I have been very busy...

Making new items for my Craft Fayre at work on September 28th.

I have made craft themed earrings and scissor keepers...

 Scissor keepers made from recycled bracelet and craft charm.


My earrings are made with either my hand made beads or plastic beads. There are sewing, artist and knitting theme. These will be going in to my Etsy shop in October.

Ideas and plans for 2016...

  I have lots of plans and ideas for Hunny Crafts Primitives in 2016.

 

To begin with...

 

 I just want to remind everyone of my 50% off sale in my Etsy shop, which is running until the end of January. I will be adding more items to the sale over the next couple of weeks.

 

Now for my ideas and plans...

 

I am planning to hold 2 or maybe 3 Open Houses at my home this year and if they are successful I will make them an annual event.  At my Open Houses I will not only have my items for sale I plan to invite guest crafters to display their wares also.

 

I will still be organising the Craft Fayres at work.

 

I am also planning on holding classes and workshops in sewing and cross stitch to begin with both at my home and where I work and I will expand on the class and workshop subjects as the year goes on.

 

I have been gathering ideas for cross stitch and needle punch designs from literature and my photographs. I will share these with you in due course.

 

Works in progress...

 

I have picked up my knitting needles again, I have two works in progress, a blanket and a pretty vintage sweater from my 'Knit Vintage' book, the pattern dates from the 1950's.

The wool I am using is 4 ply mohair which is not the same as the book but I think it will have the same look.
