I wish you all a happy and healthy 2009.

Well I can't believe that it is already Febuary. Christmas and new years have just come and gone so fast. Harrison is now 8mths he has started crawling and standing I don't think that it will be long before he is off walking around the house.

Over the holidays I have found it a little hard to get much work done.

I have so many new ideas and designs that I want to try out.

November Cobbitty Markets

Well the corner shoppe is taking off really well. I have another lot of orders and the response has been very positive. My best seller by far would have to be the Taggie blankets. From what I hear , taggie blankets are all the rage in the UK and it seems they are starting to take off here. YEAH!

Harrison 5tmhs is showing just how much he loves his taggie blanket. They are so easy to wash and I place them straight into the dryer.

This is the new layout of my little corner shoppe and I just love it. It's so cute we have just added a small tent onto my mothers very lage tent and it's just enough room for me and my little creations.

There are 3 new additions to my November Market.

The ABC blocks priced at $30.00 for the 3 however I also do them with childrens names on the $10.00 per block or 5 or more letters at $8.00 per block.

The bandanna bibs (they have terry towling on the back) $8.00 each.

Burp cloths $15.00 each.

I'm looking forward to Decembers Market as I have a few other things that I want to create. Stay tuned.

Emily's Wedding

On Saturday the 18/10/08 was my little sister Emily's wedding to Joe. It was beautiful the weather was great and so was the day although there were a few times my sister almost lost it the day was just lovely. It was held up in the Blue mountians in Leura on the grounds of the fairmount resort. Her dress was just amazing and she looked beautiful in it.

This is a photo of the girls and me. I did each one of their hair do's along with the brides and the flower girls. Let's just say that I was buggered to say the very least. However they looked beautiful and the hair stayed up all night.

I made cookies for the guest staying at the resort that night.

It was a great day and night. It was a lovely oppitunity to catch up with family from SA.

Getting ready for Cobbitty

Well over the weekend I have been working hard on my stock for the cobbitty markets and I'm so excited. Hope it goes well. Here is a small example of some of the work I will be selling.

I hope people like it and it sells well. I have so much more stuff to show I will be taking photos on the day so will post them next week.

My sister is getting married on the 18/10 and has started getting really worried that she won't be able to do everything. But I have no doubt that she will complete eveything prior to the date and that the wedding will be the greatest sucess. She just needs to reduce her stress load. I have to post some photos of the hens night it was very funny.
