Too much twittering?

I've not really used twitter much but had a good go on it today, so much so that i got the fail whale! I love this picture, it's so cute. I thought i was special but my other half says he gets this all the time. It's cute, better than the broken sofa over on folksy! Follow me if you fancy it!

Not Massed Produced

Have you seen notmassproduced.com? I've listed a few items on my shop there over the last few weeks. I've also been looking at what other lovely items are for sale on there and have picked a few of my favourites to share with you.

First up is this lovely Silhouette brooch from Becca Williams.


I love this ceramic pendant by Anne Williams. See Anne's shop for more great pendants and brooches. I love them!


And finally, these lush violet hoops from Quercus Silver. Must say i love anything from Quercus Silver, see the rest of the shop here.

Buying and selling craft

I have spent loads of time online shopping this week but only have two things to show for the hours I've spent on folksy and other online stores. There are so many lovely handmade things it's hard to decide what to buy.

My first purchase this week was a lovely dark brown leather phone case from Evie who runs Milomade on folksy. It's custom made for my phone with my choice of dark brown leather and teal stitching.

I love it! I only ordered it Wednesday and it had arrived by Saturday morning, that is great service. It's perfect, so thanks Evie. Check out Evie's shop Milomade for similar items and other great stuff.

I have also been online looking for things to buy a good friend for a birthday present. After hours of searching i decided to buy something rather lovely from Notes, can't tell you what it is yet as i haven't given it to her. This is the kind of thing that Notes sells. A lovely clutch purse made with Amy Butler’s Martini in Mustard fabric.

Also getting her something else made but that's top secret for now, will post about it next week.

So that is the buying now to the selling. I had my first sale from my shop on Coriandr.com. I haven't spent much time on the forums or on my shop but am pleased to have sold one thing on there. I'm also pleased as it was a blank pen pot to sew your own buttons on, as much as i love sewing them on I'm also happy for someone else to do it! There are still more in stock if anyone is interested!
