I have been pretty busy over the past couple of week, but have still found time to put together a few choice pieces for my Etsy Shop. here is a sneak preview, they will be available on Etsy on Monday.

My new flooring

Well this is one of my resolutions almost completed for this year. I have purchased my flooring for my kitchen, just waiting on my brother to lay it. It’s going to look fab.

Like many of you, I watched in horror as news emerged from Haiti about the disastrous earthquake. For those of you who publish your blog with Blogger, Blogger would like to invite you to contribute money to the Red Cross's international disaster relief effort. The Red Cross assures us that 100% of the money raised is going to disaster relief efforts in Haiti.

Foot Prints

I have never been into blogging, but having set up my Etsy Shop, I have been advised that I need to put foot prints across the web. I have come across some wonderful sites that show off amazing amount of creative talents. I take my hat off to you all.

2010

Starting a New Year make you look back and do a bit of reflection. I have for years worn separates, mainly because I have rather large breast for my height, yes a double challenge finding clothes that fits a large busted short person, not easy. However in the process of putting together my ETSY Shop Collection it has allowed me to let go of my ridged fashion sense, consequently I have decided to make a make and wear more dresses this year.

While you are here, what do you enjoy wearing and what challenges do you face when buying clothes

HAPPY NEW YEAR TO YOU ALL

I carried out an old age tradition, opening my front door to let the new year in and opening the back door to let the old year out. Call it coincidence but there was an eruption of fireworks to the font of the house. Hope this means A GOOD YEAR. hmmmm...

Anticlimax and Beyond 2009

Well we are near the end of 2009, and yet I feel there are so many unfinished promises that have not been delivered. I will have to make my list shorter for 2010 and I suppose more achievable, but whats life if not a challenge.

1: I am starting early as I need to clear up the residue of 2009, however one important wish for 2010, I would like get a new job. I would want it to be in the same setting, working with children or mental health clients, love the work.....Having posted it, I wait to see what comes in.

2: There are a lot of small things I need to finish, to begin with my bedroom curtains. I have bleached some hessian but need to complete the curtains and get the rod hung in place also hang the picture which has been sitting in the corner for ever. As I am in my bedroom, I really need to clear out my ward rode, too many jackets I do not use.

3: The bathroom ceiling needs painting, painted it once but the paint cracked, a must do in 2010, also paint the door and lay new flooring.

4: Toilet needs new cistern, makes enough noise to wake the dead, but i like the quaint old shape.

5: Spare room needs attention, leaking from missing tiles on roof, more money.

6: Would like to repaint the hallway????????????????

7: Lounge need commercial carpet cleaner, scrubbing on my hand an knees is not getting the results I would like.
I would like to cover three piece suite, seen the fabric I like, it's amazing..............
If I get to recover the suite, I will definitely need to redecorate hmmmm!!!!!

8: Kitchen, need to lay laminate, bought from EBay three months ago, need two extra packs. Also quick lick of paint

9: Need new double glazing, but that's not going to be possible, but do need to change one of the windows as the seal is gone

10: Garden definitely needs a new shed, and fence needs painting. Gutters needs cleaning.
DON'T YOU JUST HATE HOSE MAINTENANCE it never ends and it always cost.

11: Need to feel in proposal for new project before the 15 of Jan.

12: Spread the word about my ETSY SHOP. Love it. This gives me an opportunity to use all the fabric I love collecting. Just love fabrics.

13: For me, make some dresses, always makes skirts. Needs a change. Seen some amazing fabrics. just can' help myself.

Me thinks that's enough to be getting on with.
