    Loving the latest makes :)


    I still haven't made anything since my last update but I have sold a few more bits on facebook. In total 30 sheets of 3d topper stickers and 5 craft books are awaiting collection so that will add a further 35 to my destashed total when they are collected.Not being collected until Thursday and Saturday though so wont count them until then :)


    My plan for today is to try and list a few more bits on Facebook, have a quick tidy of my craft room (as its a tip again!) and then hopefully make something quick and easy.


    Hope you all manage a crafty day :)


    Happy stash busting :)

    Poor husband came off his bike on the tram tracks and ripped his cycling trousers and jacket. I've repaired them using pieces of stretchy stuff from my stash, so does that count as 2 more makes?

    Yep! Poor hubby though!

    Today I made seven fleece drawstring bags for a friend who asked for them, made a fleece scarf with pockets and also a rather iffy pair of fleece fingerless mitten things. :)
