Coasters galore :P

Hi guys!

Nearer to Christmas I am hoping to get to sell some of my crafty items so I have been starting to prepare my stock, lol :P I thought I would start with a few crocheted crisp packet coasters as they are fun to make and I think people would think they were quite fun :0) hehehe, I say some, I have cut out 25 here are some of them:

It is good to finally put a use to some of the wrappers I have stashed for ages! Some of the wrappers (like the Doritos one) are ones I collected whilst I was in Cyprus last year, I love collecting wrappers from different places with all the different languages on them and stuff :)

I'm off now to finish some more off, then I can plan my next bit of 'stock' to get making :-)

See you all soon,

Bye XXX

Another tiny turtle... and several christmas puds!...

Hi!

 Squirt says hi too! xD

Ever since I made the first little turtle from a pattern on crochetville for my friend at Christmas, a few people have asked my to make one for them too, such as my friends cousin. Recently another person asked me to make them a tiny turtle too. This time I made the turtle from a different pattern that came in Let's Get Crafting magazine. I'm very pleased with how he came out:

The person who received him loved him and named him Squirt after the cute little turtle in Finding Nemo :3

And guess what, I've had another request already! I think I might even try making my own pattern this time...

Another thing I finished recently was the seven Christmas puddings decorations that I posted about being asked to make after Christmas. These are my own pattern and are the first things I have made and actually sold! :D

I wrapped them nicely as I think presentation is very important :0) Its always nice to get something packaged nicely it makes things that extra bit special.

I even added one of the business cards/labels I made :)

Hopefully ill be able to set up my own Etsy/folksy shop one day. That would be really fun, ah well maybe soon!

Au revoir! xxx

One of many

Hello!

I hope everyones ok :) Can you remember in a post before Christmas I talked about one of my teachers liking my knitting/crocheted gifts for my friends so I made her a Christmas pudding? Well she caught up with when I got back to school and wanted me to make her some little christmas pudidng hanging decorations.......... So I got to work and managed to design a pattern for these little guys:

I showed her it and she loved it, She asked my for 7 (!) and said she was willing to pay. I have decided That they are £1 each :) Im sooo excited as this is the first bit of knitting I have sold! And she is going to take them to Italy next year to put on her family tree!!!
