How is everyone this morning? cold?! yep, me too! Well I promised you an update so an update we shall have.
As of Sunday 30th October I once again became unemployed, *sigh* and with no work lined up it seemed like it was going to be a dull few weeks of filling out job applications and being the personal dogsbody to my family.... but wait, here's an idea...... why not take a craft stand at the local craft and vintage fair on the 19th November and sell cards! hurrah! great idea..... except I have no cards to sell and that's only 3 weeks off and we have the church's christmas bizzare the weekend before and ooooh! eeek! ummm.....
Well after taking a deep breath and thinking it through logically I realised I could do it if I got my act together and limited what I was making and specialised...... oh and then if I took another table on the 10th December too I could do one which is more crafty than cardy! insane? oh yes!
But insane or not, the deposit for the table has been paid and I am busy making a range of white on white cards and book cards, beaded items - pins, bracelets and hair slides and if I can master the technique, altered candles.
Am I stressed? yes! is it going to be worth it? only time can tell......
But today is my nan's 80th birthday and sadly she's still in hospital 15 weeks on from her stroke and honestly, she's only just still with us so i'm spending a lot of time visiting her with my parents and brothers. It's now in God's hands to her future.
And tonight is the start of the church bizzare and I did promise you something crafty to see, so here you have it - Penguin Skittles!
That's it for now, I'll try and pop back on Sunday with some photo's of the bizzare and other things we made but bare with me, it's a mad time at the moment! I am around, just not online much!
Take care and happy crafting
Oh dear, I do hope that you can find a job soon {{{{{hugs}}}}}
