Hello There!

Where has the time gone?

It has been weeks since I last blogged, I just can't believe how long I have been away.

Anyway things here have settled down nicely.

Kevin is back at work after a long 6 months with out work. He has been helping me in the shop

but generally just getting under my feet, like men do!

Now I can get back into my routine which is great and concentrate on my crafting

and of course the shop.

Here are this weeks class projects.

Hope you enjoy looking at them.

Good News!!!!

Hello everyone!
Well it has been a lone time since I have blogged and I have missed it.
Things have been a bit up & down here and I have just not felt like blogging.
Christmas Eve Kevin was made redundant from work and it was a bit of a blow
but we did not let it spoil Christmas, well you can't can you.
He is still out of work and things will be tough for a while but I am sure we will get through it,
we have before.

Now on to a brighter note, I am not sure I have done the right thing but when opportunity knocks you grab it with both hands!
I am opening a craft shop!!!
It is only two units in our local indoor market but it is a start.
We have spent the last month getting it ready.

Grand Opening

JB-Crafting Supplies
Saturday 13th February 2010

bye for now.
