Yesterday, somewhat inexplicably, I got quite excited about the upcoming Royal Wedding. It lasted for about 20 minutes before I got back to myself again but in that time I managed to make a couple of themed pieces for the shop

Spring Rainbows

All this sunshine has got me craving spring colours and I've had a bit of a crafting spree; this is my latest batch of simple, t shirt friendly, summer necklaces. These will be going into the shop during the next week.

Days Off, Stuff Done

Easter holidays have started. All this sunshine and free time has got me feeling rather summery. First thing this morning I put together some colourful new things for the shop, of which this a small selection. I so much want to keep the feather necklace but I've been good and put it up for sale. The blasted camera doesn't really do the colours justice but this is a bright and cheery lot.

Results

Here are the results of my pom-pom making. The colours remind me of a Pierrot hot water bottle cover I used to own. The final picture is a thread of pom-pom bunting that will be going into the shop this weekend.

Other goodies coming soon.

pom-poms

Tonight for fun I think I'll make some more pom-pom necklaces like the rather radioactive looking one in the picture. Stupid high contrast photo!

This one is in the shop right now.

HANDIWORK

Last summer I got my hands on some scraps of leather that have been sitting in my basket ever since. At last I've started putting them to use - these will be heading into the shop really soon.
