Its that time again..........................................................

Handmade Monday Yayyyyyyyyyyyyy  so pop over to all the amazing blogs on Wendys page and make some comments as we love comments <3 <3
This week I had an order for a flowery bag it was from a lovely young lady who is training in hairdresssing, she styled my daughters hair for her prom and she looked amazing so I said as a thank you to have a look at my hand made items to see if there was anything she liked I was already planning on making a sort of hairdressing roll for her (somewhere to store her brushes and scissors etc) but she said she would like a bag
Here are the finished items

I delivered them on Thursday and she was very pleased the fabric was lovely and very summery xxx

My eldset Daughter flew out to Vancouver this week so the house is feeling empty and quiet again and this week will be even more quiet as the middle daughter goes off to cadet camp.seems like I may have some time on my hands???? which is just as well as I am going to a local craft fair called Tabletops where I will be demonstrating my encaustic art I am hoping that people will enjoy watching and maybe buy some paintings so I have a lot of things to pack and organise
What  a rainy wekend it has been I got a really cool photo yesterday of a beautiful rainbow


 notice in the 2nd picture you can see a double rainbow it was stunning and the last one was cool as you could nearly see both ends I LOVE RAINBOWS XXXX
 See you all next week hoping to fill you in on the craft fair xx

  3. Hello the bag and roll are lovely. I am sure she was very pleased and the best thing is hers are unique. I agree about the eyesight thing. I am ah hem past 40 and found my eyesight going needles are a nightmare and cooking was by experience and not the instructions on the packet lol but it does come to us all and I have had to go and have my eyes checked and have glasses although only a slight prescription. I was told wait for it "its your age". I really didn't think I was really old I still think I'm young at 45 although people haven't started to stand up to let me sit on the bus yet - mainly because I don't use them lol!!
