Look what I bought!!



This is SO gorgeous I just had to tell EVERYONE about it!

As soon as I saw the brooch in
www.folksy.com/shops/elliestreasures
I had to have it!
Unfortunately it was 3 weeks until payday, I had no pennies in my Paypal account so I thought I'd have lost out.
I commented on how beautiful it was in the Folksy forums and Ellie emailed me to say she would reserve it for me if I wanted.

So, payday came and off I trotted to Ellies shop and there it was, reserved just for me.

It came today and it is so much more beautiful than than the picture, which is fantastic enough!

So here it is guys..... the new addition to my family lol:

What a weekend!

Well I've had an aMAZING week off work, chilling out in the sun, spending time with hubby.

I took him to see P!nk perform at Alton Towers yesterday as his anniversary pressie - FANTASTIC! It's the 3rd time I've seen her and she never fails to excite me. Her shows are full of fun and acrobats and she is a proper stunt woman!

Did a craft stall at the local Summer Event Saturday, which went really well. Had quite a lot of sales and really looking forward to the next one now - which is THIS SATURDAY!!! On a smaller scale though, this one is at a local nursery so I need to get lots of kiddie jewellery made up!

Back to work tomorrow - BOOOOOO - But at least I only have to work for 3 days before having another 3 days off LOL...... Ooooooh then Friday night i'm off to Meadowhall cionema to watch Eclipse. In fact, it's better than that...... cos we're watching ALL 3 IN A ROW!!!!!

Team Edward all the way!!!

Week off work!

Really enjoying my week off so far. It was our 2nd wedding anniversary on Monday and we went to Drayton Manor for the day..... I now have a very red and sore burnt neck LOL!!! But was a fab day, and hubby insisted on buying ANOTHER dodgy "on-ride" photo. God knows why he likes them, they have to be the LEAST flattering pictures ever!

Had my new tattoo started yesterday too. It's bigger than I originally thought it would be but I LOVE it. The intricacy of the design is amazing. Won't be having it finished until thr linework has healed in a couple of weeks but then I'll be showing it off to everyone LOL!

June Loons - Well..... I've managed to list an item every day this month, and so far I have had 13 sales! That's the best i've done in a month on Folksy up to yet! That isn't counting the orders I've had from elsewhere, so I'm really impressed with myself. Seems this jewellery making lark really IS for me!

Tuesday 8 June 2010

Finally my TV and internet are back up and running... hubby has been doing his nut without TV for 2 and a half days!!!

Well it gave me chance to get a few new pieces made, ready to list for my June Loons month on Folksy!

Friday 4 June 2010

Day off!!!!

Well what a lovely day it is today! The sun is shining, and it's payday LOL (well, hubbys payday anyway!)

So far so good on the June Loon Folksy listing frenzy, i've managed 4 days up to now and I'm sure I have enough stock to continue for the forseeable future!

About to take the car n find out how much it's gonna cost me to get it through the MOT.... I could be in trouble :(

Off out tonight for dinner, can't wait!
