Yep I'm still working out of a cardboard box in the house |
Hello, and sorry for missing Handmade Monday again, but at least I've made it to the computer in time for What's on your workbench Wednesday (WOYWW) hosted by Julia over at
stamping ground.

THE cardboard box. |
Well this week I bring good news. I decided that to tout for a little trade for my cards, and I have had success. I have invited to put my cards into a couple of shops. (This is 100% success rate - a first for me).
So as so many of you recommended them I have placed my order with craft creations and begun a production line.

OH even offered to cut out the bits of fabric, this made me laugh, as I'm not making that many. I think in truth it harked back to his teenage years, when his older brother Russell Willis, produced a little ceramic owl, that suddenly the whole world wanted to own. OH and his brothers, found themselves dragged into the older brother's production line as they desperately tried to keep up with orders. ( I have just been and checked and Russells work for big mass produced runs are for sale on ebay, but not his little handmade owls).
So with my production run in mind, I probably won't be calling by until the weekend, but I'll do my best as my sewing eyes fail quite early in the evening!
Great news on the card front, and they're very pretty little designs. The chickens are so cute!
