Etsy moving a little slow this month...

So September was a great month in my little Etsy shop...but this month has been very slow...and not without trying! I am hoping it picks up next month or in a couple of weeks time for the Christmas season. Fingers crossed!

I had an early class this morning so I had to get up early, however it gives me lots of time in the early afternoon to catch up, which I kind of did. I managed to make two new signs (photos to follow shortly!) and completed an order :) Much better!

Now to go back into work for two more classes and then that´s me done for the day :)

I am however dreading tomorrow....I have a class that went horribly last week and I am not looking forward to it. Cross your fingers for me...I need all the luck I can get with this one!!!

Happy Thursday everyone! x

Handmade Signs...

I have some blank signs I really need to get on with tomorrow...I hate having fabric or materials just sat there when they could made and put together to got into my etsy shop! :)

So this and my friends order of a table runner must be done tomorrow! One more day of my long Spanish bank holiday left and I intend on using to it´s fullest. As well as topping up the sleep levels ;)

The photo is a pic I took of the sign I have custom made for a friend of mine.....Milo was in posey mode..so I took full advantage!

So....a very good friend of mine who has the similar disease of obsessed with sewing running through her blood, commented that she reads my blog but I don´t write much on here...so I am going to try and change that! :) lol

I must first of all tell you how excitied I am......I recieved an order yesterday for some of my little gingerbread men.....from the Ralph Lauren store in New york!!!! :) How excitied am I????

1 x pack of ginerbread men and 1 x pack of gingerbread ladies :) Cross your fingers this leads to exciting things!!!!

Not much to report...I´m back at the day job :( BOOOO! So its been limiting my time for sewing...however, this weekend is a long bank holiday and considering I am meant to be cleaning the apartment and so far I have only cleaned my studio...you can tell where I am going to be spending it :) hee hee

So I will leave you all with my excitied feeling and promise to keep you posted. Happy Weekend everyone! :) x x

Christmas...Christmas...Christmas...

I think my Christmas bug is contagious :) It´s spreading rapidly!!!

My little shop has been busier than ever and unindated with orders and sewing each night and packing orders :) One happy bunny! Here are some examples of my new items.... (see photos)
Happy Thursday everyone...must dash...orders to sew!!!

3 Orders in 3 days! :)

Ok...so admittedly from friends and family...but still! :) Plus they are not all small orders! If I could keep this up every month I would be one happy bunny. It is nice to be putting orders together again and packing them up to be sent to their new homes :) I am having to go and buy some more fabric this afternoon..I´m runing out! .) JOY!

The Pic is of my best seller...these little guys are flying out! Happy Tuesday everyone! x x

I´m dreaming of a handmade Christmas...

I´m dreaming of a handmade christmas :) Oh yes...!!

I´m really into the swing of deisging my Christmas range, and I am getting lots of inspiration by watching some christmas cooking programmes Victor downloaded for me :) Good old Nigella and Jamie have been really making me feel fesitive! It also helps that the weather the last few days has been rubbish and I haven´t wanted to do anything but sew in front of the TV :) Luuush!

Only two weeks of half term left so I am getting my fill while I can!

Check out the etsy shop guys!!!:

Handmade Halloween...

It´s all getting very Halloween-ish over at mine. I got creative and spent most of the afternoon making these three Halloween Plushes :) I love them! I´m currently designing three Christmas ones as we speak.

Oh! Happy Friday everyone! Wishing you all a wonderful weekend x
