DE-CLUTTERING PROJECT

CROCHET GRANNY SQUARE BLANKET...FINISHED!

 

 

Finally Its done!

And after all this time of occasionally dragging it out of my sewing room to do a bit more, and each time I finished a square, throwing it on top of the pile with the other squares I'd already finished, I was thinking, this is going to be a nice sized throw rug! Hmmmm well as you can see it actually turned out to be more like a small knee rug....oh well, at least its finished, and I do love how it turned out and the colours are lovely. :-)
 

 

But now should I put it here?

 

 

Or here?

 

So... now to decide what my de-cluttering project for April is going to be!

I have to go now so I'll get back to you with that.

 

Bye for now

Furniture Restoration etc.

 

LATEST PIECE OF FURNITURE RESTORED BY H AND MYSELF!

 

Sorry I've taken so long to get back on line. I've had a really busy few months getting ready for our sauce weekend, and with the closing down of STUDIO89, where I was selling my restored furniture and other bits and pieces from.I am now thinking on how to go about selling my goodies and am working on a few ideas I've had. So I'll let you know when I get myself organised.The dressing table pictured above will be one of the items for sale, along with other pieces I'm working on, plus home made candles, some china, etc. etc.
As for my de-cluttering task for February, I could tell you I finished it in February but haven't had a chance to post my report yet... but I cant tell a lie. I've decided to make it my task for March.. easy fixed, seeing as I only have to answer to myself :-) And myself said " No problem, it's only a month later than you planned and you've had other much more important things happening...don't be so hard on yourself." So now I feel much better, since the pressure is off. :-)

I'll be back soon.

I'M BACK!

STUDIO89

STUDIO89

Well I know I said I'd be back with exciting news about STUDIO89, and I do have news, just not the same news I had before.

STUDIO89 will be open this Thursday 14th,10am till 1pm, Friday 15th, 10am till 3pm, Saturday 16th, 10am till 3pm and as Sunday17th is the Merbein Market day we will be open 8am till 1pm. This will be our last day in the Studio as someone is interested in buying the building. So if you're out and about and looking for somewhere interesting to have a browse come and check it out, some of the stock will be on sale for these last few days. Its a little sad that we're closing but I don't think it will be for long. All of us who are involved in STUDIO89 are keen to find another avenue to sell our art work, furniture/ bird houses and more, made out of reclaimed timber, pressed tin, and other old bits and pieces. Restored furniture and lots more interesting curio. In the meantime we will keep working on our handy work, and I'll say again, stay posted for more on this later.
(PS) DON'T FORGET MERBEIN MARKET DAY SUNDAY 17TH MARCH 8AM TILL 1PM. THERE'S LOTS TO SEE!

Painted Glassware

My New Tangent!

 

 

I really don't have time to be doing this today, with our big sauce making weekend in a few days, but I just had to share it with you.

I've been experimenting with painting glassware to make ornamental objects, with some success and some... not so much success :-\
