This last week or so seems to have disappeared into a haze ... my lovely mum came to stay last week and this week my sis-in-law's mum is staying .... it has been lovely as we don't see them very much & there is nothing like shopping or watching a girlie film with your mum ... or having a hug from here when you need one! It has meant that I have only been doing the bare minimum with work though! ;S
Mum had great fun going through all the things I have made since she was last here .. and even bought some of my new compact mirrors for little extra Christmas presents! (thanks mum!)
I won't see her now until Christmas :(
It has been ages since I have written anything ... been very busy doing tax returns (left it very late this year ~ slap on wrist ... must be more organised next year!) and opening my NEW ONLINE SHOP!
In my last post I had just got a scrummy pink rose ring from Glitterysah ... well, I can't believe how this looks, but I have been shopping on her lovely site again, but this time its not for me ... honest! I have got this cute little brooch called 'Twinkle' (yep ... pink!) for my nieces birthday at the end of the month. She has suddenly (in the last couple of weeks) become really into Hello Kitty & I have also got her a Hello Kitty makeup bag, so 'Twinkle' will be a perfect addition to the present!
Glitterysah has also included these great hot pink beads & I know that my little niece will have great fun making some jewellery for herself (& maybe me if I am lucky!) with them! Thanks Glitterysah! ~ you can see all of her lovely handmade goodies at
www.glitterysah.com
Just had a thought ... its a good job my niece is too young to read this!
In getting goodies ready to list in my new on line shop, I have had a good look through my stock room (well corner really!) and found some things that I thought were listed on eBay and in the hundreds of listings that I have on eBay, managed to get missed ... so they are perfect for my new shop. I am hoping that I can reduce my eBay shop (and the fees I pay!)in favor of my 'sparkly new shop'
