wow, has it really been that long.

I knew i had neglected my blog but hadn't realised for how long! I've not really been doing much craft wise it's a bit hard, with nothing selling, to create more stuff to just sit there. I have been making some christmas cards my mum asked me to make and i am also knitting a scarf for my son and crochet a blanket for my daughter. So i'm keeping busy and trying to promote but i'm not getting anywhere fast :-(. I even listed some things on ebay (about 10) for 99p starting bid just to try and create more space but only 1 sold. It's not looking good readers :-(.

Sorry to be so glum lol.

This is one of the cards i have made for halloween, i also made a load of jewellery with halloween theme, you can find them at www.lej-jewellery.co.uk

Well the kids are back in school monday so i may be able to get some creating done :-).

neglect

Sorry i haven't blogged for what feels like a life time but i rarely get a minute to myself. In between flitting from home to the caravan every couple of days and trying to make new stock and list it aswell as keeping the kids entertained. it's hard work!

Anyhow this is my first mens necklace i have made, i haven't listed it on my website as i'd have to make a new page and i just don't have the time to do it at the moment. Once the kids are back in school i'll sort it out.

I have some good news to i was laft a comment on my facebook page from a lady who is the editor of a north wales magazine which tells you whats on in the area and she loves my new halloween range and wants to put some pictures in the magazine, how great is that! i'm over the moon.

boys jewellery?

I think it is pretty hard to design boys jewellery, the last boys necklace i made was bought for a girl??? I made this elasticated bracelet a few days ago it was initially for halloween but i have listed it under boys jewellery on my website. I have also made the matching necklace but i haven't got round to listing that yet.

I have made a girl one using clear crystals instead of black beads which has turned out ok. I've also been making other halloween jewellery and i've made one card so far so pop along to my website for a nosy.

halloween

I'm not sure if it is to early for halloween items to be listed but i made this charm bracelet a few days ago. I'm planning on making a few more items for both girls and boys. I don't want to make too many as i'm not sure weather they'll sell or not yet but i'm going to give it ago. I've also stamped some images with halloween stamps and i just need to make them up into cards and i'll list them on my website. The bracelet is already listed under a bit of fun.

hello kitty

This is one of my latest cards, i bought a hello kitty die cutter for my sizzix machine and this is my first kitty. I have since made a christmas one but i'm down in my caravan now so won't have a chance to make anymore for a few days. I'm not sure how long i'm staying for yet i've been here since thursday with hubby and the kids but hubby is back in work tomorrow and has to go to scotland for a few days so i think i'm going to stay till wednesday. I've got a craft fair on sunday but i don't think i'm going to be making more stuff as i have wayyyy to much already and i didn't sell much last time i was there, about 7 pieces i think.

new jewellery piece

Here is a picture of one of the pieces that i made with some of my 'stock' i got from the bead fair i went to on sunday. I love the lampwork bead and think the dark red really shows it off.

I also had a play about with my new hello kitty die cutter yesterday and made 1 birthday card and another kitty to make a christmas card. I'm expecting some more card making bits in the post today as i noticed lili of the valley were having a sale and raided there site lol. I also ordered some halloween stamps from a different site so hopefully they'll come today too.
