Christmas Treasures

Good morning

Looking out my window it is a beautiful day, if a little cold.  This past week I have been busy checking all my wares for the biggest Christmas fair which is coming up next weekend in Laxey – please do come if you are a local, it is always one of the best.

I have also made just a couple of Victorian tree decorations for the Manx Craft Guild tree, which will be on display on the alternative trees at Port Erin’s Magical Christmas on Saturday 6 December.

But I have had most fun with my Holly Topiary tree – I just love it and hope you do too. I’d very much like to know what you think.

Have a great week.

Christmas is still coming

Happy dry Monday

Last week was a bit of a washout for me, I had a bad cold so mostly lying on the sofa watching rubbish TV (very rubbish).

So come Thursday a major panic attack - realising I had a craft fair on Saturday so I made a few cards.  Then on Friday I made a Paisley necklace for a friend to take to a birthday party as a gift, I really enjoyed this project – let me know what you think of it.

The craft fair on Saturday for Motor Neurone was fun and well patronised so if you attended I hope you had a great time.

Jewellery Party

Good morning all

This last week has been quite frantic making and getting ready for my 1st Jewellery Party with my friend Lou because together we are Hatters (face book page coming soon).

I hope you like the new pieces and if you attended the party I really hope you had a great time because I certainly did.  I feel it was fun and therefore a success – I would love to hear your views.

Christmas is still coming

Hi Everyone

This week I have been making some more Christmas Cards and a really pretty wreath. 

I also had a great time at the MSPCA craft fair on Sunday and, if you called by, thanks for supporting the event and I hope you enjoyed the afternoon.

I am having a Jewellery Party next week, so a lot of my time and energy is going towards getting ready for that. Hopefully there will be lots of photos to post next week.

Pop Up Cards are always fun to receive

I love this wreath of feathers
