Pushing water up hill!

Hello again :0 just a short blog. i've been thinking about having a place where i can have some interaction with other crafters. Its a lonely place to be and trying to find Crafterholics is a bit like "pushing water up hill", anyhow I come up with a face-book page. Its somewhere I can upload all my photos to and hopefully others will join in and share their makes too! I don't get much time to socialize really so the chance to chat to other people and here there crafting stories is pretty non existent...so please come and say hi to me :( are you feeling sorry for me yet??? at Crafty'z Corner and please feel free to upload some of your hand crafted goods.


After the completion of "The knitted camper van" I started to knit a 5" mouse, it was very easy and i learned how to knit a star in the process! it only took a few hours and the pattern was free, which made it all the more enjoyable to make.

 "Button Mouse"


I have also been able to make a bit of jewellery this week, but my fingers are still quite sore from all the wire work...I think I need to toughen up! I made a few Button rings and a simple Button Tiara ( I love buttons) I have so many ideas for button jewellery but I cant do it yet, as my hands split :( but I will be patient and take my time.
 



 Sadly i have lots of assignments to hand in over the next few weeks so i will only be making quick things for a while.


 I also have a lampshade that I can hear calling me....cant wait to get my hands on it, but id rather wait until I have more time to spare. Here is a picture of my last lamp shade dressing :) EVERYONE who visits us comments on how "Funky" it is.










Well thats it from me, thanks for dropping by and don't forget you can find me on fb at www.facebook.com/HandCraftedGoods or on Twitter @singblogger
