Clutches, Cards and Coffee Sleeves.

Hello again.

I melted my computer cord last week and therefore was unable to get onto my computer!  (and no... it wasn't some crazy glue gun mishap... my cord was old and it finally gave way and sparked/smoked and melted!).  I ordered a new one and it works wonderfully.

A few little updates!

I sold some of my mason jar pincushions at the craft sale!! SO exciting :)

Also, there are still 2 more weekends of the Handmade Market.

I was busily making clutches for the handmade market last weekend with my sister-in-law.  It was so much fun!  I've never actually crafted with someone before, but it was a great time!  I'm just used to being up in my crafting corner by myself sewing up a storm!  Gavy was busy sculpting (and baking a giant cake that was taking FOREVER... but that's another story) and I was busy sewing to the early hours of the morning.

Here they are!  They haven't been sold yet.  I really wish I had taken a picture of the linings!  The one with the bow has a green lining with white polka dots (I LOVE POLKA DOTS), and the one with the swirly-rosey-button has a pretty solid coral lining.






My clutches (with Gavy's painting!)


I ordered some business cards to have at the Handmade Market, and they came in very handy as tags for my first commission!  I made 9 coffee sleeves for a friend's aunt!  They are all identical and they were made red and black (the back is black with white polka dots).  These colours were chosen because they were gifts for a card group.  I love how they turned out :) 






That's all for now :)

Happy crafting!

    1. Thanks for letting me know!
      The pictures showed up when I looked, but they loaded reaalllly slloooowwwwwllly.

      I think it's because I copied and pasted them from a FB message, instead of saving them first!

      They've been fixed now (fingers crossed!)

      Thanks for reading :)
