Lovely week

I must have had my lucky pants on all week cos I've won 3 things this week!

First of all I won a lovely new banner for my Folksy shop, courtesy of bonnitagraphics... and lovely it is. She sent me the first draft and I liked it immediately!

Then I won a gorgeous make your own butterfly charm kit from EllieBJewels.

Then today I have won a lovely felt flower brooch from LisaHafey!

I wonder what next week will bring! Hopefully I will receive my item from the Folksy swap.... mine will be sent off on Monday, I hoped it's liked!

I'm so excited!!!

I've just been informed that I was picked out of a draw to get a free banner made for my shop on Folksy!!! This is the first thing I have won since joining in the blogging.

http://www.folksy.com/shops/bonnitagraphics - I've seen some of her designs on here and she is amazing!

Can't wait to see the designs...... I'm sure I'll be checking my emails at every opportunity tomorrow now!!!!
Feeling much better this morning.... the pain in my neck and shoulder seems to have subsided... God bless modern medicine eh!!!

So, off to work in half hour but when I get home I will be resuming crafting - still have a couple of custom orders to complete before continuing with my stock up for the craft fair on 23rd May - EEEEEKK!!!!

Not good!!

Help!!!!

Woke up yesterday morning in agony with my should and arm, felt like i'd pulled something. Turned out hubby had noticed during the night that I was laid funny on my arm, so he tried to move it... unfortunately he moved it the wrong way!!!
Been docs tonight and I've trapped a nerve in my neck/shoulder.... so my jewellery making is kinda on hold at the moment!

Sunday 9 May 2010

Had a lovely day, step-daughters party was... interesting to say the least! Been out delivering my local orders and came back with more orders so all in all a good day!! That was until I just sat down to eat my fish, potato wedges and mushy peas and I accidentally swallowed the ball off my tongue bar AAARRRGGHHH!!!

Fun Day!

Well I have a busy day today! I'm off to my step-daughters' 2nd birthday party now. Followed by a copuple of trips out to deliver orders to friends and family and to sell some more of my jewels hopefully!

My best friends mum wants me to help her with a beading set she has bought... God knows why, she makes cards (and beautiful they are too!) I hope she doesn't try and go into business against me!

My first!!!

Well here it is... I've finally set up my blog!!! It's been a long time coming as I was worried about how much time I would actually have to set itup etc... turns out it only took me 3 minutes!!!!

Pics from my shop will be posted shortly and also news of any competitions I run.

I recently ran one on Facebook whereby when I reached 150 members in my group

then I would give away an item from my shop. Said item has not been decided on as yet as I am waiting for hubby to pick but the winner has been picked. Another target challenge will be added shortly.

If you are on Facebook please become a fan of my group.
