Bad, Good and Shininess!


I fell over last night.  A fall tends to start the bad thoughts...  I'm so I'll, it's been nearly 17 years, I can't even walk to the bathroom without falling, it's never going to get better...  I had to consciously stop those thoughts and focus on the good. 



Luckily it was a great day for positive things - I was announced as a member of like for ever kit club's first design team.  And when the positive things are hard to find I need to make them, create them, pull them out from under wherever they are hiding.

I was messaging my sister in law over the weekend.  She said she was sorry things were a bit shitty. I replied the shittiness will pass.  I must only have typed one t and auto correct changed it to shininess.  This is what I need to do.  I need to set my internal auto correct to switch from shittiness to shininess.  And with that thought, I'm off to make some art...

Thanks for stopping by and letting me share my news!

Hello, Happy Whats On Your Workdesk Wednesday !  As promised a picture of last Wednesdays 'work' finished off.  Post and more photos here . This week I'm showing off the beaded ATC I made... Tricky to photograph so your getting one with flash and one without... It was all parcelled up and sent off to Queen of Desks Julia .  Here is a basic of how it was made... (lots of waffle about wefts and warps!) I use a flexible beading needle.  It is mainly 'eye' so it is very easy to thread. And delica beads which are more regular and accurate than the better known seed bead.  They are slightly more rectangular than round so they line up better. Thread your needle with the weft thread.  (The cross ways thread that weaves back and forth.)  Pick up the beads... Pass the needlefull of beads underneath the warp (tight length ways) threads on the loom... ...and push each bead u...

Hoppity!

Hoppity hoppity!!  :) Hopeful you have arrived here from Fleur 's blog as part of the Crafty Ribbons Easter Hop .  If not and you've found yourself here wondering what on earth I'm on about (and let’s face it J you wouldn’t be the first!!) check out the Inspirations site for all the juicy details! My project for the hop is         Easter bunting!  I cut three templates first - a triangle pennant, a bird and a heart.        Then I cut the pennant shapes from fibre ribbon, threaded them on to some 3mm satin and evenly spaced them.  I embellished each flag with some beads...       I backed the birds and heart on some thin white card and glued them to the centre of the pennants.   My supplies list: yellow fibre , pink fibre , lime fibre , 3mm satin , button box , white card, glue, beads, needle and thread.   ...
