Some new bits we have been busy making

Well its been too long since we posted on here but I wanted to show you just a few of the things we have made and sold over the last few weeks

One of the things that have proved to be very popular is the Pet Plaques, these are personalised with the pets name and have hooks to hang their coat, collar and lead.


I found this item with instructions on Dream, Create and Share blog, Tammy was very kind to do a great video tutorial for these and so I thought I would have a go at making some, This one has been made using Brown paper and pages out of an old book, I then glued a pin to the back and it makes a lovely brooch.

Taking it one step further I made this and added a flower to the front, it was only in the shop a few hours before it was sold.A close up of the flower, the great thing is that all your flowers now match your paper perfectly and they can be any size you want them to be.

Another clock that I made was this one, I covered the clock face with paper from a pad I have had a while, I loved it when I bought it and have not been able to bring muself to use it until now, the paper is from Dejavue and is beautiful. This is for a Hallway as it features a Blackboard as well as hooks to hang your keys on. I have made a smaller version which is just the clock.
Karen has been busy with card orders which you can see some of on her own blog and we have all been very busy with craft club which now is run in 3 sessions to give everyone a place, the workshop list should be ready very soon so watch this space.

We have a number of craft fairs we shall be standing at during the summer the first is on May 9th at the Glenmore centre in Shepshed, more details to follw soon.

Thats it for now, I have orders waiting to be made!
