    And a good point for everyone to rember is that "non-toxic" doesn't mean "wholesome and good for you", it simply means "won't poison you as far as we know"--something I used to point out to my soldiers when they thought it was cool to break open chem lights and pour them into their beers and drink them in a dark room. Uggh!

    How cool would that be!!!!!!!!!! they are the same stuff as those £1 shop necklaces & bracelets?? yes?

    If you all like Deb at Homespun Living try Anna at Thimbleanna
    http://thimbleanna.com/blog/
    She is lovely and talented in all sorts of ways. If you click on her links you will find loads of gorgeous blog set out in categories (including mine:D ;) )
    I am so addicted to blogs, I have had to reduce my time spent on them to actually get some stuff done!

    This thread is a nightmare! Not only do I now want a sewing machine, I also want a blog. Perhaps when I've actually got on top of the housework cooking, cleaning, looking after our new(ish) baby I can start to do crafts and inspire the world with my beautiful life (and blog!!!) :rotfl:

    Please don't post any more great links!

    Thriftlady - you have my children, just in a different order!!! their shared middle name is 'stubborn'.

    I have a sewing machine, but nothing else in common with that lovely site.
    I can cook and sew, make flowers grow.
