    I have lost track so much that I have "stuff" in drawers also that I have bought to do projects but I can't even think what the project is now. I store them on favourites and my DH keeps asking me to empty it a little!! Men don't understand that you just can't delete craft files.

    Hi all!
    Just popped my head around to see how everyone was doing!

    On the favourites topic I too have a full favourites file I have separate folders within my favourites file. One of which is a craft file hehe. Its rapidly getting bigger as well.

    I also really need to write up a list of what I'm making and for who so at least I know where I am going with it all. And that way I won't forget any of my ideas what with the stress of house moving!

    I make myself laugh (and OH) I really do. There was me frantically raiding the charity shops for pressies to put in baskets -even got christmas cards done, all in an attempt to be ready for christmas by the end of august thus having a well earned relaxation time come autumn.............not so........I keep finding more and more 'stuff to do'.............started off with a flannel cup cake, then flannel yule log, then flannel christmas cake with holly on top, then all these wooded bits and pieces..........................lol
    If I look at any more craft sites and tell OH about any more amazing things I think he just might have me certified.................:rotfl:

    I was going to start my list today of whats for who but its so hot, heavy, sticky and headachy I can't be bothered..........please please, rains come and clear the air

    A friend recommended a site to me that is pretty reasonable, P+P free when you spend over £10 and lots of offers

    Hey Mary I totally agree with you. I'm in Lincs too and am dying for some nice heavy rain (only have a little bit) to clear the air.

    I drove my other half mad yesterday, I was going through my set of handmade paper shapes and every so often I would hold one up and go "ooooh huni isn't this one really pretty?" or "I love this one look!" It got to the point where he just grunted replies. I don't think he shares my love of pretty paper!

    You're only a few miles from me Siren so we share the same weather. Its raining now but still as sticky and hot as ever. OH doesn't know what he wants to eat and nor do I.......think it'll be scrambled eggs at about 8 o'clock at this rate.
    When I get my paper out and enthuse over it OH just sits and gives a kind of bemused smile..........expect he''s thinking 'well if it keeps the old girl happy'.............lol
