Thought I’d give a quick update on one of the things I have been up to this weekend, other than wistfully looking at the bandsaw I cannot yet use to its potential! Made some little bottletop magnets (go homebrew section of Wilkos!) and put my little resin pieces I...
I collected this yesterday to start making my acrylic pieces… it will work really well when I have a thinner, finer blade. Tried to make a duck shape and had to keep reversing out of the piece due to it not taking corners well, but should sort itself out...
I promised that I would show pictures of the rockpool locket ring and I didn’t! Here’s the pictures now. I wasn’t hugely happy with how it came out, but it was an experiment, the lady who bought it is happy though, and I gave her a free goldfish necklace...

Last night, I was planning on going to go to bed, but then somehow the UK Etsy Street Team forum thread took over and I ended up with 3 orders within an hour for my little plastic tags! Vicky from Old Bag (blog link to the right) started the...
I’m so excited, just ordered some Moo cards, the new full size ones. With postage, they are about £14 for 50, but each can have a different picture, so it’s a unique service. I hope they come out! If you want to have a look to see what all...
