 NOW THE HOLLY BEARS A BERRY....

Hello lovely Deskers, another Wednesday rolls around and once again we share our projects at Sarah's Craft Shed, linking up with folk around the world.

I'm afraid it's full on Christmas here:



I'm making gnomes are little thank-yous for all the help I've received recently. I had the stash so am using it up. Flat gnomes look a bit sad don't they?!

That's better, one down, a few to go,,,,


I had to make a few more lengths of bunting too as the last lot all went....


But there's some non festive crafting going on as well! That rather groovy 60s fabric is being cut up for tote bags as I've only got two left. The green plastic bag has five Terry's Chocolate Oranges inside for the last craft fair I'm doing on Friday - I have resisted so far *grin*  They'll be going into the knitted Christmas pud covers that an RNLI friend made.

The last Dunelm stall was quieter than the first week but we still made £250! So that's £820 total between the three stalls so far. I'd love to think I'd crack the £1k but don't think that's going to happen on Friday - it's still very pleasing though!


I swapped to the warmer side of the entrance aisle and layered up well so wasn't as cold this time! It was a fun day and I was helped by my friend Kim in the morning and my SiL Jill in the afternoon, the time went very quickly!

Hope you have a good week, may it be happy, healthy and full of crafting xxxx

Glad you had another successful sale with your lovely goodies. £820 is a massive amount so you deserve a big pat on the back. You work so hard.
Love the photo of you with your stand and that groovy fabric is terrific.
Lovely to see gnome production on again, I loved my one I bought last year. I smiled at the tartan circle in the photo - made me think of a gnome wearing a tam o shanter.
Hugs, Neet 1 xx

Well done you! That’s a great total so far that you’ve raised. I hope this Friday is as good. It’s a lovely photo of you behind your stall. I had a look to see if there were any felt Xmas pud tree decorations, as I love mine and even wore them as earrings (attached to a headband) for one online Xmas quiz. 😀. Couldn’t see any though. Your gnomes are cute, though.
Take care and happy WOYWW

Well done with your stalls. Remember the day when I topped £1000 at a 3 day craft fair. It really makes you try and try when the total is so near. Hope you reach your target. Craftyani xx
