How are you all doing? I've been taking this time to list some more items in my Etsy shop. This dress is recently listed at £28 including p&p. It's a lovely floaty dress with ruffles and a patch… https://t.co/edeH7HQcs6

Vintage & Preloved Jewellery
.
These used to be very popular when I did craft and vintage fairs, so I thought I would dig out my stock and see what I have left, and there's far too much to keep it hidden. So I have… https://t.co/JGCwhbhhXm

I don't know why this came into my head today, but goodness knows how my head works anyway! But you can apply it to mostly anything.

My Happy Place
.
12 months ago today I went to visit this empty building with a view to taking a stall. At the time I was at a low point with my business and taking on a new venue didn't seem like the best idea, but… https://t.co/B37bhkYiYW

Fabric Remnants

I get all excited, really excited, when I get given fabric, even fabric scraps. These were given to me today and I can already see how they may make up into colourful bags. Anyone else the… https://t.co/kqknjjua0E

Big cabinet!

I've been looking for some new shelves for my stall for a few weeks for a new project, without success. Obviously I wanted some Preloved ones, and then I spotted this on fellow stall holders '2nd… https://t.co/gguXoagF95

Which one's the keeper?
.
Well that's what I usually say, but this time I'm keeping most of it for a while to enjoy as I love the colours of the fabric, pan and coat rail. The Italian jug and bowl set and the copper… https://t.co/n3BbXdN3ht

Stall 5 Grants Bulldog Forge
.
This is my space.
I love my space. The theme is recycled, reloved and upcycled. It probably reflects how my head works, a little bit of everything. It's nearly 12 months since I… https://t.co/dgdaiYQFGd

Headbands

I had a mess about with some old t shirt fabric at the weekend and this was the result. A selection of different sized 100% cotton headbands, some with the original print and some plain. They may need a… https://t.co/5HXGTIT7Fm

The Silver Chair
.
Well shades of grey and silver really. This chair gives the appearance of being small, but it's a regular dining chair height which makes it a great size for a dressing table, dining table or an… https://t.co/HyiUIcCgH3

#trashion

Apparently that's the new word for upcycled clothing, fashion from trash. I'm not sure how I feel about that one but here's a couple of my makes. A folksy style layered skirt and a tie dye t shirt, both… https://t.co/Ojo1yovjmc

Hornsea & Denby

Two lovely Hornsea mugs have made their way to my stall at Bygone Times today, along with this rather cute blue Denby coffee cup and saucer. If you love Hornsea pottery, Royal memorabilia or if… https://t.co/SObH26SFib

I've placed some for sale on my stall at Grants Bulldog Forge today. The patterns are cut, but complete, and many are unused. £4 each and happy to post. I have more in my stash and I'm… https://t.co/X0bGIrOMcr

Happy New Year

Endings & Beginnings

Every day is a new start, but at the turn of the year and the decade it seems more important. This year has been mostly challenging for me, but it's ending so much better than it started. I am… https://t.co/ZZZSAUPo5J
