Roses Duo - Lavender T-Bags

Must admit it's nice getting back into the rhythm of working on small projects. I feel more alive at the moment even if I am stuck in a rut with my actual job, with my knee sorted I just feel I can just get back on track. So in between getting myself out of my boring job, because it is just that, I shall get back to making items, it's my motiviation and keeps me ticking along, also stops me from just taking a seat back and coast.

Just to remind you that if you check my previous blog post there is still time to enter my competition to win a special needlecase, so if you haven't already taken part do take part!. 

 Some silly things that made me smile yesterday got a new cartridge for a pen I've had for ages, and god it feels good to use it again, helped me to sketch a new design. I've come over a bit patriotic lately, and I've combined my love of Blightly (with all of its faults) with a pratical item. Can't wait to make it this afternoon.

COME ON ENGLAND

Both items are now listed in my Etsy store!

Roses Duo Lavender Sachet T-Bags $12.00

& Beaded Cover/Coaster $12.00 each.

Competition Time!

I don't often do competitions, but every now and then I have an urge to run one. My reason for wanting to run one was because as you know in my earlier post today (I know two posts in one day...shocking!) that I've recently made a batch of very pretty needlecases. Whilst making those nine I made another one, and what you see below is the fella in question. It has a very special button on it one that I purchased whilst I was in New York quite a few years back.

So would you like to be the owner of this little guy?

For a chance to win, leave a comment below, you have until Sunday, 13th June to do so!

I will select a winner at random on Monday. How exciting!

GOOD LUCK

Please note I won't be giving away my super sharp scissors or my fave thimble as shown in the image. As I sort of need them to make things.

Rather behind...

On the old blog updates, had to read back the last few to see what I have mentioned and what I haven't. Part from saying evidently there was no part 2 to the last blog post. Bit of an epic fail on my part. Anyho, my knee is doing fine, walking much better on it but it's still a bit stiff, and I have the joys of returning to work on Sunday, which will be a lovely end to the week....


I have been making lots, and I have also been distracted lots, the distractions;

+ Twitter

+ Tumblr. as of this morning

+ Vault 713 

What I have been making;

+ Lavender Sachet T-Bags

+ Coasters

+ Finishing up baby quilt

+ Mini Button Needlecases

Most of what I have made I haven't actually taken any photo's off I am slacking on that side of things, but I will show you something I am rather in love with, it's my own work...I know so modest.

Isn't that just the most cheerful thing you've seen? They are all being listed on my Etsy store, and are going for $4.50 each excluding p&p. There is one that isn't in this picture that I will be blogging about later on (promise!). 

Hope your enjoying the weather...well if its lousy that you are at least wrapped up warm and are dry!
