No Craft Spending in 2020 - I will bust my stash this year!!!

craftingmad

I was working really hard yesterday but didn't have anything to add to my totals as my printer decided to go wrong so I couldn't print any stickers or prints that I have waiting to go out for orders
I've had my head in it all day and hopefully I may have solved it so I shall see later -fingers crossed it still works as I seem to getting through printers faster than hot dinners at the moment :(:(

I am declaring three makes today though as my son and I have been making things from hama beads which was really relaxing and kept him amused for a couple of hours (he's starting to get very bored with his broken foot as he cannot skateboard, ride his bike or go outside while its wet) so I'm struggling to find things for him to. Any recommendations gratefully received :D:D

My total now stands at 107/2020 which is ok but I need to get a move on to hopefully reach my target this year. MY hubby's 50th birthday is coming up soon though and I'm hoping to give him 50 gifts so fingers crossed I will be able to bust a lot of stash making a few bits for him - again any ideas would be gratefully received pretty please :D:D

Thanks craftingmad, but I click the quote button but nothing happens, very frustrating!!

I know I said I'd get the sewing machine out but I've had a lazy day on the sofa catching up on TV programmes, so I've decorated and sewn up 3 more sensory mats instead! Still counts towards my total though!

Presently fighting with the overlocker (it's winning!).

Good thing the spare room is full of stuff from the bedroom so I can't get at the lump-hammer.

I was lacking inspiration today but as the kids didn't want to know me (too busy playing on games consoles and watching Netflix) :o:o I decided to see if I could find a papercraft challenge to inspire me and it worked. :j:j:j

I've made 6 cards for my card box so far today and hope to make a couple more before the night is out. :D:D

My total now stands at 113/2020 :T:T:T

Total now stands at 117/2020 :T:T:T

No makes to declare but have thrown a bag of rubbish from stash into dustbin and gifted 15 balls of wool to a group that knits for charity. My cupboards will soon be bare and then what will i do.
Total upto 61/150, may need to aim for a higher number.
Hope you all have a good weekend and made loads of stuff.xx

No makes this last week. Between hospital appointments for my daughter I have been busy decluttering and spring cleaning.


We are planning on doing a car boot sale this next summer so all the decluttering is going in boxes in the shed and loft. Got about 100 books, and 2 boxes of stuff so far, some of which is craft stuff.


Have found some more half done craft projects. Have all of them in a box now, and the idea is that I go to that box first when I want to craft, but don't need to make something specific.

I will have some stuff to add to my make list this week.
