!

Today, a big thank you to Michelle at Cicada Studio , for featuring my soft stars in her guest blog post on Indie Fixx, what a wonderful surprise! : )

folksy

Anyone heard of Folksy? It is a new UK handmade site, based along similar lines of etsy and dawanda, where people have their own shop within the site. It is in beta mode at the moment, and you can only join if you are in the uk, but in February it is due to open up to international customers. Pop over for more information and have a look, I have added a new button in my sidebar which will take you right there. I only have a few things on there so far, but I have been lucky enough to have my soft stars appear as featured items, and my new pouch was on the front page, which was very exciting! : )

twinkle twinkle

This set of red soft stars will be appearing in my shop very soon! Despite having a few items in progress, I haven't managed to take any other pictures of them, Hmm. But some of my purple soft snowflakes appeared in this gorgeous purple treasury, which was a lovely surprise. I don't know where the week is going, I managed to squeeze in half an hour of christmas shopping today and got a few things, but I need to do a lot more! Are you all organized for christmas? : )

new!

I've been having lots of fun with my silver fabric, and have come up with this zip pouch, perfect to give anything a little bit of sparkle! This is a sneak preview as it won't be going into the shop until tomorrow. : )

FREE CARD OFFER!!!!

Because I managed to miss my 200th post and christmas time is on its way... From now until the end of Monday 24th November (2008, UK time), with any purchase from my etsy shop you will receive one of my cards (with envelope) from either of the sets shown above absolutely FREE! All you have to do is write 'circles' or 'leaves' in the message to seller so that I know which set you would prefer your card to come from, and I will add a card from that set to your parcel. You can even choose which one you would like, or I will randomly choose one for you. ***AND you get a free card with each item, so if you purchase two items you will get two cards, and if you purchase three you will get three, which equates to a free set, which is worth $8! **** Click here to visit my shop : )

the green one

I've just been reading yesterdays post and I think in my excitement it wasn't that clear, sorry! Each of my 'homes for pins' is double-sided, one side featuring one of my favourite fabrics and the other with a hand painted design. And each one comes with two of the little leaf pins in the photos. So the pictures in yesterdays post (apart from the group shot) are of either side of the same pincushion - a bit of variety into something that could get used an awful lot! So the same applies to these two pictures, they are of one pincushion, a shot of each side! (sorry to those of you that knew that, just reading it back it wasn't clear to any new readers) I'm off now to list it in my etsy shop... : )

new home...

for pins! Every time I make one of these I decide that the latest one is my favourite, which has happened again this time, except as I made two I am a bit confused. Here is the first one, which is in my shop now, it has lots of hearts already - thank you! The second one (which is green, bottom right in the top photo, will be listed tomorrow, the other two in the photo are already in my shop.) : )
