Handmade Monday Makes

Morning all! Welcome to another week and the last day of January, wow that went quickly!

It's handmade Monday on http://www.1stuniquegifts.co.uk/blog/ why not pop over to have a look at what everyone is making and join in yourself. 

Here is my make for today, he's a bit lonely so I may have to make him a friend or two.

FRIDAY!

Well Friday has come around very quickly!  I don't know where the days go really. 

My aim in 2011 is to make a huge effort to spread the word about me and my creations.  I made absolutely zero effort last year, I think that after a few disastrous 'craft fairs'  my confidence levels dropped.  In the past I tended to make items for children ie pencil cases

but they didn't seem to be very popular.  I ended up giving them to friends children for birthday presents. I also made children's aprons again didn't sell well.  Anyway to cut a long story short I am going to try to avoid children's item for the moment.

I have heard that blogging is a good way to spread the word about yourself etc but how much of that is true I don't know.  Off to 'clean' the bowl after making some fairycakes!  Toodle oo!

First blog

Well I have finally decided to catch up with the rest of the world and this is my first blog.  I don't really know what to say so I'm off to have a look at some other peoples blogs.
