A bit of brightness on a dull Tuesday afternoon

Zzzz... what a dull afternoon, it is making me sleepy and tempting me to just go to bed and curl up with a hot water bottle. It's cold, cloudy and windy. I'm not keen on days like this, I don't mind the cold (well not too much) or the wind but the cloud is so miserable. I much prefer the frosty, yet sunny, days. Still, the Spring signs are showing, in my greenhouse I have pots full of sweet peas and edible peas sprouting and the red onions I planted last month are starting to grow.

There is one thing I love about Winter and that is Christmas. I don't really like that it is advertised so early ( I think to much of a good thing ruins it) but I when I sat down to make the Crafty Folk Featured Seller treasury I was inspired to make a Christmas themed one. Plus it has brightened a dull day seeing all those sparkly things!

This week's featured seller is GreenStreetMosaics

Bonfire night

Happy Bonfire night! I am sat here listening to the fireworks, I had a look to see where they were coming from but I couldn't see them. Never mind though, it means I can stay warm watching Emmerdale and writing my blog :) I normally make an effort for bonfire night, perhaps buy a few fireworks or go to a display but this year I haven't gotten round to doing anything, I do have a single sparkler that was left over from last year, I might have to light that. I know how to have a good time don't I !?

It's Handmade Monday and a chance to tell you all what I have been up to crafty wise. Well, I have had 3 online sales and 3 offline sales since I last blogged for Handmade Monday. It gave me a much needed boost and made me think that I should keep plodding on! There are now 35 members of the The Promotion Club but there doesn't seem to be much activity. I have threads for treasury games and facebook shares but they don't seem to be getting much attention, I'm not really sure where I am going wrong. I have mentioned it a few times on my Facebook Page but still not much activity. Still, it hasn't been long and I need to be patient!

I have listed a few new things and had a few renews, all the photos are links to my shop :)




Have a great Monday!
