Wristeez

Good Evening my Poppets, 'tis my bed time and I am sitting at my computer trying to keep up with orders... The wristeez are selling like hot cakes - and my friend has suggested chocolate cake when I go to drop her Wristeez to her... I am unable to sleep at the mere THOUGHT of homemade chocolate cake, so I am trying to get them made ASAP in order to recieve some Tantalisingly Delightful Chocolatiness in cake form.
I did promise some behind the scenes juice - so here's a little something for you, my dear poppets...

'Tis just the tip of the iceberg my friends, just the tip.

 

I am usually drowning under a colourful tidal wave of yarns and all things glitzy, so this is me being organised. And just a thought, 'tis a desk, but my work shop at the same time - now that's what I call versatile AND economical - no need to build a studio in my shed and hide away for hours each day - just TURN YOUR WHOLE HOUSE INTO one huge, CHAOTIC KNOT and drive everyone crazy! :o)

I must say, my feline friends do become mesmorised by yarn, and I have to tell them off each time they approach with HUGE, fixated pupils. I yell at them how naughty they are and send them off with a BIG squeeze and a fat kiss... (My kids will be such confused individuals if I continue to discipline in this way... Let's just hope they aren't as adorable as these fat, little, furry friends of mine). I guess I should include a shout out to them, 'Love you Freckles and Nooni!'
I guess I will leave it there for now, I will be working non-stop for the next couple of days... an exciting, yet exhausting thought *yawn*, and on that note, I shall bid thee farewell.

Good night, and if the bed bugs bite, let me know and I'll crochet you something - not sure what, but I intend to revolutionise the universe with my hook and yarn. xx

My evolution

Good morning!
So it all started when my aunt was visiting. Being a grandma and all, crochet was something of a routine activity... To pass the time she would crochet things for her family and neighbours and so decided she wanted to teach me! Me, being the overly zealous person that I am, began 'youtubing' and eventually taught myself...

It has since evolved from wonky looking shapes to the teeny, tiny little beauties (if I say so myself!) that I make and sell today.

I have a not so professional website:

...that I hope you will excuse but also enjoy looking through.

I have, over time, accumalated an extra-ordinary amount of yarn and other little bits and bobs ideal for this craft - most of which I STOLE from my sister* and also bought from 'value stores'** and also online.

Here are some more pics of a few things I have made recently that I thought you might like to see.

*(I use the word stole for added dramatic effect - I did actually obtain consent to rummage and utilize all of her amazing stash of STUFF)
**(A more decadant way of saying 'Cheapo Pound Shops')

Noob!

Hi everyone!

Blogging is something totally new to me but it looks like fun so I hope to get stuck in and have fun!
I'll be sharing my creations with you, mainly crochet items and perhaps a few other bits and bobs here and there to make things interesting!
