I'm back !

Hi Everyone, hope you are all having a crafty time. I have returned to Blogland after an industrious time creating items for my stall at a Charity Coffee Morning in aid of Macmillan Cancer. It went quite well for a small event in the local Breakfast Club hall at a nearby school. We had quite a lot of visitors buying cakes and coffee and looking at the stall. I didn't get a chance to take a picture of the stall at the venue but here are a couple of pics of my practice layout on my kitchen table, lol, the night before.



Excuse the dresser and cups in the background, but I wanted to have a practice go and see what it looked like. As you can see I have been quite busy. Most of my Christmas packs of cards sold in no time and lots of the covered notepads and Post It note holders sold too. The bundles of Christmas tags were very popular, I wished that I had made more of them. Well, it all turned out ok and we raised quite a bit for the charity so I was very pleased as this was only the second time I've had a stall, I'm quite a newbie at it. Here are a few close ups of some of my items....

 
 
Some 4 x 4 cards sold in packs of 6
 
A6 cards sold in packs of 4
 
Decorated Trinket Box
 
Wall Hanging
 
Door Hanger
 
 
I really enjoyed making some different things. I usually just make cards and it was very inspiring to venture in to other areas of craft  and jewellery making for a change. Now I have quite a bit of catching up to do visiting everybody's blogs, so I will see you there.

Newbie

Hi, this is my first day of Blogging. 
I've overcome one or two snags and gremlins and here I am. Hopefully things will become clearer and less confusing as I go along. I found it quite challenging to set this up lol.
If anyone has some tips on creating blogs I would welcome them, thanks.

I hope you enjoy visiting my craft room now and again in the future and look forward to reading your comments.

Lorraine. :)
