Really fed up with the rain now it seems never ending. Our garden is like a muddy bog - we’re having some work done in it at moment, which due to bad weather is taking a lot longer than expected, which makes letting Barney out to do his business a nightmare 😔 Roll on the Spring and hopefully some better weather.<br />Have a good day everyone.

I might take up on your offer one day.<br /><br />I sent you a photo this morning Sandra of a card that was by people working at Craftworld. It was sent to me after commenting on their show and it was made with the EF and tulip die from today's magazine review.<br /><br />No walk, rain and sleet outside. No cleaning or crafting today, body no good. I'm back on Co-codamol Sue but it's not working ,only making tummy bad too. Don't think I can get out of cooking tho tonight but hoping he want something easy :>)<br />Have a good day everyone, many hugs xxxMariahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05672255244916708700noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8956760013891051450.post-73437841662388502572021-01-30T12:00:13.823+00:002021-01-30T12:00:13.823+00:00Firstly WOW!

Thank you for your kind comments ...Morning ladies,<br /><br />Thank you for your kind comments on my wreaths.<br /><br />Fiona's was a bit problematic for me in that we couldn't find purple baubles etc. anywhere. Weeks later, during my craft room tidy up, I found a pot of dried up Pinflair Buff It in French Lavender and used it with a wet wipe to colour some silvery white plain baubles, pine cones, nuts and odd bits of potpourri, twigs etc. I make them only for family and friends. <br />As I explained to Sandra a couple of months ago, I don't want to be tied to an order book as when my children were young and being a single mum following a divorce, I started to make toys purely for raising funds for charity. and a bit of pin money. This turned into a cottage industry type small business. I was forever tied to my sewing machine and made myself quite ill. It was only when I had a collapsed lung, which put me in hospital for 3 months (due to complications and infections) that I finally said enough was enough. My Dad was telling me to sell them online but I didn't want to, it would destroy my pleasure in making and gifting them. <br />Saying that if anyone would like a wreath I would gladly make you one. My children's wreaths were created to their particular tastes and colour choices.<br /><br />Love 7 hugs<br />Cheryl xxx<br />cheryl brownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05890543787200668122noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8956760013891051450.post-23996063132689828532021-01-30T09:02:04.758+00:002021-01-30T09:02:04.758+00:00Hi Sandra and ladies

Both Sandra and Michele are right in saying that you could make a lot of money for your charity with them.<br />Yesterday I had a phone call at 5.45 from my surgery. Would I like the Covid jab, and if so could I go down straight away. Of course I said yes please. Left my dinner ( which I was halfway through ).and off I went. They apparently had a few doses over and didn’t want to waste them, so we’re ringing patients who lived quite close to the surgery. No ill effects at all.<br />Hope the birthday preparations go ok. Such a shame it will only be the 4 of you to celebrate.<br />It’s pouring with rain here and looks pretty miserable.<br />Take care and stay safe everyone.

The weekend is my time to clean, do the ironing etc plus crafting.<br /><br />Cheryl-the wreaths are absolutely gorgeous. Sandra is right in saying that you could sell them & raise money for charity.<br /><br />Great magazine review-I actually got this magazine but completely forgot about a review. I’m fact I’ve not done anything with the magazine or free gift. I’ve had emails about Simply Cards + Papercraft plus Diecutting Essentials saying that the next 3 issues wil all be delayed. They don’t give a reason, just that you won’t lose out on your subscription.<br /><br />Michele CraftyCoffeyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12776959710617654677noreply@blogger.com
